Poodles are renowned for their brilliant minds, eager-to-please temperaments, and loyal hearts. These pups are easy-to-train, allergy-friendly, energetic and considered to be gentle giants. Their coats are non-shedding curly coats that do require weekly brushing and professional grooming every 4-6 weeks to keep matting and tangles to a minimum. Depending on the doodle Sire used is a Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever or Border Collie, the puppy’s coats could change with the more dominant DNA pair. Labs, Golden Retrievers and Border Collie’s are all intelligent, loyal, affectionate and energetic dogs, so pairing with a Standard Poodle like ours makes for the perfect furry family member.

The non-refundable deposit is applied toward the total purchase price of the puppy.
