Dr Bruce Rodger DVM and Pamela Rodger have been breeding standard poodles for over 35 years. From years of being a Veterinarian and also as a family man, Dr. Bruce became more enchanted by the standard poodle breed. Their intelligence and their method of folding into a family or single owner, made him realize that once you have a poodle, you don’t go back.
The founding line (from Belcourt, Bragg Creek, AB.) that Rodgers chose, was best suited because of its grounded personality, love of outdoors and ability to enjoy challenge skills and games.
We are a very small breeding program and our mom + grandmother poodles are our personal dogs. We are very selective about where we place our poodle kids and require that we really get to know the FOREVER Families and they get to know us and understand our intentions. We commit ourselves to our poodle owners, for the rest of the poodle’s life.
We choose our breeding couple carefully. They are all C.K.C Registered Standard Poodles and have gone through a series of lab and x-ray test until they are 2 years old, before they are confirmed as perfect for a breeding program. The males are chosen after carefully considering temperament, how they were raised and what health issues are in their line. We keep our retired moms as they are family. We have learnt that the best teachers for the pups are their grandmother and older sister. Polly (Chocolate mother to Lilly) and Lilly ( cream mother of chocolate Lucy) are retired. At this point March 2020, Lucy has passed all her genetic screening, skin biopsies, blood work and hip x-rays. Lucy is moving into her future mother roll. We already know she’ll be a good mom as she has had hours of tending and playing with her siblings from her mom Lilly.
