If you haven’t owned a Standard Poodle yet, you are in for a delight. Either way, you’ve come to the right site!

My love of breeding started in my grandmas barn raising St. Bernard and Boxer puppies. Every time a litter was born I’d pack my bags and head to her house to tend to the babies. All night feedings became my biggest joy. I knew then that one day I would become a breeder.

My passion for poodles began in grade school when a pair of toy poodles became part of our family and our hearts. Currently we are sharing our home with two toy poodles, Rosie and Annie who are mother and daughter, a beautiful standard poodle who is certified as a Delta Society Therapy Dog. And our new love Gracie Girl.

Paris is fully tested for genitic disease and is the mother of our grand-dogs. Miss Gracie will be be joining our breeding program in the future.

If I Didn’t Have a Dog...

• I could walk around the yard barefoot in safety.
• My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and laminated.
• All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture, and cars would be free of hair.
• When the doorbell rings, it wouldn't sound like a kennel.
• When the doorbell rings, I could get to the door without wading through fuzzy bodies who beat me there.
• I could sit on the couch and my bed the way I wanted, without taking into consideration how much space several fur bodies would need to get comfortable.
• I would have money .....and no guilt to go on a real vacation.
• I would not be on a first-name basis with 6 veterinarians, as I put their yet unborn grand kids through college.
• The most used words in my vocabulary would not be: out, sit, down, come, no, stay, and leave him/her/it ALONE.
• My house would not be cordoned off into zones with baby gates or barriers.
• My house would not look like a day care center, toys everywhere.
• My pockets would not contain things like poop bags, treats and an extra leash.
• I would no longer have to spell the words B-A-L-L, F-R-I-S-B-E- E, W-A-L-K, T-R-E-A-T, B-I-K-E, G-O, R-I-D-E
• I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside.
• I would not look strangely at people who think having ONE dog/cat ties them down too much.
• I'd look forward to spring and the rainy season instead of dreading 'mud' season.
• I would not have to answer the question 'Why do you have so many animals?' from people who will never have the joy in their lives of knowing they are loved unconditionally by someone as close to an angel as they will ever get.                                                                
• How Empty My Life Would Be!
