Stage 2: Energetic Adolescence

As poodles enter adolescence, their energy levels soar. They become more independent and may test boundaries. Consistent training, exercise, and mental stimulation are crucial during this stage to channel their energy in positive ways.

Stage 3: Young Adults

In the young adult stage, poodles are more settled and confident. They have reached their full size and exhibit their adult coat. This is an ideal time to focus on advanced training, engaging them in mentally stimulating activities, and participating in dog sports or competitions.

Stage 4: Mature Adulthood

In mature adulthood, poodles are fully developed physically and emotionally. They are more calm, self-assured, and less prone to impulsive behavior. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle through regular exercise, a balanced diet, and regular veterinary check-ups is essential during this stage.
