Q. & A. with Bonnie
Why did you start breeding?
We wanted to put our passion for Poodles to good use. Breeding healthy, happy puppies is our way to give back to the breed and the families who love them. We want nothing more than to see each of our dogs and puppies shine.
What makes your program special?
We are a small, in-home breeder. All of our Poodles are bred, raised, and loved indoors to produce happy, healthy pets who are great companions for individuals and families alike. Our love for these dogs is reflected in the personal touch we put into making sure the addition of your new puppy is a truly joyful experience.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
Brucellosis
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Profile
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
