The Tiny Poodle is a very small variety of Poodle, smaller than the Toy Poodle, bred primarily for the Japanese pet market. It is not officially recognized as a distinct size category by major international kennel clubs. Like all Poodles, Tiny Poodles are highly intelligent, minimally shedding, and affectionate.
