I'm Emily H., the breeder behind Willow’s Branches Poodles located in Texas. I am a new Poodle breeder. I am doing everything I can to prepare myself for breeding healthy, to standard, well-rounded and socialized puppies. I am currently raising two females to breed. I am learning and ready to get my hands on all the knowledge. There is always something new to learn!
Q. & A. with Emily
Why did you start breeding?
As mentioned previously, I love the Poodle breed and I am fascinated with the genetics of breeding. Our Poodles serve as therapeutic family members for our children and I want to share that gift with others.
What makes your program special?
The goal of my breeding program is to raise puppies that are healthy and well rounded. Puppies are raised in the home with careful supervision and lots of love. I use Embark to complete genetic testing on parents. When my females are 24 months, they will complete the OFA screening. We are not a kennel. We are a family raising puppies for families.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
