Meet the breeder

I'm Vicki V., the breeder behind Grace Kennel located in Saint Cloud, MN. I am a breeder of Labradoodles and Poodles. Our dogs are born and raised in my home. All parents have their health testing and most have been used for therapy work. My goal is to produce puppies with excellent conformation and temperament. We do neurological stimulation (ENS) from 3 days of age followed by puppy culture training, UTD on vaccinations and deworming, a microchip, a veterinarian health check, well started on house training, and very well socialized. Raised with love and LOTS of attention. These puppies come with a health guarantee against any genetic faults for 2 years from delivery.

Q. & A. with Vicki

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I used to breed German Shepherds and English Springer Spaniels. Then due to life circumstances, I had to quit and when it was time that I could start again, I chose to breed Moyen Poodles and Multigenerational Mini/Medium Labradoodles.
  • What makes your program special?

    First of all, I love them. I start ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation) training from 3 days of age to about 16 days of age. From there I do Puppy Culture with them. All of my parents are health tested. They come with a 2-year genetic health guarantee, are up-to-date on vaccinations and deworming, a microchip, a veterinarian health check, well started on potty training, and very well socialized.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Labradoodle puppies are miniature size. Poodle puppies include moyen and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Labradoodle puppies include caramel, apricot, chocolate, blue, silver, and tri-color. Poodle puppies are parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
