Puppies of Violet Standard Poodles
A lot of time and attention go into my puppies from far before they are even conceived. Some examples after whelping is the constant 24 hour observation of room temperature & making sure everyone is doing well continuing to strive along with the constant care of my girl in whelp from her upraising, health screening, conformation showing to prove her quality and temperament before hand.
I rarely leave the room in the first few days sleeping beside the whelping box.
I usually sleep in the room for the first 3-4 weeks or longer to make sure everyone is warm and doing well. My bitch is not only my puppies dam but she is also my beloved pet and one of the loves of my life! I do not want anything to happen to her either! This is not just about having puppies and raising a litter.
I take the raising of my puppies very seriously.

A Health Record will be included with each puppy showing their schedule of deworming and vaccinations. Giardia - is something seriously to consider treatment for while deworming especially living in the Pacific NorthWest!!! It is believed approximately 80% of our pets are carriers of it.
Stress may exhibit symptoms. For this reason and many others is why I firmly require you to pick up immediately once your pet has done their business and to be able to see what is going on with your pet.
Puppies play both outside and in my house, where they also get a good introduction to watching TV with us & learn some basic manners ;)
My puppies are all CrateTrained as they learn it is a part of their daily lives and schedules. They are fed in the crates so they quickly run to them waiting for their meals as do my adults. It is also a good safe temporary place for them when you are not able to give proper supervision to keep them hopefully away from any
harm or poisons. Learn Animal CPR
**POISON CONTROL**
A word of caution on wire crates. I never start with a wire crate for training. They are used only for the older crate trained pups or adults where they are used to being crated and are not stressed in crates.
In the added Link, I do not know if these animals were crate trained or not causing their very unfortunate Injuries and Fatalities. I use and strongly suggest the heavier sturdy plastic crates like the old Vari-Kennels and not the wire crates in the vehicle due to the chance an accident happens the welds on the wire crates break and can spear your .................I think you get the idea here. You may need to search for a good old sturdy Vari-Kennels as the new ones (the Ultra Vari-Kennels) are a softer plastic with the top giving way when pressed down on top. I may use them in the house but prefer not to use in my vehicle and I would never even think of shipping a dog in it ever!!!
Someone from one of my Showdog Lists have shared this on
a car accident with dogs where they were all very lucky to have walked away with no injuries!!!
For the dog and owners I strongly also suggest your puppy to be properly restrained while traveling. I have heard far too many tragic stories to see one of my babies I have just spend hundreds of hours with drive off already set up for a disaster!!! I also find the dogs prefer to be in a crate while traveling as they are very secure in there and it is what they know.
Along with puppies being fed in their crates, this is where they sleep every night. Here they learn it is their own private den where they get to eat, play and sleep.
It is a happy place to be. Never for punishment.
Walking your puppy
Please use a 6 " leash over a flexi-lead. Flexi leads can be dangerous for if a situation occurs you have an out of control dogs or puppy. I have been "lead burnt" on the back of neck by one while at a park.....! Have also helped "catch a puppy while being chase by a big scary flexi lead" Also keep your puppy/poodle leashed at all times for the fear of being taken by Coyotes can be great!!!
I do not believe in early puppy spay or neutering.
Please read what Dr.Chris Zink
believes here at Canine Sports Productions.
*When you come to pick puppy up for home please do NOT expect this to be a quick event. . . I want to go over many things regarding the puppy and you with hands on time in the event you have traveled a long way!!! You may want to check into a hotel for the night so we can break your time up into anywhere from two or a few different days so I know that the puppy is adjusting well and the same for you. This is most important for success!!

Please view my health screenings on the parents as provided on my site under OFA. You may fill out my Questionnaire where we can take further steps towards possible ownership of a puppy. Please only serious inquiries as time is very precious in the preparation of a litter not to mention the time consumed raising a litter of puppies!!! :)

Just A Pet !?

