Ridgewood Standard Poodles
Meet the breeder
I'm Catherine M., the breeder behind Ridgewood Standard Poodles located in Coweta County, GA. I offer beautiful, high-quality Standard Poodle puppies from health-tested parents who have solid temperaments and pedigrees. My puppies are raised in my home. I work very hard to expose them to as many different experiences as possible, so when they are ready to go to their new homes, they adapt quickly to anything new presented to them.
