Q. & A. with Natalie
Why did you start breeding?
Our love of dogs goes back at least six generations to 1800's Ireland where Haddie's great, great, great grandmother raised & trained dogs! Training, showing
and raising dogs has been a business, a hobby, means of protection, growth, challenge & encouragement in our family. We love our poodles and are dedicated to raising beautiful, great tempered, health tested, titled, athletic companions!
What makes your program special?
We believe that having a dog can be a huge blessing and encouragement, especially if they are a good match. We love helping families identify what their goals are for their future dog and finding the puppy that best fits that description. What a sweet thing it is to see this happen! Our dogs are titled, health tested, vet checked, dewormed, vaccinated, well socialized and VERY loved!!
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
