Looking for a poodle puppy ?
Read More: Looking for a poodle puppy ?⚠️ WARNING: You probably shouldn’t buy one of my Poodles. That may sound like an unusual thing for a breeder to say, especially when I have a puppy available, but experience has taught me that finding homes is the easy part.

LET’S MAKE GOOD DOGS IMPOSSIBLE TO MISS
Read More: LET’S MAKE GOOD DOGS IMPOSSIBLE TO MISSBUILD YOUR OWN ROADSIDE STAND Over the past few weeks I’ve found myself thinking about something that seems almost backwards.

The honest answer is that it is thousands of decisions made long before a puppy ever opens its eyes. A puppy is never where my work begins. By the…

LET’S MAKE GOOD DOGS IMPOSSIBLE TO MISS
Read More: LET’S MAKE GOOD DOGS IMPOSSIBLE TO MISSYesterday I wrote about the problem. Today I’d like to propose a solution. Because if good breeders are difficult to find, perhaps the answer isn’t waiting for families to somehow find us. Perhaps it’s time for all of us to put a stand by the road. On farms, the best produce is often discovered at…

LET’S MAKE GOOD DOGS IMPOSSIBLE TO MISS
Read More: LET’S MAKE GOOD DOGS IMPOSSIBLE TO MISSPART 1 — THE DISCOVERY PROBLEM I have carried this question for years while observing the preservation dog community invest generations of effort into refining breeding decisions, structure, temperament, health testing, and mentorship that develops gradually through experience and accumulated judgment rather than through any single moment of instruction or visibility.

Before Anything Has a Name
Read More: Before Anything Has a NameA few weeks ago I was in the kitchen portioning raw food while one freezer hummed, then another hummed, while three poodles watched me with the kind of focus usually reserved for stock traders monitoring a collapse. Outside, the guinea fowl were again announcing what sounded like the end of civilization. It turned out to…
