Magnolia Cottage
Meet the breeder
I'm Jennifer S., the breeder behind Magnolia Cottage located in Stafford, VA. It is our goal to produce adorable, affectionate puppies that are healthy, well-tempered, and make wonderful companions. We raise our dogs in our home right alongside our family. We love being able to match our puppies with families that are the perfect fit for their personalities.
Q. & A. with Jennifer
Why did you start breeding?
I love dogs so much, but when my daughter was born 4 years ago she was allergic to almost all breeds. Poodles were our solution to her allergies. We believe that everyone deserves to enjoy dogs, so breeding toy/mini poodles is our contribution to the allergy community.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are raised with our family! We keep puppies until they are 13 weeks so we can house train, nighttime crate train, and acclimate them to kids of all ages & dogs of all sizes (thanks to our sweet neighbors having dogs)!What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include toy and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
