TRUTH !!
The British Kennel Club states that the breed originates in Germany, as do
the American Kennel Club and the Canadian Kennel Club, stating: "Despite the
Poodle’s association with France, the breed originated as a duck hunter in
Germany..." The French name Caniche comes from the word cane (the female of
the duck) since this type of breed was used as a water retriever mainly for
duck hunting thanks to its swimming ability
The Oxford English Dictionary and the American Heritage Dictionary both
trace the etymology of Poodle to the German Pudel, which itself comes from
Pudelhund. The word Pudel in turn comes from Low German pud(d)eln meaning
"[to] splash in water," cognate with the English word puddle.
The Poodle is ranked second most intelligent dog breed just behind the
Border Collie.
