Q. & A. with Kosh

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We wanted to put our passion for Poodles to good use. Breeding healthy, happy puppies is our way to give back to the breed and the families who love them. We want nothing more than to see each of our dogs and puppies shine. We truly love our puppies and know you will, too! We pride ourselves on helping all of our clients find the right fit for their needs and lifestyle.

  • What makes your program special?

    Our love for Poodles is reflected in the personal touch we put into making sure the addition of your new puppy is a joyful experience. We focus on breeding dogs that have enough drive to keep up with our lifestyle, but also have amazing temperaments and can quickly adapt to a calm family setting. Our dogs compliment each other fabulously in regards to their personalities and overall structure.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include miniature, moyen, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black, blue, brown, cafe au lait, red, silver, silver-beige, parti, phantom, and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
