INFORMATION

I do not  sell to puppy mills, puppy brokers, or kennels. I do not sell my babies at flea markets, nor do I sit with my babies on SuperCenter parking lots or on the side of the road.  I place my babies in loving homes.  ALL my poodles live in my home .  I want my babies to go a home just like the one they were born in.  I spend a lot of time with my furkids. Please make sure you are willing to do the same.    I reserve the right to refuse any buyer at any time ,while the puppy is still in my possession, if I feel like its not a good match for any reason.

Color Bred RED?
Color bred RED means the parents pedigree is all red, or red and black behind them. Mac, Rosie, Robin, and Keeper are color bred RED. Beauty's RED babies are classified as color bred red because she is 75% red, 25% black. Black hybrids produce very dark red puppies.
Annie can have red puppies when bred to Mac or Keeper, but they are not classified as color bred red because Annie is NOT color bred red. Her mother is, but her sire is white. Their red color will start to fade at about 15 months old.
Bella has a red girl, she is not color bred red because Bella is not. Bella and Annie have LOTS of red behind them, but they also have white behind them, white dilutes the red.
NOTE:  ALL red fades with time, color bred or not. Actually most all colors fade except white, and it may 'yellow' over time. You need to love your dog for who it is,  not just for the color.
I have pictures posted of my red poodles from puppy up thru present so  you can see how they grow and 'fade'. Some pet owners and breeders use a henna shampoo or rinse on their poodles. Thats great, but I like to show how it is in real life. You can buy shampoo specifically for red coats to darken the coat. If  you'd like your red poodle to be dark all its life, thats just the ticket for you! :o)

TEXAS STATE SALES TAX:
your price includes Texas State Sales Tax. Puppy Sales are taxable in Texas.  I absorb this tax.  The price of the puppy is the same for everybody no matter if you live in another state that is not required to pay the sales tax.
 I also pay federal income tax on my puppy money because it's part of my income.

Shipping:
 
I prefer not to ship my babies.

EGGS: Jan 5, 2009
I have 14 hens, hatched July 15, 2008, delivered priority mail to me. I just got my first egg!!! YEE HAW  Now my poodles will sure nuff get home grown eggs in their wet food!!
I have 7 barred Rock, and 7 New Hampshire Reds. 
I have been paying nearly $3 a doz for cage free/ organic/ or free range eggs.  Not anymore!!

WET FOOD MIX #2: I keep tweaking this recipe!!!
and what I do now ,as of Jan 2010
 2 lb  80 or 85 %  Ground Beef
6 Fluffy Whisked Eggs
2 c cooked brown rice (I use instant)
2 Lrg cartons Cottage Cheese
Eukanuba Puppy Dry & Zach's Puppy
Pinch of Dried Minced Garlic
 
I put  about 5 or 6  cups of Zach's Puppy and Dry Euk Puppy mixed,  in bowl . (I use double that, but mix up in 2 batches.)
I scramble gr. beef slowly until done, do not over cook. Add pinch garlic.
I whisk 6 fresh brown eggs w/fork until very fluffy and add to cooked beef. Stir and fold until soft and done. DO NOT OVER COOK.
Let cool to warm, add br rice , stir well. Add 1/2 beef mix to DRY food. Stir well.
Add 1 -24oz carton of Cottage Cheese and stir again. Add a splash of pure water and stir well.  The dry food soaks up the juice of the beef mix and I assume has better flavor, and its not 'mush'.  Cover and refrigerate.  I repeat for second batch.  Since the dry food is  not 'mush' you dont feed quite as much because it  has a dry texture and will swell up more after they eat it. 
Take out portions for meal, let set to room temp, or warm slightly in saucepan.
 
If you have only one or two dogs, you can adjust the measurements. You will be using Eukanuba only, because Zach's is made locally.

How Much Is That Puppy?
 
       I offer very affordable companion poodles to enrich your life!  They are varied in color such as Apricot, Black, Cream, Phantom and Red w/ white.  In order to make them  affordable, I will not ship them. You must pick them up at my home.
I also have  Dark Red poodles that are just as precious, but the price is  more, simply because they are Dark Red.
ALL my babies are sold as pets.  I do not sell for breeding.
 
       Color Bred RED puppies cost a little more  simply because they are **DARK  RED** and I paid a small fortune for my RED Poodles.  Email for price. 
     All my puppies have gone on to wonderful homes and are loved and cherished.  I get pictures and stories of my babies, and I love hearing from them.  It warms my heart to hear how my poodle baby has lifted someone's life and healed their heart etc.

