I am a mother, wife, and animal lover! When I got my first dog as a child I wanted to bred her. So I have always had an interest in breeding dogs. I can not explain how or why. It has just been something that I have always been interested in! I fell in love with Toy Poodles when I was a teen. A Toy Poodle was the very first dog I owned on my own. I started breeding them (toy poodles) in 2016. I am a small breeder and do NOT breed to make money, I breed to produce the puppies/dogs that I fell in love with long ago and to create a better pet quality puppy/dog for you! I breed for myself first and for most! I love the genetics that goes into the coat patterns for dogs. I am a CKC preferred breeder! I do not guarantee any puppy/dog to be ANYTHING other than PET QUALITY! My goal is to produce a happy, healthy life long mate for you! I don't breed my dogs to win dog shows, I'm not selling a product, I'm just trying to maintain this perfect breed. I raise my puppies to be the best PET you could ask for. I AM NOT A PUPPY MILL, if I WAS I would have puppies ALL the time and I do not, they would also live in a kennel 24/7 and they do NOT they live inside our home, they also would have minimum health checks and my DOGS and PUPPIES are ALWAYS brought to the vet(you can call and ask them about me because I am always there getting something for them)! If I have way too many puppies that are not selling then I am not going to continue to breed, just because another girl has come into heat. I will not continue to produce puppies if I have an over supply of them already. This is why I like to space my litters out and not have them on top of each other. I do have a wait list that if you are WILLING to wait for MY puppies/dogs, I will contact you in the order in which I have received them. I can not GUARANTEE that any puppy before birth would be a certain color or gender. I also do not GUARANTEE a puppies weight, size, temperament, or training ability. I DO NOT BREED UNDERSIZED DOGS(meaning dogs that weight under 4lbs). Some runts may run in the 3lb range but they will ONLY be SOLD TO PET ONLY HOMES! None of my poodles weight under 4lbs! I ONLY produce PET QUALITY TOY POODLES! I do not bred designer breeds or "mutts." I do not believe in this practice, even on registration paperwork is says MIXED BREED NOT PUREBRED! I stick TRUE to my PUREBREDS and WILL NOT/HAVE NOT bred anything but a PUREBRED!
All breeding pairs are carefully sectioned to ether
A. Improve health results
B. Continue a bloodline of good personality traits
C. Produce a certain color dog such as a Phantom or sable
D. To see if I can throw off a new color such as a brindle or silver (untestable gene)
Pedigree colors only go so far, just because there is blue on the linage does NOT mean some puppies will be blue. Colors are bases upon the genetic make up of both mom and dad. Pedigrees also have colors that are recorded wrong; such as an apricot as a red or a red as an apricot; not to the fault of the registry but the fault of the register. I own all parents, they are on site at all times! They stay in home with me! Parents and there offspring are beloved pets, they are NOT just used for breeding purposes! Our dogs/animals are such a HUGE part of our lives and I always consider the care of my animals as if they were my children(because they are)! I do not just stick two dogs together to make money! All of my adults and puppies have CKC or AKC or CKC and AKC registration paperwork and I also have pedigrees on the adults to show there bloodline. I also have DNA and HEALTH tested all adults and puppies from litters; the test shows inbreeding results, coat color, genetic ancestry results, and health screening for over 230+ genetic diseases. ALL my AKC dogs will also have OFA certifications and DNA #. Every Toy Poodle has a different personality. Some of them can be needy, some can be yappy, while others can be easy going and quiet. Every dog differs in there temperament and I do not know how a puppies temperament will be. I can sometimes get a drift of it once they get older around six weeks but I don't always know for sure. I now have tools from Embark to use to determine the best pairs in regards to health and inbreeding/ line breeding. That being said inbreeding/line breeding is not always a bad thing. It can be done carefully from experienced breeder, studied pedigrees, and resources(like Embark). I do sometimes line breed to keep certain traits in the blood line. Line breeding is the practice of mating a dog to a member of an earlier generation of the dog's bloodline such as a grandsire to a granddaughter, or an uncle to a niece. I do my best to avoid inbreeding. Inbreeding is the mating of two closely related dogs of the same breed such as a father to a daughter, brother to sister, mother to son, etc. If I can find the traits I'm looking for in an outcross then that is always my first route. Outcross is the mating of two unrelated dogs of the same breed. I believe in naturally producing, if they can't produce on there own, they aren't good breeding dogs and I won't use them. I only bred PUREBRED dogs, with a PUREBRED status! I do not breed anything but a PUREBRED! It is important to me to protect the breed (TOY POODLES) from becoming a MIXED BREED or what are called designer breeds. Owning a puppy/dog is a HUGE responsibility and is not for the FATE OF HEART!! Every dog/puppy deserves the best possible care from new owners. If a new owner finds themselves unable to do this any longer, please contact me, I will help you find the puppy/dog a new owner or explorer options for you to get them the care they deserves.
