No, the miniature poodle is a pedigree breed that was bred from the standard. From each litter of standards, people took the smallest members and bred those together, and repeated this every generation. Because the larger members of the generation were not bred, it meant the genes for larger poodles were slowly bred out of the gene pool, making the average offspring's size smaller each generation.
You get a miniature poodle because a big poodle + a small poodle =a miniature poodle .
Hard to say because it IS a mixed-breed dog. Mixed breeds are a genetic crap shoot, there's just no reliable way to predict which breed's traits will show. But remember, a MINIATURE poodle is not as small as a toy poodle and as size goes a full-bred Westie is generally somewhere in the middle between a toy poodle and a miniature poodle. Also in both those purebreds the males are larger than the females.
They are all the same breed of dog, just different sizes. A Teacup poodle is the smallest but is not recognized by the AkC. The next size is a toy poodle, then miniature poodle, then standard poodle. Another answer There are only three different sizes in the poodle breed and is the only dog breed with three different sizes (Toy, miniature, standard) the teacup is still in the Toy size.

No. Only a poodle or a mixed breed poodle species contains the poodle gene.
A Cockapoo is a cross between two dog breeds - the English Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle or an American Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle. They can not be considered a pure blood since it is two different breeds, nor is it a mixed breed because there are only two. A Cockapoo would be considered a Hybrid.
A retrodoodle is a breed of dog- a mix of a Golden Retriever and a Miniature poodle.
its a mixed breed, cockerspaniel and poodle
Since the parents are a minature poodle and lhasa apso, they technically make a minature lhasapoo. But, you want to be warned because some people sell these off as a designer dog. In truth, they are a mixed breed type of dog(AKA "mutts").
it depends on the size of the poodle and shih-tzu i would think they would have to be around the same size
There's Miniature Poodles and Toy Poodles, Toy Poodles can be just as big, or bigger then a Rottweiler depending on parents and how well they're looked after, the smallest a Miniature Poodle would get is about the size of a Jack Russel Terrier.
