Artista Poodles
Meet the breeder
I'm Kim S., the breeder behind Artista Poodles located in Oak Grove, LA. Ethical breeder of smaller Standard Poodles with emphasis on health, temperament and sound structure.
Q. & A. with Kim
Why did you start breeding?
We love our little Lucy, but we have always worried about her safety due to her small size. A more sturdy poodle fits our lifestyle better, but large standard poodles aren't ideal for us due to travel.What makes your program special?
When breeding our poodles, our primary goal is to produce healthy, physically and temperamentally sound, beautiful poodles. Most of our puppies will mature to be smaller standard poodles, as we prefer living with a poodle that isn't very big or small.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

Price
“We offer a $100 rebate upon completion of an intermediate level obedience course to encourage basic training. Training helps build a bond with your poodle as well as helping your poodle to be a companion that is pleasant to live with. All puppies are sold with AKC limited registration with spay/neuter contract. Occasionally, I will consider placing a puppy with a trusted breeder/show home. Any puppies going to show/breeding homes will go with a co-own contract with stipulations. No deposits are accepted until pregnancy is confirmed.”

Kim may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy.
