Toy Poxer Activity Requirements
The Toy Poodle is a lively, intelligent, and friendly little dog. They are highly trainable and excel at many canine sports. They are wonderful companions, but they can also be independent and mischievous. Most Toy Poodles will do well with at least an hour of exercise each day. This could be broken down into several short walks or one long outing. They also love to play and will enjoy tug-of-war, fetch, and chasing balls. The Toy Poodle is well suited to urban or suburban living. While they do require regular exercise, they are not as high energy as other breeds. A Toy Poodle will be happy living in an apartment, provided they receive enough stimulation throughout the day.
