StarShine Poodles
Meet the breeder
I'm Deborah B., the breeder behind StarShine Poodles located in Norris, SC. StarShine offers high-quality well raised puppies. Breeding Prospects are excellent representations of their breed, and I am proud to continue their inherited lines. As a Responsible breeder, StarShine is a steward of the future of these puppies. So I am doing everything to always maintain ethical breeding practices. This includes proper health testing and performing intentional breeding for specific breed and temperament traits. Also carefully nurturing puppies with proper diets and lots of social skills up to 10 to 12 weeks prior to placement in qualifying permanent homes. Of course implementing important preventive care with Recommended Immunizations and Parasite Control. StarShine puppies undergo Temperament Testing at 7 weeks of age to help determine where these babies will fit into future careers as Sport Dogs, Therapy Work, and most importantly Home Companions.