It is important to me that my puppies go to good loving homes! I send weekly updates to those who put deposits down on a puppy as well as answer ANY and ALL question new owner may have anytime! I also love to get updates and keep in touch with new owners! I provide life long assistance to new owners and take back ANY and ALL puppies that I’ve sold to you(NO REFUNDS for your purchase) if you no longer want or can provide for it. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BUY AND SELL A PUPPY FROM ME; IF YOU NO LONGER WANT YOU MUST RETURN THE PUPPY TO ME(NO REFUNDS)!! My puppies also come with a 1 year health guarantee, where if found to have a life threatening disease within a year of your purchase date you have the option to return the puppy and receive a replacement puppy. I offer all different kinds of size toy poodles some litters are more of a miniature than a toy(they weigh miniature weight but are the height of a toy). My litters vary in weights from 3-15lbs, depending on the mom and dad of the litter. Keep in mind I have/get to make the BEST decision for each and every puppy! That being said if you are buying a puppy from me as BREEDER then I will NOT let you take a puppy who is a carrier for certain health issues or is UNDERSIZED! If you are not interested in breeding and only looking for a pet then paperwork is limited and you will have to sign and spay/neuter agreement. I have and get to make the best decisions for the breed as well as the offspring(your puppies puppies) life long health! If you do not agree with me and want to do "whatever you want with your puppy" then you can find a different breeder. As they are not "YOURS" until you pick them up and not everyone feels the same as you. These are MY puppies and I have no issue/problem keeping MY puppies! You should also keep in mind that when purchasing an animal from your local shelter they are already fixed before going home. My puppies are raised in home with children and many other play mates(including cats and big dogs,etc.)! They come well-socialized with, accustom to many different noises in everyday life, and spoiled! I also start house, kennel, and puppy pad train the puppies. ALL puppies come up-to-date on shots, de-wormed every 2 weeks till they leave me, and will receive a wellness check, micro-chipped, and heart-worm and flea prevention before going home; all been done by a licensed vet!! CKC per-printed puppy registration paperwork/AKC dog registration application is provided as well. If buying as a pet your paperwork will be limited and you must sign a spay/neuter(fix) agreement. DNA and HEALTH results for YOUR PUPPY will be provided as well! Before getting a puppy please do research on the breed first! I have all the information available on the link below!
At my kennel me, my husband, and our kids do everything for the dogs, shaving, cleaning, baths, food, water, etc(mostly ME). I do not do shots, tails, or declaw myself, I get a LICENSED vet to preform these things. My adults, puppies, and any other animal I own is fecal checked regularly, annuals always up-to -date(shots), as well as never miss a dose of there heartworm and flea meds, even the ones that are not used for breeding purposes. I do not have kennels outside for my dogs. They stay in my home. They do have wire/metal kennels in my home that they sleep in at night and sometimes stay in during the day(when I am away from home). I am not one to sleep with animals as I like my own person space and my husband and son are allergic to dogs. So I try to keep them out of there main spaces. My animals are not allowed to roam the house freely when no one is here or when they are all wet because I do not want my house/items to be a messed up. This is just a personal preference for me and in no way reflects how much I (or anyone else for that matter) loves there animals(to each there own). When I leave they are ether locked up in there kennels inside or allowed to roam around freely outside in the back yard until I get back. I do stay home most of the time but when my husband and son are home the dogs have to spend more time outside or in there kennels, do to there allergies. They don't live inside a kennel, they're raised with us so puppies will learn how to behave when they get to your house! Adult dogs have blankets in there cages for comfort and rarely ever have accidents in there cages, as there is no need to because they are let in and out of the house/cage area multiple times a day. Of course sometimes someone has an accident because they are having "bathroom issues". When this happens there blankets are immediate removed, the area whipped and cleaned, and then new blankets are put in. They are fed outside besides for pregnant or nursing mothers and puppies. Water bowls are filled and cleaned every day this also takes place outside some of my dogs are really messy with the water(they will play in it). They are in a completed fenced yard. They have a fan for when its hot out; heater in the winter when it's cold and a large shed as a huge dog house. Boys and girls go out together when girls are not in heat. When a girl is in heat they are let out separately. When I plan on breeding a girl they are put in a special area to mate and be monitored after mating has been completed they are separated again for the next day/two days then put back together for additional mates until the female will no longer accept him. I own more than Toy Poodle so in my pictures you may see: Chickens, Ducks, Cats, Fish, Birds, Mice, Lizards, and big dogs. I also have children who range in age between 2-12. So puppies/dogs are socialized everyday by myself , my kids, and other animals. Any dog/cat not used for breeding is fixed in my house. When females are close to giving birth I will sleep in the whelping area with them to be there in case any issues may arise. Most of the time deliveries go on without a hitch, occasionally a mother will need a bit of assists. Rarely do my females need to have a c section. I have been breeding for 6+ years now and only had 1 c section happen and that was because the female was just to small to pass her babies threw the birth canal. She was then spayed and removed from my program.
