Such was the fame of these animals that in 1922 the Poodle Club was founded in Paris .A few years later, in 1936, the FCI established the official standard of the breed, but for the toy poodle, this recognition would not come until many years later, since it was necessary to wait until 1984 to be recognized.Some of the names of the poodle in other countries are that of poodle in USA or pudel in Germany .
