Meet the breeder

I'm Kristina S., the breeder behind Bruno & Co. Puppies located in Charlotte, NC. Bruno & Co. Poodles are dedicated to raising healthy, well-socialized puppies with a strong focus on temperament, care, and early development. They’re socialized with adults and kids so they get lots of love and attention. Our furries are up to date with necessary shots, deworming and vet check.

Q. & A. with Kristina

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I grew up around poodles and know a lot about their care and behavior. From the very beginning, I have been hands-on, helping with everything from feeding to playtime, and providing the love and attention our puppies need to thrive.

  • What makes your program special?

    It all began in 2021 with one tiny apricot furball. My husband and I gifted a Toy Poodle puppy to our firstborn, and we named him Bruno—that’s where our journey began. What started as a gift quickly became our passion. We pour our hearts into raising each puppy with love, care, and socialization. When you welcome a puppy from us, you’re not just getting a pet—you’re becoming part of our family.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include toy and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include apricot and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

    I had a great experience with Kristina as a breeder. Communication throughout the process was clear, and it was obvious that she truly cares about her puppies and their well being. She has been incredibly supportive and responsive, especially after I brought my puppy home. She has always been willing to answer any questions I’ve had and has continued to check in, which I really appreciate. It means a lot to have a breeder who remains available and involved even after pickup. Overall, I am very happy with my experience and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and responsible breeder.

    Kristina helped me feel comfortable and confident in preparing for my Bella's delivery. I had a list of questions and she had answers! I was welcomed into the home, met mama Kona, and now have had my baby one full week! The pup is SO very smart and full of character. I am very thankful for Kristina's kindness and professionalism! ♥
