Meet the breeder

Q. & A. with Kirsta
Why did you start breeding?
As a young girl, it was my dream to one day own a Poodle. I fell in love with the breed, and from that day on, my sweet mutt Fluffy was an honorary show Poodle. I purchased my first Standard Poodle in 1998. The experience of owning a Standard Poodle was everything I expected and much, much more. From that moment on, I was happily, helplessly addicted.What makes your program special?
With an Azel puppy, you will get a quality Standard Poodle. One whose parents' have undergone genetic health testing. The parents are proven, AKC Championship-quality dogs who meet the breed standards for conformation. They also have endearing personalities.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
