Poodling since 2005, our poodles enjoy conformation showing, basic obedience, therapy work, retriever work, and barn hunt for fun.

We take this commitment very seriously and look forward to helping you find the dog of your dreams and promoting and preserving this fabulous breed.
Q. & A. with Maria
Why did you start breeding?
When I acquired my first wonderful Standard Poodle, Comet, in 2005, I became smitten with the breed, and impassioned with a desire to produce a better quality Standard Poodle locally. Over the years, I have followed the stars in this amazing breed and met some wonderful people along the way. I look forward to a future with healthy, wonderful, even-tempered, loving, trainable standard poodles.
What makes your program special?
These dogs are my treasures and I am very proud to play a role in the preservation of this magnificent breed. I remain in touch daily with some of the best breeders, handlers, exhibitors, researchers, veterinarians, and friends. Those who have my puppies as pets know that I consider them family!
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 and guardian homes.

About Cocoa - Pending Health Testing
You may find this hard to believe, but the consensus here at Cadeau is that we haven't had a puppy this precious in years! That's not to say we haven't had oodles of adorable poodle puppies, but every once in a while, a pup comes along that is just special. To me, her combination of temperament and structure makes her a winner in both the ring and the home. Cocoa had some brief ring time as a pup. We are letting her grow up and hope to put her champion title on her by her 2nd birthday!

About Violet -Pending Health Testing
Violet is a sweet, silly, happy girl from the 2019 Juno x Lucky litter. She is jet black, tall, and accepting of new animals and people. She has a lot of fun chasing the cat, but then just licks her on the ear when she catches her! Violet is a grade A snuggler. We adore her! Violet will be making her debut in the AKC show ring in 2019.

About Natalie "Noodles"
Natalie is an easygoing, social, friendly, and nurturing animal. She cleans everyone's eyes, tolerates all manner of puppy rowdiness, and is a lovely ambassador for the breed. She is very well-mannered and allows strangers large and small to hug her. She is a beautiful girl and stops traffic when I take her out.

About Misha Mouse
Misha came to me from Lakeridge Poodles' Debra Ferguson Jones in 2016. Debbie had been telling me about this lovely litter she had on the ground. I have always loved her bitch "Girly," the beautiful, white multi best in show that many know as "Summer." Girly/Summer's littermate, Lulu, had a beautiful litter sired by a "Yes" or Randenn Tristar Affirmation (her registered name) son. The pedigree was certainly the who's who of poodles! Debbie told me "She might turn blue. Is that ok?" Of course it was fine with me!
Misha, as we called her after one of my daughter's favorite actors, Misha Collins, flew in, and I went to pick her up. The pup that greeted me from the crate is the same, happy go lucky, bouncy, sweet girl that we know and love today. Misha is just so much FUN!
