Gus is a very handler oriented, driven dog, who loves to work. He had a late start in the field but will tear ground up with the best of them. He is a clown at home and enjoys a snuggle from anyone. He is a very sensitive dog and can easily be overwhelmed in training if the handler let's their emotions get involved. He is a classic aloof poodle while still being engaged and friendly. He works well in a group or alone, he has a good nose and stays on task consistently. He is the tenth ever, and first ever multi colored poodle to earn his Upland Hunter title, which he did without failing a single test a weekend after finishing his UKC championship. He is structurally correct and collected multiple group placements in UKC and IABCA. He also recently sired a litter at 7! Nothing like an old healthy dog still running and still producing.

Gus has stamped all his offspring with his very hard handler orientation and some of his drive. He has been out producing himself with ease most notably adding amazing length of neck, rear angulation, and lovely face.
After a very rocky start Lucien was collected by his breeder and now lives a state away! Thrilled to watch this handsome man finally blossom in a home that loves him. Already started in his AKC and UKC careers.
Patsy hit the show ring as a puppy receiving tons of compliments on her beautiful face and personality, finishing her championship with limited showing under a year. She is an absolute performance dog to the core. She did end up coming to stay here a bit looking for her final place but she found one and I can't wait to see where they take her!
This stunning boy started his journey as a service dog and upon maturing his owner graciously is allowing this young man to compete in multiple conformation venues as an OH in which he is doing incredible for a dog who didn't have the young exposure.
