Our Poodles
  We
breed only standard poodles They are bred to be big and healthy,
contrary to the objectives of many breeders where a lighter smaller
frame has become favoured.
Careful breeding is tempered by gentle and frequent handling
and stimulation from ourselves, other dogs and visiting adults
and children.
We are prepared to sell our dogs almost anywhere in the world,
but only to prospective purchasers who we believe will make good
owners.
We do not dock our puppies' tails
We routinely test for
- Progressive Retinal Atrophy - PRA:
- Hip Dysplasia - HD
- von Willebrand's disease - vWD
 We
are always interested in new blood. We would be interested to
hear from owners of large stud dogs, meeting the following requirements:
- Black, brown or apricot
- Big, handsome and well put together
- Excellent temperament
- No genetic conditions in the genealogy for at least five
generatiuons, including
- addison's disease
- juvenile renal disease
- hip dysplasia
- autoimmune hemolytic anemia
- chronic active hepatitis
- neonatal encephalopathy
- epilepsy
- polymicrogyria
- Tests for those gentic contditions that can be tested, currently
PRA,HD and vWD
- No chronic eye, ear or coat problems
- Good teeth
- Pedigree available for scrutiny
- We do not require show results (in many countries the size
of poodles we like to produce are ‘too large’ to
compete)
