Meet the breeder

I'm Kristy V., the breeder behind Carolina Great Danes & Toy Poodles located in Kannapolis, NC. Carolina Great Danes & Toy Poodles, located in Kannapolis, NC, specializes in raising healthy, well-socialized puppies with outstanding temperaments. Our goal is to produce loving companions that bring years of happiness to their families.

Q. & A. with Kristy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Growing up, my parents raised Toy and Miniature Poodles, and I was always involved in their daily care. From feeding and grooming to playing and helping with whelping, I learned what it takes to raise happy, healthy, well-socialized puppies. Those early experiences taught me responsibility and sparked a lifelong passion for dogs.
  • What makes your program special?

    My breeding program stands out for its experience, care, and dedication. Helping my parents raise puppies as a child inspired my lifelong passion for responsible breeding. I focus on health, temperament, and early socialization to ensure every puppy is well-adjusted and ready for their new home.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Poodle 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 Poodle puppies include apricot, black, cream, and red. Great Dane puppies include mantle merle, blue, harlequin, merle, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Kristy is a reputable and trusted breeder if you are in the market for a Great Dane. The process was quick and easy, but I received all the information necessary to take care of Sandra Dee. This was the only thing my son wanted for Christmas, and he could not be more thrilled.

    I highly recommend Kristy at Carolina Great Danes and toy Poodles. From the very beginning of the process, her communication was exceptional. She consistently provided updates and shared photographs every one to two weeks, which made the entire experience reassuring and transparent. Our puppy, Cleo, was delivered with complete and well-organized paperwork, along with thoughtful items such as a blanket with her mother’s scent and an appropriate supply of puppy food. These details reflected a high level of care and professionalism. Cleo is healthy, well-adjusted, and thriving. She has transitioned remarkably well to crate training and is already doing very well with potty training. Beyond her excellent temperament, she is absolutely beautiful. We are extremely grateful for the care, dedication, and attention Kristy put into raising and placing our puppy. Cleo has truly completed our family, and we could not be happier with our experience .

    Kristy was very responsive and attentive. She kept me informed about the puppy and sent me pictures. Answered any questions timely and provided all the necessary documentation and additional items to get my little puppy through the first few days. The puppy is very pretty just how I wanted it. Thank you Kristy for the good experience!