My little Rhoda
A special thank you to Joy Cenicola from Casa Strega Poodles
for her permission allowing me to use her
"Just A Pet"
" We only want a pet" This phrase is heard so often. I think what most people do not understand is that "just a pet" has to be as close as possible to the written breed standard as the show dog. The most important thing that makes a good pet is over all good health. This includes mental health (good temperament and personality) as well as physical health. For good physical health a puppy needs a strong immune system. Proper structure and movement are also necessary so the bones and joints do not develop problems later in life
(such as Hip Dysplasia or loose Patellas).
"Just a pet" should be the dogs in a well bred healthy litter that may have minor faults in structure that are strictly of cosmetic value. Perhaps a slightly rounder eye than desired in the breed ring, or a tail carried slightly lower or higher than perfect. It may be a personality conflict since sometimes the most perfectly structured and moving dog just does not have that moving out strut your stuff look at me - aren't I beautiful attitude needed for the "show dog" to be truly competitive, yet is the ideal mellow pup to be the perfect family companion.
"Just a pet" should not be a dog of inferior breeding, poor conformation, poorly raised or of bad temperament, but should be as well bred, socialized, properly fed & carefully nurtured as the finest show dog to give you the best possible family companion. We do not breed dogs specifically to show. We breed beautiful healthy dogs for you to enjoy as family companions, obedience, rally & agility competitors and to work with as therapy dogs.
We do the best we can to provide the healthiest dogs possible, both mentally and physically for those of you who want "just a pet".

Thank you again Joy for words well written!!

The Rules of Seven
Well Socialized Pups - The Rules of Seven Easy Steps to Well Socialized Pups - Author Unknown
Here are the Rules of Seven:
By the Time a Puppy is Seven Weeks old he or she should have: Walked on 7 different types of surfaces: carpet, concrete, wood, vinyl, grass, dirt, gravel, wood chips, plastic tarps, etc.
Played with 7 different types of objects: big balls, small balls, soft fabric toys, fuzzy toys, squeaky toys, paper or cardboard items, metal items, sticks or hose pieces.
Been in 7 different home-based locations: front yard, back yard, basement, kitchen, car, garage, laundry room, bathroom, workshop or rec room.
Met and played with 7 new people: include children and older adults, someone walking with a cane or stick, someone in a wheelchair or walker, tall people, short people, men with beards, people who smoke (or people who do not smoke if you do), people in yellow rain slickers, people with an umbrella over their heads.
Been exposed to 7 challenges: climb on a box, climb off a box, go through a tunnel, climb steps, go down steps, climb over obstacles, play hide and seek, in and out of a doorway with a step up or down, run around a fence, ride in a child’s wagon.
Eaten from 7 different containers; metal, plastic, cardboard, paper plate, china, pie plate, frying pan.
Eaten in 7 different locations: crate, yard, kitchen, basement, laundry room, living room, bathroom.
During the next 7 weeks of pup’s life (ages 8-15 weeks), he should experience at least 7 of the following things every week:
Car rides (preferably 2-3 times a week)
New people (preferably 2-3 times a week)
New locations off the premises (at least twice a week - Grandma’s house, the park, Lowe's, Home Depot or other stores that allow dogs, friend’s homes, puppy classes, quick visit to the reception area of the vet’s office just to get a cookie from the employees )
New toys and novel noises (dishwasher, child’s fire engine toy, vacuum, CD of baby noises if you don’t have an infant, various noisemakers)
Children of all ages (never allow pup to jump up or nibble on them, keep pup under control on leash)
As with all socializing, it is important not only to expose your puppy to new things, but to set things up so that each experience will be a positive one.
If you have followed the “rules of seven”, then by the age of 16 weeks, your pup should be ready for formal training, he should have very little fear of anything novel because he is feeling confident and ready to face the world!

USDA Licensed Kennels

I do not sell to Puppymills, Backyard Breeders, Brokers, Pet Stores

or support Designers Dogs or Poodle mixes!
Nor do I ship Overseas!
I require meeting my Prospective Puppy Buyers please.

Chains Off Dogs Deserve Better

Click on photo for DOGS DESERVE BETTER website
Dogs Deserve Better
Click above to visit this great informative and helpful website to help educate the public! Please do the homework and learn what that particular dog was breed for whenever you are looking for a family pet to add to your family.
This research on the breed of dog you are choosing will help educate you for they all have different needs and instincts that must be met to have a happy family pet! Keeping your family dog chained outside is just plain wrong and you have no business in owning that dog unless you can meet the needs.
This is something I have in my Puppy Contract stating that no puppies/dogs shall ever be chained outside, live outside or ride in the back of a pick up truck ever!
