We are a small family run kennel in Northern Arizona.  I was introduced to the Standard Poodle breed at the veterinary office where I work by a client who raised them.  My love of the breed started when I was gifted my very first poodle, Joe, who became my one in a million “heart dog”.

Our breeding dogs travel with me regularly and the majority are CGC certified.  All are very proficient in obedience training.  We strive to give our puppies a solid foundation that includes socialization and stimulations.  From the day they are born, they are handled daily, and during their upbringing, they are exposed to everything from children to chickens to cats.  They even get to see horses and goats from a safe distance.  Starting a 4 weeks the puppies have their face, feet and fannies shaved.  We’ve found this helps them immensely with grooming later in life.  At 7 weeks the puppies are evaluated by a certified trainer using the Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test.

In short, our dogs are a part of our family, and we want to share the joy they bring us with others.  We do what we do for the love and betterment of the breed.
