Toy poodles are easy to train because they are very attentive dogs. If you wanted to do various sports with your dog (for example, agility), then this breed would do well in competitive programs.
However, it is important to remember that all poodles love to be in charge of the house. Therefore, from an early age, the dog needs to be explained who is the boss here.
