I'm Sheryl B., the breeder behind Palmares Poodles in Red and Apricot located in Decatur, AR. I am a preservationist breeder of Red and Apricot Standard Poodles. I believe in breeding the best to the best. It is my goal to produce show quality exceptional Standard Poodles, that enjoy good health and make great companions. My poodles tend to be smaller sized 45 lb and under.
Q. & A. with Sheryl
Why did you start breeding?
I was unable to find a good quality Red Standard Poodle, so I brought my extensive knowledge of pedigrees and conformation forward and began creating the perfect Red Standard Poodle.
What makes your program special?
It is my own. I have imported from all over the world so my dogs are quite unique. The literally sell themselves. Dark red, health tested, & conformation-ally correct, stop traffic.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include moyen and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
