About the Breeder
A little about us
I’ve owned poodles for over twenty years, I can't imagine a day without having a poodle in my house. I love being able to provide a beautiful, confident, well socialised puppy to new families.
Why we got involved in breeding
When my mini poodle was 17, I started searching for a new poodle puppy, as I knew Poppy wouldn't like being alone. My friend and breed Mentor, suggested I breed Poppy, she is correct in conformation, healthy and has a wonderful temperament. Poppy had a litter of six and I kept her daughter Lulu.
Our special touch
I follow the Puppy Culture method of raising and socialising puppies, they come home to you well socialised and already toileting on their mat !
