Can’t sleep and somehow thinking about dogs? Fair enough, let’s talk about poodles, the curly coated overachievers of the dog world. In this episode, you’ll learn where poodles actually come from (hint not France), what they were originally bred to do, and why they’re consistently ranked among the most intelligent dog breeds. We’ll also cover their different sizes, personality quirks, and why their high maintenance reputation is only half deserved. It’s a calm, steady walkthrough, no whispering, no sudden noise, just enough interesting detail to keep your mind occupied without keeping you awake. Happy sleeping!
