Q. & A. with Wendy

Why did you start breeding?
I got my first poodle in 2000 and fell in love with the breed. This passion led me to educate myself extensively about poodles and how to improve the breed. By 2003, I began breeding, focusing on raising healthy, genetically tested AKC puppies, and emphasizing socialization and early stimulation for well-rounded pets.
What makes your program special?
My poodles stand out for their exceptional health and temperament. They live in my home with me, ensuring they are well-socialized and loved. I emphasize genetic testing for robust health and use early stimulation for well-rounded pets. My commitment to continuous learning and not overbreeding ensures that my AKC poodles are not only beautiful but also thrive in family environments.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are moyen size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
