Q. & A. with Tasha
Why did you start breeding?
My breeding program came about from the love of my own Poodles and their capacity to help support Soldiers. I have been breeding and training Standard Poodles for many years with great success.

My #1 goal is to provide trained canine partners for those in need, at an affordable rate.What makes your program special?
My breeding program focuses on the temperament and conformation of the litters I produce. All of my dogs are raised, trained, and live in actual homes with families, they are pets first and foremost.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
