Why did you start breeding?
I am second generation. My mother began breeding before I was born. I bred my first litter when I was 10. Barbie was my bed dog and best friend.What makes your program special?
We have decades of dedicated knowledge of our breed. We are considered to be one of the last "families" of Miniature Poodles left in the breed.

Our puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, brown, and cream. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
