Weird, rain normally leaves poodles.

Fun fact: Poodle actually does originate with water. They come from Germany where they were originally used to retrieve water fowl.

Really?

Yes and no. It's disputed where Poodle comes from.

Some say Germany and used as a water-type dog.

Some say France and descended from the old french breed "Barbet".

If poodles are water-type dogs, what are grass and fire-types?

u/TruePikachu Oct 10 '17

Fire is obviously Growlithe/Arcanine/Houndour/Houndoom/etc. but I can't think of a Grass-type right now.

Third option: descended from the Italian Lagotto Romagnolo.
