Mini Miniature
What happens if you mix a mini poodle with a standard poodle?
If a male miniature poodle, and a female standard poodle have puppies what size are they? Are they standard, mini, or somewhere in the middle? I have been trying to find this answer all day, and haven’t had any luck.
Thanks!
there is no “in between”
Standards are anything over 15 inches.
Minis are 10-15 inches…
for the records, toys are any that are under 10 inches
so you’d have to see what size the pups end up being as adults… some may be minis and some may be standards.
The problem is that you have minis that may potentially carry the gene for larger sizes.. so you could end up getting standards if you breed that mini back to another mini..
the standards from that litter coule potentially carry genetics for smaller sizes, so you could get minis if you breed back to another standard.
This is what is called “throwback” genetics.
