He is a tiny little guy. According to the AKC, Poodles are broken down into three size categories. Standards are the largest, miniatures are medium sized and toy poodles are the smallest, measuring 10 inches or under at the highest point of the shoulders. The term “teacup” usually refers to a tiny toy weighing under 4 lbs. Kai, being under 3 lbs, would be considered a “teaspoon”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f1f078dd041abe8d38ff8/235ff276-d2f4-4f0e-87e6-00fd8da62a6d/IMG_0106.jpg Meet the Pack - Jovala Jovala is the sweetest girl you will ever meet who, in my opinion gives Judy Garland and has the voice to match.
