I'm Robin or Carriann L., the breeder behind Pocatello Poodles located in Pocatello, ID. We are a small-size breeder focused on helping pass on the cutest, happiest, and healthiest pure-bred toy and mini red/parti poodles. We love poodles! While we focus on loving our dogs in a family environment, we also feel that it is important to help keep the toy pure-bred poodle line healthy. Our mommy poodle has been DNA tested with all favorable results. She is also evaluated regularly by her Veterinarian.
Q. & A. with Robin or Carriann
Why did you start breeding?
Around eight years ago, we saw our first toy red poodle. We fell in love with them and decided it was time for a family dog. It took over a year for us to find just the right fit. After we found Ember, everyone we met asked if we were going to breed her. We finally decided to do just that. Under the guidance of close breeder friends, we stepped into the world of breeding.
What makes your program special?
We breed with families in mind and our puppies are comfortable with children. We plan to breed only once or twice per year so as to provide optimal neurodevelopment and emotional stability to our dam and our puppies. We plan to primarily breed pure bred straight red and red/white parti poodles. We may also branch out into breeding Cavapoos in the future.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include toy and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
