I'm John M., the breeder behind Mayday Quality Poodles located in Cleveland, TX. We offer top quality standard poodles puppies, that are socialized, vet checked, wormed, vaccinated. Our puppies are raised in my home with plenty of interaction from myself and grandsons. They are handled and loved all during the day. We start teaching the puppies to go outside to potty at a very young age.
Q. & A. with John
Why did you start breeding?
Since Willa May is so smart and laid back I wanted to have puppies from her. I looked into finding a stand and couldn’t find the right one so I went on a search for a male to purchase. I found Jacques( Jock) and he too is laid back and super smart. The first litter of puppies were all super smart and found great homes in the county, city, military and as emotional support .
What makes your program special?
I hand picked both, my female and male and raised them with manners and in a very loving environment in return I have had a super litter and can’t wait to see where this litter goes.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include apricot and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
