Taking care of a
poodle puppy involves attention to their grooming, diet, training, and health.
Here's a basic guide:
1. Nutrition
· Feed high-quality puppy food (formulated for small,
medium, or large breeds depending on your poodle type: toy, miniature, or
standard).
· Establish a feeding schedule (2–3 times a day).
· Provide fresh water at all times.
2. Grooming
· Brush daily to prevent mats and tangles.
· Bathe monthly or as needed.
· Trim their coat every 4–6 weeks (professional grooming is recommended).
· Clean ears weekly and check for infections.
· Brush teeth 2–3 times a week and clip nails regularly.
3. Exercise & Play
· Poodles are intelligent and energetic—provide daily walks
and playtime.
· Use toys that challenge them mentally and physically.
4. Training & Socialization
· Start basic commands and potty training early.
· Socialize with people, other pets, and environments.
· Enroll in puppy training classes if possible.
5. Healthcare
· Schedule regular vet checkups.
· Keep up with vaccinations, flea/tick prevention, and
deworming.
· Discuss spaying/neutering with your vet.
