I'm Cynthia S., the breeder behind Ivy League Poodles located in Oakdale, CT. My goal is breeding healthy, well-rounded puppies using puppy culture, ENS and Avidog activity cubes. Raised in home to give them all the attention and care to give them the best start in life. I strive to have pups that leave home confident and healthy. Many have achieved CH in performance events.
