The Teacup Poodle is a very tiny dog. It is smaller than a Toy Poodle. The Teacup Poodle ranges in weight from two to four pounds. The Toy Poodle is ten pounds at maturity. The Teacup Poodle is one of those dogs which people love to dress in different outfits. They are groomed to have bows in their hair and usually taken to a salon for grooming treatments. These dogs are very pleasant dogs to have around because they are non-shedding and love companionship. They are intelligent, perceptive and elegant dogs. They are very obedient and really are very patient with their sometimes very strange owners.

They are usually carted around in a ladies purse or a designer carrier. They are always the center of attention and are quite popular in Hollywood. Celebrities love this dog because of its size and because they can take it anywhere they go. They need to be consistently groomed to keep their fur free from matting and messiness, but the time needed to groom such a tiny dog is very short.

Teacup Poodles are rather expensive dogs. They are so popular now that a Teacup puppy can run anywhere from eight hundred to one thousand dollars. They can be carried in a pocket or a purse and are extremely popular dogs. They are available in many colors and their country of origin is France.

They were used as performers for entertainment purposes. The early years of royalty caught on to the craze of the performing Poodles and most had Poodles with them courtside. They soon became very pampered pets, a trait which has carried on today. But one must consider the Teacup Poodle's size when choosing a Poodle for a family pet.

Teacup Poodles evolved with the same traits and plus these tiny dogs are absolutely adorable. It is very important when choosing a Teacup Poodle for your family pet to consider the breed's four pound size if you have young children in the household.

Teacup Poodles can be easily trained but one must remember that this is a very tiny dog and cannot jump up on a sofa or bed by itself. If the Teacup Poodle were to fall off a bed or a sofa they could break a leg because they are very delicate and fragile dogs. Toy Poodles the next size up are more sturdy and agile, but the Teacup needs to be treated as a baby. Some people get the idea of fragile confused with sickly. These are not sickly dogs and they do not get sick more than any other dog. They have a hearty constitution even though they are just tiny dogs.

However healthy these dogs are they are considered to be quite fragile and delicate. They cannot jump off or on a bed or sofa and must be watched carefully so they do not fall off. They can very easily break one of their legs if they were to fall off a bed or a sofa.

Teacup Poodles do use up their energy fast and will suffer from low sugar, but a quick fix with a small meal will remedy this situation. One must always remember this is a tiny dog and should be treated as such.
