The tee-cap teddy poodle is the smallest variety of poodle and gets its name from its tiny size when it is a puppy. Teddy poodle puppies fit comfortably in a tea cup. This variety of poodle was obtained by breeders in the middle of the twentieth century.

The Teacup Poodle is essentially a toy version of that poodle with a slightly shorter muzzle, a rounded head with pronounced cheekbones and cheeks, and round eyes. The coat is no different from the standard coat of an ordinary poodle - thick and curly, requiring regular grooming. Color can be any.
