Started
Puppies
* Sleeping through the night in their kennel
* Using a doggy door
* Vaccinations finished
* Sitting for attention
"Started Puppies" have started training on all of these points! If that sounds like a dream come true - keep reading!
"Started Puppies" are puppies who range in age from 16 weeks to a year old. They are consistently using a doggy door to go to the bathroom. They are sitting for attention instead of jumping up on you (and we will teach you how to continue that behavior when they go home with you!), they are finished with their Parvo vaccinations and have had their rabies vaccine - so they're ready to go to Doggy Day Care or the Dog Park from the day they go home. And they're sleeping through the night in their kennel!
With a foundation like that you'll be ready to hit the ground running with your new puppy! You will still have to help your puppy adjust to your schedule, working out your feeding times/potty times to avoid messes overnight, etc. But you will be working on building on a foundation instead of starting from scratch.

Amarillo - Available!
Amarillo is a beautiful Phantom. We chose a 'teddy bear' cut for her at the groomer and we absolutely love it. Yes, she is as soft as she looks!
​
Amarillo is quite new in our started program, but she did a great job at the groomer and the park where we went. She was doing a great job keeping her eyes on us and her tail displayed how pleased she was with herself when she would receive a verbal good job and a pat on the head. Ok, so it was more like a caress she is SO soft!
​
You can see videos of Amarillo here:
Amarillo is maturing on the smaller side, I expect she will be around 45 pounds like her mama. She is a slight and lovely girl. She may be smaller in size, but she is confident and ready to explore wherever you may want to go!

Buttercup - 45 lbs

Mack - Available!
Mack is a beautiful red Standard Poodle who is rocking the 'teddy bear' cut. He is amazingly soft and his color is just beautiful. Mack tends to be a bit on the shy side but gains confidence when he is around his sister. He would be a great homebody companion! He would much rather be close to my side then exploring the sights and smells around him. He has done a great job learning all I have asked him to do. I think he will mature to right around 60 lbs.

Sonny is a beautiful black and white parti standard poodle. Sonny is very mellow and chill. I think that this gentle and laid back personality only happens once or twice a year in our litters. Sonny is easy to have off leash, because he just wants to be right next to you. He doesn't jump up all over you. He is just a really sweet, gentle boy.
Sonny uses a doggy door, plays well with other dogs, and is waiting for the perfect family. Sonny would do great in a variety of environments, but would especially love a family who appreciates his calm demeanor.
