Meet the breeder
I'm Michele B., the breeder behind ROYAL VISTA located in North Prince George, VA. I have bred for perfection, not profit for over 30 years and titled dogs in conformation & performance of many breeds. My dogs are bred for conformation, health, temperament, intelligence, & athletic ability so that they are all around great pets & family members in addition to show dogs! Please dont message me on good dog & asking if my price is firm on my pups & then state you can find a pup for cheaper from "other" kennel. My prices are non negotiable. I dont care if the other kennel is cheaper. There is a *reason* why that particular kennel is cheaper. Do your research. Asking a breeder to lower their pricing on a pup is rude, especially given the level of health testing and my guarantees I offer that most do not.
Q. & A. with Michele
Why did you start breeding?
My father raised German Shepherds and my maternal grandfather raised Yorkies. I've trained and shown dogs since I was 18 years old. I have even shown my own dogs twice at Westminster, in 2002 (Am Staff & Min Pin) and again in 2006 (Amstaff). So proud that my dogs have qualified for such a prestigious event. In 2025. My Mini Poodle is ranked #3 in the Breed in UKC with very limited showing. This year alone, I finished 6 poodles in UKC and have major pointed my Mini in AKC. The Minis go out to AKC to finish there in 2026!What makes your program special?
I breed for my future show generations and perform extensive health testing to ensure I'm breeding healthy dogs of sound mind and body. I have shown 2x at Westminster and shown and bred many champions of various breeds.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 sable, apricot, black, blue, brown, cafe au lait, cream, red, gray, silver, silver-beige, white, parti, and phantom. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Program update on 09 Jan. •…All the puppies from the Maisy x Kayce litter have gone to their homes and settled in. They are doing great and I look forward to hearing about them throughout their lives! I have a litter due Mid January out of a full younger Sister to my Kimber, Koŕe and Kayce. I expect the puppies to be of similar quality and am excited for them. I have a deposit on a male from that litter already. Willing to accept a female deposit and then we wait and see what they have. Deposits are for *pet quality puppies* and final determination isn't always made until they are 4-8 weeks of age, unless it's clear that the puppy isn't show quality. My co-breeder has a litter out of Kayce and Mocha that they are accepting applications on them as well so look out for that litter

Poodle
About Korè
Kore is a full younger Sister to our Kimber. Sadly, we got her because it seemed she had ringworm. She had crusty eyes and sores and abcesses all over her body. The vet I took her to couldn't fogure it out. They wanted her on strong antifungals and I decided to go the holistic route and she cleared up quickly, within days! We later found out that she got puppy strangles due to her breeder's (NOT ME, I didn't breed her) Vet giving 5 wk old puppies multiple vaccines at the same time. Several other puppies came down with it as well. Korè suffered the worst of all the affected pups. She has scarring on her face and body due to the strangles. She was quite sickly and therefore didn't get the same socializing that I normally do. I have tried to show her a few times, but she kinda hates it, but I'm going to try again in the Spring.

Michele is clearly a very responsible breeder and takes special care of both her own dogs and puppies. She vets prospective owners to assure a good match with a puppy. She provides great guidance on how to groom and care for your new furry family member. Michele has been great to work with and Snowball and I are already buddies for life!♥️

Michele was a wealth of information about Toy Poodles and how to care for them. She made sure I knew how to properly brush him and what kind to use. She allowed me to come spend some time with him before either one of us made a decision. Fortunately Apollo chose me and I was back to get him the next day. Michele takes such good care of all her babies. I’m just glad she shared one with me🖤 Per our contract Apollo saw the vet and was neutered and got his rabies vaccine. He is such a sweet boy and we are loving giving him all of our lovin. So glad I found Michele and would adopt from her in the future with no hesitation.

We purchased Patches(aka Piper) from Michele. Piper is absolutely adorable. She is precious and loving. Michele’s paperwork and vaccinations were complete. We’re very fortunate to have found Michele and Piper. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you Michele
