The Poodle is an elegant, athletic breed that comes in three distinct size varieties, each sharing the same breed standard proportions. Standard Poodles stand over fifteen inches at the shoulder and weigh between forty and seventy pounds, while Miniature Poodles range from ten to fifteen inches and weigh ten to fifteen pounds. Toy Poodles measure under ten inches and weigh between four and six pounds. Regardless of size, all Poodles display a square-proportioned, well-balanced physique that combines elegance with athletic capability. The breed carries itself with an air of dignity and pride that reflects its aristocratic heritage. The Poodle's most distinctive feature is its dense, curly coat of harsh texture, which can be presented in either curly or corded form. This single-layer coat sheds minimally, making Poodles a popular choice for people with allergies, though no dog is truly hypoallergenic. The coat comes in a wide variety of solid colors including black, blue, gray, silver, red, apricot, cream, white, brown, café-au-lait, and silver beige. For conformation showing, the coat must be a single solid color, though parti-colored Poodles exist outside show rings. The coat grows continuously and requires regular professional grooming every four to six weeks. The head is long with a moderately rounded skull and a straight, long muzzle approximately equal in length to the skull. The eyes are oval-shaped and dark, set at a slight angle to give an intelligent, alert expression. The ears are long, wide, and set at or slightly below eye level, hanging close to the head with thick, wavy hair. The neck is well-proportioned and strong, rising from muscular shoulders to allow the head to be carried high and with dignity. The body features a deep chest, well-sprung ribs, and a level topline. The tail is set high, carried erect, and traditionally docked in countries where the practice remains legal.

The Toy Fox Terrier is a well-balanced, athletic small breed that stands between 8.5 and 11.5 inches at the shoulder, with the ideal height falling between 9 and 11 inches. Weight typically ranges from four to nine pounds, creating a compact but muscular appearance that reflects both toy and terrier heritage. The breed displays a square proportion, meaning the height from withers to ground equals the length from point of shoulder to buttocks. This balanced structure gives them remarkable agility and speed despite their diminutive size, embodying the essence of a true terrier in a toy package. The overall impression is of an athletic, graceful dog with substance and bone appropriate to their size. The coat is short, satiny, and shiny with a fine texture that lies smooth against the body, creating a sleek, polished appearance. A slightly longer ruff around the neck is acceptable and adds to their refined appearance. The coat is predominantly white on the body, accounting for over fifty percent of the coloring, combined with distinctive head markings that give each dog a unique appearance. Accepted color patterns include tricolor with tan and black markings, white and tan, white and black, and white with chocolate and tan. The head is elegantly proportioned with large, erect, V-shaped ears that give them an alert, intelligent expression and are set high on the skull, pointing upward. The Toy Fox Terrier's head features a slightly rounded skull that is moderately wide, tapering gracefully toward the muzzle without appearing snippy or weak. Their dark, round eyes are bright and expressive, set well apart, conveying intelligence and curiosity about their surroundings. The nose is typically black, though liver-colored noses are acceptable in chocolate-coated dogs. The body is muscular with a well-developed chest that reaches to the elbow and strong, straight front legs with good bone. The tail is traditionally docked but can be natural, set high and carried erect when alert. The hindquarters display well-muscled thighs with moderate angulation for efficient movement. Overall, this breed presents a picture of elegance combined with athletic capability, perfectly suited for both companion duties and active pursuits.
