Breeder of Poodles

Meet the breeder

I'm Pat E., the breeder behind Serendipite Poodles located in San Diego County, CA. I hand-raise all of my dogs with love in my home. I have high expectations for my puppies and make sure to place each one with an enriching and loving family complementary to their personality and ability! I want to make the transition from my loving home to yours as seamless as possible.

Q. & A. with Pat

Why did you start breeding?
I enjoyed watching my first show dog in the ring and now I am committed to improving and preserving this historic breed. Poodles have proven to be wonderful companions in my life. It is my goal to produce healthy, well-bred puppies, therefore I follow the very rigorous protocols of a responsible breeder. It is an honor to do my part to preserve and improve the breed. Poodles are incredible dogs as companions, athletes, and show stars. You should see them in agility events!
What makes your program special?
Extensive health testing is done on each breeding dog and I provide each one with love, high-quality food, and special care. I cherish each of my dogs and puppies, and I do everything I can to make sure that they get the best lives possible. That includes everything from choosing healthy parents with good temperaments, to proper socialization and daily care, to placing them in loving homes with wonderful families.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
