Everyone meet Zaira. 2.5 months ago this girl came to stay with us. She is 18 months old and a half sister to one of Mama Bs litters (same sire). Our co-owner Michele at Standard Poodles of Forest Lakes has shown her to her UKC championship. She is still very much a puppy but has settled into our pack like she has always been there. We will be working on her UKC Grand CH and we have started her health testing. As long as everything goes to plan, she will hopefully have her first litter next year or early 2028. Miss Z is co-owned with Michele at Standard Poodles of Forest Lakes.

Tater made her debut in AKC ring with her Co-owner Michele from Standard Poodles of Forest Lakes. We are very grateful for her knowledge and experience getting Tater out there. Tater is a wild child and a handful. She does not lack personality and is full of sass. Here's to the start of a good show career.

Impatiently awaiting confirmation!

⚔️ The Heroes of Asgard ⚔️

The next chapter in this adventure has commenced.

Valkyrie and Deacon recently enjoyed a successful romantic rendezvous, and now we are in the midst of the hardest part...the wait. 😬

For the next couple of weeks, we'll be watching and hoping until we can perform an ultrasound to see if this exciting pairing has been successful. Until then, we're simply enjoying the anticipation and keeping our fingers crossed. 🤞

What makes this breeding so exciting is how beautifully these two complement one another not only in structure and pedigree, but in temperament.

Valkyrie is the perfect blend of lady and tomboy. She can spend hours romping with both her human and canine friends, full of enthusiasm and athleticism, then happily curl up for a nap or cuddle the moment playtime is over. Above all else, she adores her people. Her unwavering devotion and eagerness to please make her an absolute joy to live with.

Deacon is the life of the party. He's a happy-go-lucky goofball who has never met a stranger. Whether he's traveling to a dog show, visiting friends, enjoying trivia night at a local hangout, or simply spending time with his family and pack, Deacon approaches life with contagious enthusiasm. His affectionate, outgoing personality wins over nearly everyone he meets.

If this breeding is successful, we hope the puppies will inherit the very best of both parents: confidence, playful energy balanced by an easy off-switch, intelligence, trainability, and the deep devotion that makes Standard Poodles such extraordinary companions.

We'll share an update after ultrasound day. Until then, we'd appreciate everyone keeping their fingers crossed for Valkyrie!

Deacon has been away with friends the last few weeks while girls are in heat. We are not breeding any of our girls this cycle. So to keep the sanity in the house he has been on "vacation" and he loves it.

Happy 4th of July from Tater. Who passed her star puppy this week and graduated puppy class.

Rohnin is from a Briar X Romeo litter.

Absolutely incredible weekend for Rhonin!

Rhonin, out of Briar at Meeker’s Ridge Standard Poodles and sired by my beloved Romeo — AmCH UKC NBOB MBIS MRBIS RBISS SGCH Canen Gossamer Stardust of Forest Lakes BCAT CGC RACEA SPOT-ON VCX — has been in the process of developing his beautiful corded coat for approximately three years with his dedicated mom, Chelsa. That is dedication!!

Handled beautifully by his dad, Matt, Rhonin showed only on Sunday and completely exceeded all expectations by earning:
• Two Champion class wins over 2 others
• A Best of Breed
• A Group 2 placement
• These last two wins over a highly accomplished Grand Champion and 2 other champions
• *His UKC Grand Championship title!*

Anyone familiar with corded coats understands the extraordinary level of dedication, maintenance, and conditioning required to present a dog like this successfully. Showcasing correct structure, movement, and presentation beneath a fully developed corded coat is no small accomplishment.

We are incredibly proud of Rhonin and so happy to see both his quality and the tremendous work Matt and Chelsa have invested in him recognized in the ring.

Congratulations to Team Rhonin on an unforgettable milestone weekend!
