🐩 Comments on the Poodle Standard: disqualifying faults and the evolution of FCI

 This video was recorded many years ago, according to earlier interpretations and previous versions of the FCI Poodle Standard. Even so, it remains a very interesting educational material for understanding how certain faults were evaluated, which characteristics were considered serious, and how the interpretation of the standard has evolved over time.

👉 The video includes real examples and practical explanations about structure, proportions and disqualifying faults in the Poodle.

⚠️ Important:
The FCI 2024 Standard introduced changes and new interpretations in several aspects of the breed. Therefore, this video should be viewed as educational and historical material about the evolution of the standard, not as a literal interpretation of the current version.

🐩 Breeding and breed standards evolve over the years, and understanding previous versions also helps to better understand the breed.
