“Which Is Cuter: Miniature Poodles vs Cocker Spaniels?”

To quantify their cuteness, they will be scored out of 50, by using 5 categories: hair, eyes, nose, nature and skills.

Up first is the Miniature Poodle:

Poodles come in three different sizes. Theses size are: toy, miniature and standard. For the purpose of this blog Miniature Poodles shall be discussed. A miniature poodle stands between 11 to 15 inches in height and can weigh in at 15 to 17 pounds on average.  Miniature Poodles come in two builds the correct one being Square. This means their legs are long enough for their height and length to be approximately equal. They are light

shedding and very hypoallergenic for a coated breed – however they do require to be trimmed on the regular. 

Not ones to take kindly to being left alone they require a lot of companionship and mental stimulation. If they are they can become very destructive – which is not something anybody wants! They are one of the smartest and most trainable of all breeds as learn quickly and respond exceptionally well to training. Some might say they are miniature athletes, as well as being athletic they are also elegant. However, they are also big barkers which unfortunately I think may take a toll on their score.

Ratings:

-       Hair: with a trim - 8 (without a trim – 5)

-       Eyes: like two black holes - 4

-       Nose: tiny and cute as a button - 7

-       Nature: due to their barking – 6.5 

-       Skills: 8

This gives Miniature Poodles a final score of: 33.5/50

Up next their Competitor the Chocolate Cocker Spaniel:

Cocker Spaniels that are well-bred tend to have a sweet nature as they can be very affectionate and cuddly – so are very family friendly. They are usually between 1 foot 2 inches to 1 foot 3 inches and they tend to weigh 24 to 28 pounds. They have a very high sensitivity level but also have a low tolerance for being left alone.

They can require a lot of grooming but have an average amount of shedding. However, they can be very prone to becoming quite chubby. 

They are also very easy to train and are quite intelligent. However, unfortunately they also love to bark but not quite as much as the Miniature Poodle.

Ratings:

-       Hair: they have a lush coat – 7 

-       Eyes: very nice – 6.5

-       Nose: small and cute -7

-       Nature: loving - 7

-       Skills: very sporty - 7

This gives Chocolate Cocker Spaniels a final score of: 34.5/50

However, the scores don’t matter – they are both WINNERS! Bye!
