Distinct Differences: Poodle vs. Teddy Breed Comparison

Differences Between Poodles and Teddy Poodles:

1. The most apparent distinction between Poodles and Teddy Poodles lies in their styling. Beyond this, there are few other notable differences. However, it's important to note that not all Poodles can be styled as Teddy Poodles. There are specific criteria that must be met. The Teddy Poodle style, which is a beautiful variation of the Poodle breed, includes looks like the athletic style, European continent style, and more. Poodles that meet these criteria, after undergoing grooming and styling, will resemble a cute teddy bear, almost like a fluffy ball. Poodles that are suitable for the Teddy Poodle style tend to have rounder faces.

2. Color: The primary colors are red and chocolate, with the styling being on the pricier side. However, personal preferences vary, with some people preferring black or apricot shades. If a white Poodle has its fur left long on the mouth, it might start to resemble a Bichon Frise.

3. Fur: When purchasing a pet dog, one often examines the coat. A dense, curly coat, reminiscent of lamb's wool, is preferable. Additionally, the curliness of the fur on the dog's ears is a plus, with more pronounced curls being better.

4. Size: A standard Poodle typically weighs no more than 4kg, allowing owners to cuddle them like a plush toy, holding them close at any moment. Besides the miniature Poodles, there are also standard Poodles. However, standard Poodles are not ideal for the Teddy Poodle style and are better suited for other grooming styles.
