Q. & A. with April

  • What makes your program special?

    No cost has been spared and every precaution has been taken to produce the healthiest puppies possible, to ensure a long, happy and pain-free life. Temperament is extremely important. We do not breed hyper, shy or aggressive dogs. Our Poodles are confident, calm and very trainable. We believe this will give them the best chance to make excellent companions and Therapy dogs.
