Semper Poodelis

Kiley C.

Breeder of Poodles

Meet the breeder

I'm Kiley C., the breeder behind Semper Poodelis located in Vail, AZ. I am a small hobby breeder breeding to better the breed. Health and temperaments are vital, along with proper conformation. Sometimes the most ordinary things can be made extraordinary simply by doing them with a Poodle.

Q. & A. with Kiley

  • Why did you start breeding?

    In 2010 I brought home my 1st Standard Poodle. She was the show puppy pick. I had never shown before but had a great mentor so I decided why not. By 7 months old she took 1st place in AKC. After that, I purchased another pup from my mentor and started to title him. I quickly fell in love with showing, Poodles and decided in 2012 to try breeding.

  • What makes your program special?

    I raise my pups with the puppy culture system. Hands-on daily and training starting at 3 weeks. I groom them from 2.5 weeks on to get them used to the life of grooming ahead. I keep all pups til 10 weeks to ensure they get the proper socialization they need to be more well-rounded pups. I only breed parents who have health testing and solid temperaments.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
