Meet the breeder

I'm Taylor G., the breeder behind Gerth Farms located in Marshfield, MO. I am a small-scale breeder, allowing me to give each of my puppies and adults the proper care and attention they each deserve. I am dedicated to providing happy, healthy, and well-socialized puppies for others to welcome into their family. I love my puppies and know you will love them, too!

Q. & A. with Taylor

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always been passionate about the well-being of animals. Being a veterinary assistant started my love for these breeds and I wanted to put my passion to good use! It's been a joyful commitment, and it is a pleasure to live with, work with, and share with others these wonderful dogs.
  • What makes your program special?

    My dogs are an integral part of my family and daily life. This creates the ideal environment for puppies. From birth, they grow in a secure, loving environment where they know that they matter to their family -- that they have a purpose.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include moyen and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

Gerth Farms reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Moyen Poodles.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (rDVM, not registered with OFA)

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • Patellar Luxation

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • Full Embark Panel

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had the BEST experience! Taylor was incredibly responsive and kept us updated with pictures as our girl grew, which made the wait so much fun. She made the entire process so easy and stress-free. Our new black Standard Poodle, “Eleanor,” is the perfect addition to our pack. You can tell she came from a loving, well-cared-for home. Highly recommend!

    Taylor and her husband were both responsive and professional. I drove most of the way but they met me in a nearby city in a public place. I have no complaints about the experience and love my new dog, who's settling in as a part of the family.
