Update - Finn has been placed with his new forever home.

This is Finn! He is almost 16 weeks old, a Cream, male Standard Poodle, weighs 14 kgs. He has had 3 sets of vaccines and will require rabies at 20 weeks. Finn is cryptorchid and will need to be neutered at 1 year. This does not affect his health in any way.

Finn is an incredibly sweet boy, he loves attention, but is not at all needy. He is a medium energy, wonderful off switch. His recall is good and he is trained to do his business with the cue "go potty". He is ex-pen trained, and clean overnight. He spends an hour in the AM, 1.5 - 2 hours in the PM in his ex-pen and is very calm and happy when he's there. He is well on his way to being housetrained, is very good on leash, excellent for grooming/bathing. He loves children, and enjoys the company of other dogs. He is respectful of our 13 lb Mini.

Finn is very affectionate and just melts into our arms when hugged and pet, his favorite place is on the couch tucked behind my knees or with his head on my chest/lap. He is not super excitable, other than at meal time, this boy loves to eat! He is currently fed RAW and supplemented with Purina Pro Plan 30/20.

He is a pleasure to groom, has a good coat, beautiful pigment and very nice structure.

Finn is a gentle dog and would do best with positive training methods. He has been in the car many times, has gone to a Poodle picnic, soccer games and took to the leash liked a pro. He has a soft mouth and very good bite inhibition. He is not reactive to other dog's, is not afraid of traffic, storms or loud noises. He can be a little fussy about doorways.

He is an absolute gem of a puppy and will make an absolutely wonderful pet for a home with children or with a senior looking for a calm dog.

Damp, rainy, Monday morning Poodles

Our old lady over the years. 12 years has gone by in a flash. She's still healthy, though a bit slower, not fond of long grooming sessions and still eats like a horse. She has always been Paul Lunney 's favorite girl. Last picture is from today!

Update - "Rosie" has found her wonderful new home!!

This pretty girl is available. She is 14 weeks old, very sweet and a bit of a clown. She is clean overnight, eats well, is excellent for grooming. She will be a wonderful family pet, loves children and other dogs. She has had 2 sets of vaccines and is ready to be socialized.

This will be our last litter of standard poodles.

Things have changed since Covid and the demand for puppies has fallen dramatically. We did have 5 reservations prior to this breeding, but unfortunately, 2 fell through. I didn't advertise a great deal as I usually receive a couple inquiries a week. That has not happened with this litter.

We still have puppies available, they are 13 weeks old. There are advantages to purchasing a puppy at this age:
- pups have been regularly groomed and are accustomed to the grooming table
- they have finished the alligator stage and have learned bite inhibition. Much less likely to eat your favorite pair of shoes!
- they have been exposed to a large variety of people and dogs, are comfortable on a variety of surfaces, have travelled several times by car, have been exposed to roads, construction, storms and fireworks
- Puppies are on a good schedule, sleeping through the night, are accustomed to quiet, independent play time
- they all eat well and are not fussy, they are fed raw and purina pro plan
- they have had 2 vet visits, are vaccinated and are safe to take out in public

These puppies are very well adjusted and confident, have outstanding temperaments, and would make a wonderful family pet.

Please feel free to share.

Puppies out playing with Mom and Aunt Frankie! Please DM for more information regarding available puppies.

Puppies out for leash training and socialization at the soccer field. Both did exceptionally well! No getting sick in the car, no fussing on leash, and lots of new people, sounds and sights.

Puppies are 11 weeks old! 2nd vaccinations are done. They are clean overnight, have been introduced to crates, learning "off" and bite inhibition. They are excellent for grooming, including face and feet shaves, bathes and high velocity dryer. They are lovely puppies, with beautiful thick coats and wonderful temperaments. We still have 3 puppies available. Please DM for more information.

I'm sorry if you are having trouble accessing my website. Apparently the fortune I pay Hostgator for services still requires me to call them every couple of months to renew my security certificate. My website is secure and it is safe to navigate to it. If you had previously tried to access the page, you may need to clear your cache/cookies/browsing history to access the page normally. But seriously who wants to do all that?!

Looking for recommendations for website hosting, lol! Not pleased with Hostgator at all!

A quick photo update, puppy heads at 8 weeks. I'm down and out with the flu so please be patient if I don't get back to you right away.

As usual I'm behind on photos! Puppies are now 7 weeks old. They are weaned from Pearl and eating 3 meals a day. Pups are fed raw, Purina Pro Plan, pumpkin, probiotics and of course treats. They are on a regular schedule now and going potty outside. They have been introduced to crates, a wide variety of surfaces, all sorts of sounds including fireworks and gunshots, sirens and excited children. We have had lots of visitors, including seniors and children of a variety of ages. These puppies are all quite similar in temperament - they have great recovery from stressors, have good problem solving skills, do very well being exposed to new things daily, a very easy litter to raise. They have had their first vaccines and none had reactions, they have been dewormed. They will begin going to their homes between 9 and 10 weeks.

We do have a cream female available - Yellow collar and a black male - Red collar.

Two of these puppies are still available.

Puppies got their 2nd face, feet and tail shaves done today, some got a little sc******ng. Ears cleaned and nails dremelled. They were introduced to the big yard and a new play area set up out under a big shade tree. It's been so hot, they love the wading pool, and are much happier playing once they've had a quick dip to cool off. They are pooping outside now, woohoo, and using the potty area inside about 90% of the time for p*e! Pearl has begun weaning and is only nursing a few times a day, pups are eating 3 meals a day, with a bedtime snack. They enjoyed visitors this weekend and all did very well. They spent some time on the deck too and had brief playdates with the older dogs. They are going up and down the steps easily. Very easy litter to raise.

Update on the puppies, I promise I will post pictures tomorrow LOL. It's been a big couple of weeks with lots of changes. Puppies have had a full groom, face feet and tail as well as a bath and a blow dryer. Nails done for the fourth time. They have also started eating solids, going outside and have had their pen enlarged twice. Personalities are definitely starting to emerge and they are playing for longer periods of time now. Potty training is going very well, super happy about that!
