Do these Standard Poodle breeders look reputable?
If you where going to buy a Standard Poodle, would you consider one of these breeders? Windsong is the one I like the most.
Windsong Standard Poodles
At Windsong, we have had standard poodles as members of our family for over 40 years. Our hobby is training poodles, with a concentration on competing in hunt tests; they are one of the most versatile breeds, and are happiest when they are doing something with their owners. Windsong standard poodles have competed for and received titles in field (hunting), obedience, agility and tracking, as well as serving as therapy dogs. We breed an occasional litter of red and apricot puppies, concentrating on health, temperament and potential for performance success. Windsong puppies are socialized to people, including children, and other dogs and cats. They are exposed to birds in the nest and get to try swimming at 6-7 weeks. They make wonderful pets and are well-suited to any activities their owners may wish to pursue. All puppies are sold on limited registration - they cannot be bred, but may compete in any dog sport except conformation.
Health Screening: Hips X-rayed (OFA), eyes certified (CERF) yearly, blood test for thyroid (OFA), von Willebrand's clear by parentage (genetic testing)
My Poodles whose test results can be confirmed:
Lidos I Love Lucy, JH, RN, WC, TT
CH Lidos Chimera Harley-Davidson, UDX, OA, AXJ, WC, TT, TDI
Samali Isabelle, UDX, TDX, AX, AXJ, VCD3, TT, TDI

Tiara Black Standard Poodles
RAISING YOUR STANDARDS
Leading the Poodle breed in health screenings achieved and registered, Julie and Kirk Reed of Tiara Black Standard Poodles challenge other Poodle Breeders to accomplish at least the basic CHIC health screenings always before breeding their Poodles. Currently breeding the sixth generation of Tiara CHIC designated Standard Poodles, the Reeds place a great concern for increased/maintained longevity averages in their line of handsome, winning Poodles.
CHIC is an acronym for Canine Health Information Center and every shopper of any breed of dog or cat should be made aware of the great information that can be gleaned from that database.
The Tiara Poodles are reared holistically and the breeders are currently feeding the third generation fed a raw diet. New owners are encouraged to rear their dogs the same and there is an extensive network or "clan" as they refer to themselves of the Tiara Poodle owners.
Public education is a primary focus and new fanciers are encouraged to become involved in dog sports. The Tiara Poodles are very athletic and can be seen winning in agility trials in several regions of the United States.
Coefficiencies of inbreeding (COIs) are produced at under 6 % for 10 generations at Tiara. The average in Std Pdls is now at or just over 20% for 10 generations. The Std Pdl gene pool is thought to be shrinking.
There are many interesting links to study on all the above subjects at www.tiarapoodles.com
Grandeur Standard Poodles
We are a small kennel, breeding quality Standard Poodles for both the show ring and the pet home. Our goal is to be the best, not the biggest. We are extremely proud of our dogs accomplishments including those who have gone on to be devoted and beloved family pets. Our poodles are not kennel dogs. From the moment they are whelped, they live in our home and are tenderly raised to be loving, well socialized members of the family.
The development of a line of Standard Poodles takes patience, vision, and a commitment to the breed. We work toward improving the breed, one generation at a time. We have structured our breeding program with this goal in mind. We plan our breedings carefully with dogs who have been tested to be clear of genetic problems, who are Champions and who have great temperaments. Breeding poodles is an honor and a privilege. It is our passion, not our business!
Puppies sold as companion dogs are sold with limited registration and require spay/neuter contracts. They are still AKC registered purebred standard poodles, however, they cannot be bred. This is how the reputable breeders protect their breeding programs from misuse. Please visit our website and meet our poodle family.
