Maria has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
Maria partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 8 weeks old.
“Temperament testing done ~7 weeks. I do a structural/conformation assessment at 8 weeks and choose my own puppy or any show pick puppies at that time. The remaining puppies are matched by pairing buyer experience level with puppy activity and temperament. Sex and color preferences are largely taken into consideration. My goal is to ensure that my puppies are a perfect match for their new families. Temperaments can vary within the litter, and certain puppies may not be the best matches to the "perfect pup" for the family. Although I will take back any animal I produce for life, my goal is for them to be integrated seamlessly into their new families and stay there for life!”

“We will take a $500 deposit with approved puppy application if there is a confirmed pregnancy. The deposit is refundable if we do not have a puppy for you.”
Maria may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Maria offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Maria directly.
When you pay and communicate on Good Dog, you’re covered by Payment Protection.
You can drive or fly to pick up your puppy from Maria.

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!
