Central Coast Poodle Paws
Meet the breeder
I'm Megan M., the breeder behind Central Coast Poodle Paws located in Arroyo Grande, CA. I have been a dog trainer for 8 years and last year I became a Certified Service Dog Trainer from Animal Behavioral College. We are now working to produced healthy Moyen Poodles for service dog prospects along with Therapy & Facility Dogs for those with a dog allergies.
Q. & A. with Megan
Why did you start breeding?
When my daughter was a diagnosed with a chronic illness we began to look for a service dog prospect. We had to make sure the dog had "hair" instead of "fur" because of her allergy to dogs. I realized that the options for people with dog allergies & would benefit from a service dog are slim. So that became our mission with breeding Moyen Poodles.What makes your program special?
I would say we are a special program because I have knowledge in different training aspects & willing to help those who need a service dog raise the right pup. Our program will also offer training help in Basic Obedience, House Manners, & AKC CGC courses. Our dogs are raised in our home where they will receive daily Neonatal Stimulation to help them to be the best pups they can be.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are moyen size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are phantom. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
