We are an experienced breeder, owner, and handler of Poodles and take the role of preservation, health testing, and producing healthy Poodles that are of sound body and mind very seriously. We actively support the preservation of pure bred dogs that are responsibly bred, health tested and adhere to the breed standard. We love the predictability of a healthy well-bred Poodle.

Q. & A. with Bruce

  • What makes your program special?

    I only have puppies available when I am looking to choose my next companion and show prospect. Unfortunately for me I can't keep them all, so I am fortunate to be able to share quality poodles with the public. My breeding program is focused on health, temperament and conformation. We constantly strive to produce Poodles the are healthy, make great companions and are beautiful to behold. We hope you enjoy sharing your life with one of our Poodles.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

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

    Our puppies include apricot, black, blue, brown, cream, silver, and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
