How To Weigh a Standard Poodle
First, let’s talk about weight. The best way to weigh your poodle is by using a weight scale meant for dogs. If you do not have one of these, you can use a normal weight scale and then convert the pounds into kilograms. One kilogram is equal to 2.2 pounds. To do this conversion, simply divide the number of pounds by 2.2. For example, if your Standard Poodle weighs 50 pounds, its weight in kilograms would be 22.7 (50/2.2=22.7).
