Beneath its elaborate clip the Poodle is a clever water-retriever of continental Europe, prized alike as gundog and companion. The Poodle gathers the scattered early literature of the breed – its history, description, character and management – into a single readable volume.

These collected accounts range across the Poodle's history and origins, its description and character, and the practical business of rearing, breeding and showing it, assembled from the works of the fanciers and authorities who knew the breed best.

This edition features:

• Brings the breed's foundational writers together in one collection.
• Covers the breed's history, origins, description and character.
