Story
Cumin is a standard poodle that we've had since he was a small puppy! He's nothing but a bundle of energy and full of love. He is very affectionate and clings to his family and those he's grows close to. Cumin has always been a beautiful dog even now! He loves his chuck-it ball, playing in fetch in yards and dog parks and he love long walks and solving his puzzles. Although he's high-energy, Cumin is great at matching pace with his owner's energy levels and temperament. He's good with children and other kids but he is a jumper and sometimes he can get a little 'too' excitable when interacting with other dogs or children. As we do not have any kids of our own, he'd need to be trained. Cumin is very gentle, smart and inquisitive, however. So he's a fast learner! However, he does have an unresolved skin issue. I have taken him to the vet here in Seattle and have gotten some temporary fixes like antibiotics and soaking solution for his paws that worked. But I can't afford anything more.

Poodle fun facts

Fun Facts:

In the 1980s and 90s, Poodles raced in the Iditarod and in various other sled races. Eventually, however, they were banned from sled-racing as problems with their paws and wet, matted fur made it unsafe for them to work as sled dogs in the Alaskan climate.

Poodles were originally bred and used to work in the water. Their gentle mouths (like their friends the Retrievers) rendered them perfect for use in retrieving ducks and other birds from the water. In France, they were called "caniche," or "duck dog."

World War II popularized the Poodle breed with its use of the dogs in miilitary service. The premier American breeder of Poodles was quoted as saying of their ability to be used in army service: "The dog must play a game in this thing."
