Meet the breeder

I'm April L., the breeder behind Northeast TN Standard and Mini/Toy Poodles located in Johnson City, TN. I breed Poodles for temperament and health. Puppies are raised inside my home with neurological stimulation. They are vaccinated and have a wellness exam before going to their new home. I love my dogs and puppies, and it would be my pleasure to introduce your family to your next Poodle companion.

Q. & A. with April

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My parents bred Shih Tzu when I was younger, and I helped a lot. So after hands-on knowledge and lots of reading, I gave it a shot and fell in love with each pup.
  • What makes your program special?

    I seek out quality traits and temperaments. I do genetic health testing and OFA hips and elbows and patella’s. My babies and puppies all live in my home with interaction daily.
  • 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 sable, apricot, cafe au lait, cream, red, silver, parti, and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
