Best Answer

A hound is a canine that is bred specific for hunting in the company of men. Hounds can be divided in their method of hunting: sight, smell, or a combination. For example a Greyhound is a sighthound and a Bloodhound uses his nose.

A dog is a canine that is bred for other purposes like guarding, herding, protecting or hunting on it's own, usually to kill vermin. The diversity is very great and the mentioned examples are just a few. The reason for calling some canines hounds and other canines dogs is not always very clear.

A poodle has curly hair that doesn't shed, a hound has short strait fur that does shed. Hounds are typically brown, with other colors mixed in. Poodles can be white, apricot (a cream color), brown or black.

Good luck!

Poodles are not in the hound group.

If it's a standard or miniature Poodle, it would be in the "Non-Sporting" group. If it's a Toy Poodle, it would be shown in the "Toy" group.
