What does it mean if a mixed-breed dog is given 'Poodle feet'?

• A. Feet left natural
• B. Feet completely clipped clean
• C. Feet trimmed on top
• D. Feet clipped only around the pads

Answer: (B)

Poodle feet describe shaving the hair on the feet down to a clean, smooth finish so the paws look compact and neat. This style removes hair between the toes and around the paw to create a tidy, clipper-clean appearance similar to a Poodle’s feet. It’s chosen for mixed breeds to reduce matting, improve hygiene, and give a crisp silhouette at the feet. Leaving the feet natural wouldn’t be the same look. Trimming only the top or clipping just around the pads wouldn’t achieve the full clean-foot effect that “poodle feet” implies.
