Elvis was a firecracker today, but he came out to win! He won the grand class in ring one, then went on to win the grand class, and best of breed in stunning line up of around 15 poodles. He then showed beautifully in a large gun dog class taking a group one
Our handsome blue boy grabbed a grand champion class win today it a huge class of beautiful dogs!
This:
It’s not the prettiest day, but Elvis is back to being my boy!! Winners dog and best of breed owner handled!
💫Best in Show!!!💫
I hardly even have words, I’m so proud of my boy today! Elvis pranced into ring two and decided it was his day! Thank you judge Nikki Swap for seeing Elvis in some beautiful line ups 💗
Showing is always a roller coaster with ups and downs. I have lots of dreams for this boy and I have to remember to get out of my own head. Elvis loves this game and I have to remember to just have fun.
Thank you Rose Childers for breeding this handsome young man and putting him in my hands, today was his 3rd Best in show at only 19 months old. Thank you Shawn for ALWAYS being my cheerleader, listening, and helping pull me out of my own head. Thank you to those of you who have listened to me rant recently and then helped me problem solve what was being seen. This takes a community and I’m very blessed to have you all
And that’s a wrap for day 1!
Today we ventured back out into AKC conformation, at a Poodle Specialty on Ohio. Elvis won his class in both shows and then took reserve winners dog to the major! I am so very proud of this boy. He showed beautifully (maybe a bit goofy) in a group of stunning dogs 💗
Cooper is a Service dog in training that I’ve been working with. He’s with me for a board and train and we have made huge progress! Today he’s enjoying his first restaurant outing 💗
All of our foundation work is starting to come together, and I’m excited for all the help he will be fir his dad
We are at an event of about 1500 people this weekend! Being able to work this girl and help on of our in training pups learn about events like this is so rewarding. Fern is a fantastic ambassador for both service dogs and standard poodles
He may be the only standard currently in ‘24 top 10 list, but I’m gonna enjoy this #1 placement while it lasts 😅
Brina maintenance bath day, turning her white again 🤣
There is absolutely nothing wrong with using gates and crates, especially in multi dog families. Every dog deserves individual time
Let's get real for a second.
The world often paints a picture that dogs who live together are best friends and do everything together.
This is just not true. Many many many multidog household utilize management in different situations to allow dogs personal space to enjoy things such as:
- feeding time
- chew time
- play time
- attention time
This. Is. Normal.
Just because someone utilizes management, doesn't mean their dogs don't enjoy each other's company or have fun together. It just means that there are certain activities that they prefer to do on their own.
And I will tell you firsthand that implementing safe space zones and time apart can be so beneficial to the relationship between two dogs.
Think about it-- do you enjoy doing every single activity that you do at home with your spouse, family, or sibling RIGHT there? I don't think so.
So let's normalize management between dogs who live together!!
Do you want to work on your dogs' relationship and/or interactions? Go to my website here to schedule a private consult: perkedears.com/private-training-sessions
This sentiment right here is so important. I strive to keep your pup in the look you want. However your pups comfort comes first. I will do what needs to be done and what your dog will tolerate. Sometimes it means I have to have a dog down because I won’t spend hours pulling on them to demat their coat, other times it quick short cut with little scissor work because a senior dog can’t stand for it any more
Now you can shop magnets! I’ll be spending the day converting all my dog sticker designs into magnets for you!

Everyone is sharing their year end wrap ups. Elvis blew me away with all of his accomplishments, we were just having fun.
Elvis earned his UKC championship, grand champion, emerald grand champion, and has 4 1/3 of the 5 legs needed towards his Ruby grand champion. He won best of breed 30 times and then placed in group 20 times, 8 of those times were group 1s. He started his show career winning reserve best puppy in show his first weekend out, and finished his season winning Best in show. He ran his first qualifying runs in lure coursing and earned a total dog.
In AKC he’s earned 4 points and has placed in the owner handled group 2 times. He has earned his Canine good citizen, and novice trick dog. He is ready to test for his community canine and his CGC-U.
Then to top it all off he’s proven himself to be a pretty amazing service dog. He’s proven to be a natural at medical alerts, cardiac, blood sugar and migraine. He’s excelling in his public access training and we are just proofing behaviors and building confidence at this point.
I’m so proud of him and can’t wait to jump into ‘24
Anne Rogers Clark certainly knew poodles!

Brina maintenance bath day, turning her white again 🤣
I don’t groom many doodles, but how could I say no to this sweet boy! His coat is very poodle like too 💕
Miss Stella (bred by Theory Standard Poodles) is always so happy to come visit and get her hair done! She is always a joy to work with, and another pup who gets a hand scissor trim
Getting groomed with Everly, bred by MyTyme Kennels This boy is so sweet and has a great coat for scissor work
🎶All the pretty girls walk like this 🎶 Well our handsome boys too! Brina and Elvis (Ability Poodles) are 6 months old and we are working hard to get in the ring to start working towards titles. Elvis is in an awkward puppy stage after a big growth spurt, but you can still see his amazing reach and drive. Brina is ON right now, we are working on her paying attention to where she is going instead of running into me 😝 and lessening her joyful polar bear bounces while gaiting I adore this age with puppies, they have a grasp on the basics, and there is only a touch of teenage ’tude. It’s a great time to see those first glimpses of who your pup will mature into
Weekly maintenance bath and banding for Mister (Aglow Standard Poodles)
Casper bred by Croton Pines Standard Poodles LLC got all cleaned up and shaped up. His legs are still growing out but his cut is coming along nicely
Grooming Everly 💕
I’m so proud of this boy! We have grown so much as a team 💕 Mister decided to start his year strong! He won his class, best of breed, non sporting group 1, then Best of Match!
Just remember this is a crazy week for groomers! Show them you care, snacks and caffeine are always appreciated, and most of all be kind 💕 we are at the end of our busiest season and doing our best to make sure everyone in nice and fresh for their families holiday parties
Crate training is suddenly clicked for Brina, watch my Instagram reels (@pawsitively_perfect_training) or TikTok (pawsitively_perfect) for little how to videos
Groomed this doll baby yesterday! She is a beautifully bred (from Theory Standard Poodles) little girl with some great movement! I did her face, feet, tail band and cleaned up her lines. We worked mainly on having fun and making grooming a positive experience 💕 We also practiced stacking on the table and gaiting, then standing a little bit when she was done. She also got a bit of poodle time and was able to say hi to my gaggle of standards through the gate both before and after her groom.
Fritz came to see me for the first time today. Life got busy and unfortunately he ended up rather matted. I hate having to strip a dog down. Luckily I was able to carefully save some hair and put him into this adorable modified German trim with a fuzzy face. I usually prefer clean faces on my poodles, but this is really high in my favorites list 💕
Top knot basics with Oban
Conformation take tons of work outside of the ring. For poodles we have daily grooming chores along with weekly baths and trims. But then there are classes, and practice and seminars that are key to pulling it all together
Jesse came for her first groom with me! Her previous groomer did a number on this beautiful girl and left her choppy and uneven. I got her fixed up right in a nice short stylish trim that will be easy to maintain 💕 her mom loves it and she now on a regular monthly schedule with me #pawsitivelyperfecttraining #pawsitivelyperfectgrooming #standardpoodle #standardpoodlesofinstagram #standardpoodlegrooming #grooming #groomersofinstagram
