Foodle Breed Details
The Foodle, as a crossbreed, is not an official member of any breed group. No info exists about the specific origin of this hybrid, but the Foodle was likely developed as part of the "designer dog" explosion in the U.S. in the late 20th century. These energetic dogs make fun-loving, enthusiastic pets for families of any size.
A few Foodle facts: depending on the size of the Poodle parent, Foodles can vary a good bit in size--but most have Toy or Miniature Poodle parents, so they average 10-12 inches at the shoulders in height and 9-13 pounds in weight; their coats can be wavy to curly or short and fine (or more likely, somewhere in between); and like both parent breeds, Foodles are highly energetic.
