7. Possible health problems
Poodles are a generally healthy breed, but they can be predisposed to some genetic disorders. Minor ear and eye problems are some of the most common, as well as hip dysplasia. Standard poodles can also be prone to bloat, a painful and potentially fatal condition caused by excess gas accumulation in the stomach. Toy and miniature poodles are more likely to have luxating patellas and other orthopedic issues. Choosing a good breeder can help reduce the chances of these health issues.
