About Poodle Dogs

Poodles are exceptionally intelligent and elegant dogs that come in standard, miniature, and toy sizes. Far from being just a pretty face, Poodles are athletic, eager learners who excel in obedience and agility. Their hypoallergenic coat is a bonus for allergy-sensitive families.

Adopting a Poodle means bringing home a versatile companion who's as happy learning new tricks as they are snuggling on the sofa. Their sharp minds and affectionate personalities make them one of the most rewarding breeds to share your life with.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

42°F to 65°F

Dec – Feb

The rainy season brings most of the annual 18 inches of rainfall. Trails can be muddy and creek crossings may be dangerous. Between storms, clear days with ocean views make wonderful walking weather for pets.

Spring

45°F to 68°F

Mar – May

Wildflowers carpet the hillsides and the marine layer burns off by midmorning. Beach walks are excellent and the mountain trails dry out. One of the best times of year for outdoor adventures with your pet.

Summer

55°F to 75°F

Jun – Aug

Morning marine layer keeps things cool along the coast. Afternoons warm up but rarely feel hot thanks to ocean breezes. Hendry's Beach is packed with dogs and their owners enjoying the surf.
