Q. & A. with Kristin
Why did you start breeding?
I always loved Poodles. I wanted a pet for my son and I was allergic to all other dogs except Poodles. I found a Poodle from an experienced breeder that needed rescuing. She had been hit by a car as a puppy and suffered from epilepsy. She was a beautiful dog and an amazing temperament. She was the reason I began breeding.What makes your program special?
I've raised my pups from the time they were babies. I complete genetic health testing way beyond the minimum to ensure we are produce the healthiest babies and feed the best quality food, treats and supplements. My goal is to better the breed. My love for my animals and the poodle breed come through with the puppies we raise. We don't take any shortcuts. I continue my education every year in dog training dog nutrients dog welping etc. and continue to learn and grow as a breeder every day so that we can provide you the best babies.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include apricot, black, blue, cream, red, silver, and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
