Maggie was adopted by wonderful people in the San Antonio area and she is all ready for Christmas!

Maggie is absolutely one of the sweetest poodles I have met. Raised with love and never abused, her owner is unable to keep her, and trusted me to find her a home. She is 7 years old, spayed, fully vaccinated, house dog, who had her own bed and play area. She has no bad habits, except her owner said she likes to drink out of the toilet. She is overweight, but with diet and exercise she could probably lose weight. We had to shave her, because her coat has really tight small curls and the matts were too close to the skin, but she was not neglected and very much enjoyed her grooming. She has lived her entire life with small dogs and she gets along well with my adult poodles. She has not been around cats. But she doesn't like to move fast, and does not appear to have any prey drive. She was not raised with small children, and I watched her look at a toddler like he was an alien. LoL! She showed no sign of aggression, just looked at him and turned her head away. She would be the perfect dog for an older adult. She can not be shipped, but we have met or delivered older adult dogs to the right home. Please message me if interested. Small adoption fee.

I want to show you some of my brown pups, with a couple of silvers thrown in the mix. Brown poodles don't seem to be as popular these days. the brown pups I have are very outgoing and gregarious. Probably not as laid back as my silver pups. However, I have one boy who likes to "saunter". During his Volhard testing when thrown a ball of paper, he looked at the tester, and slowly went to the ball, with his hips swaying back and forth, picked it up, looked at the tester, slowly and deliberately sauntered back to the tester, dropped it in front of him, and looked at him like, "yes, and what idiot task do you want me to do next". I laughed till I cried! I have photos of parents and more information on my Mithril standard poodle website.

I just recently learned that groups/individuals can spam your FB page. I have no relationship with groups that adopt or rehome Toy poodles. I have never owned a Toy poodle and the 2 mini's I have owned came from a AKC Platinum Breeder of Merit. I guess I need to learn how to block these people. I am for sure not a FB expert. I apologize to all of my friends if you are receiving these. Any words of wisdom on how stop/block these is appreciated.

One of my 10 week old male pups. He went for a ride in the truck with me. Sat quietly in my lap the whole time. He is one of 2 boys still available. Love this litter!

I was remis last month when Adriano Rocha of Blueline Kennels took our boy Luke to his 1st AKC show. Luke went reserve the 1st day, and won the next two shows. Today, only his 2nd time out with Adriano and they took a 4 point Major! Luke, already a UKC champion, is owned by me and Rachael Sann of Hillside Kennels in NY. Thanks Adriano for accepting our boy into your line up, and doing such a fantastic job with him!

What a beautiful painting by Maria Zoe Smirlis! It looks perfect up against the slate wall in my media room. My 1st akc poodle champion, Keanu was white. Love how she is looking at him.

I am posting this as a test. I have been receiving "threats" from FACEBOOK 2 to 3 times a week, stating they are going to block me. the reasons are different every time ie. I infringed on some ones proprietary rights, I offended someone, or I went against their standards. I have not posted since I re-homed some young adult dogs a few months ago. I have been told by the META team that they are phishing scams. Anyway I am checking to see if this post actually gets blocked. BTW, I do have two (one year old) ,trained poodles to rehome. One boy and one girl.

Finally, I have to brag on Stepheni Lazar's boy Floyd. He attained his AKC championship last month. Stepheni was gracious enough to allow me to use him with my girl Storm last year, and they produced highly intelligent, loving, and beautiful pups. Shown in the posts just below this one.
