Feeding tip - Determine what type of food you will be feeding your poodle

Determine what type of food you will be feeding your poodle. Many people choose to feed poodles just a dry kibble, while some people prefer canned food. Canned food is easier for dogs to chew and digest, but can lead to extremely dirty teeth.

Owner guide - Feed your poodle

Feed your poodle a nutritious diet with the proper balance of protein, carbs, fats, fiber, vitamins and minerals. If feeding a commercial dog food, choose a quality brand with meat as the first ingredient.

Owner guide - Take your poodle for regular medical

Take your poodle for regular medical and dental checkups and stay current on vaccinations, flea and heartworm preventative. You can also do a monthly home exam of the skin, eyes, ears, nose, teeth and gums. Have your poodle’s teeth scaled professionally; ask your vet or a teeth-cleaning professional to recommend a schedule.

Preventative dental maintenance can include: feeding dry dog food (which can be mixed with canned or moist), tartar-control biscuits as treats and safe tartar-control chew toys. You may also choose to brush your poodle’s teeth with a dog toothpaste.