Rennie's Wet Food #1
Low fat ground beef, whisked eggs, cottage cheese
Boil the beef in distilled water. when done, drizzle egg into the pot as you whisk the beef mix. Let cool til WARM,  pour over high quality dry dog food, stir. Cool a bit longer, add cottage cheese, stir ,let soak, may need a bit more water. Cool a few min, cover,  put in fridge.
Amount of ingredients depends on how many dogs you have.
I use 1 lb beef, 1/2 c instant br. rice,  6 eggs and big carton of  cottage cheese.  4 c. dry food.
You can adjust to how much you need. It can also be frozen in serving size portions.  Keeps good in fridge for several days.
This is a great alternative to canned dog food. You know exactly what's  in it. Your dry food needs to be high quality!!
****DO NOT OVER FEED YOUR DOG!! *****Wet food makes dogs fat! This food is made specially for tiny dogs, picky eaters, sick dogs, whelping mothers, growing puppies, and the elderly.
****************
Amount for your puppy:
2 cup Euk Puppy, 1/2 lb lean gr beef, 1 or 2 eggs, 1/2 c Cottage cheese.
 

TEACUP INFO:
Please read over the teacup links on the links page.  Teacups are special little poodles. They need a special home and lots of attention.  You need to know about the care of teacups.  They need to eat often, and require snacks such as vanilla yogurt or sweet breakfast cereal.  You need to be financially stable enough to be able to take care of any need that arises. They are NOT a child's pet. This can also apply to some tiny toys.

A Note About COLLARS:
This happened to my neighbors little doxie, and today a customer told me it happened to her sisters little dog in the house.
My neighbors little doxie stays outside during the day, she got her collar caught on a screw trying to get under the house.  She flip flopped and squirmed and twisted her collar until she strangled herself to death. The customers sister got hers caught on the pull knob of the cabinet door in the bathroom. Luckily this lady was home and found her in time. She is OK, but they have taken the collar off her. My neighbors loosened all her dogs collars and finally took them off.
I have replaced all my snap-lock collars with the cat safety collars with all new plastic tags. I also bought a couple of the step in harness just in case I need to put a leash on them sometime.
AKC requires that all breeding dogs be ID'd with tags or tatoo or microchip. I choose to do collars at this time. If one of mine were to get out, nobody in this place would even think to check to see if they were microchipped!
Another puppy hung himself on the drapery cord while the family was gone for just a little while. I have read of other dogs hanging on certain types of baby gates. I had a puppy chew the edge off a vinyl table cloth, stick its head thru the loose edge, turned circles and would have choked if I'd not come home when I did.  I just heard another story of a lab getting his collar hung on the brake pedal in the vehicle, almost died before they could cut off the collar!!!
You just never know and never think it will happen to you.

I am a breeder.....

My food receipts for my family of 7  and my dog food bills match
My water bill has doubled
My electric has tripled
It is I, a breeder, who when my fridge quit, saved the dog meds and
let the food go bad.
My feet find the way to the kennel before I have even grabbed a cup
of coffee in the morning and the kennel is my last stop before bed.
While my friends are on a cruise to the
Bahamas and my family meets
for Christmas I am home delivering puppies
I haven't had a real vacation in 7 years, but maybe soon. All plans
are made around heat dates, whelp dates and vet dates.
I shower and 10 minutes later my grand kids say I smell like a dog
My clothes are all stained with fecal matter, urine, afterbirth or
bleach  

Most of my friends breed dogs
who else can you call at 3 am for support?
Who else has the experience I sometimes need, the med I sometimes
need, or just an uplifting word I sometimes need ? Who else would
understand how it feels to have invested hours and hours and hours in
a weak puppy to lose it? Or the joy in investing hours in one that
lives?
 

my vet knows me by first name
the vet knows my children
the vet now knows my grand children
my vet knows it was I who added on the wing to the vet clinic
I am a breeder

It is to me that 63 days takes on new meaning still excited by every
new life
it is I who delivers all my pups, towels and heat lamps on ready
happiness and sadness sometimes intermingled
Even though it increases my work load, I look forward to the 10 day
stage when eyes open, and puppies begin to emerge from the
helplessness of newborns. Puppy breath, a first bark. and a heart of
exploration.
I am not uneducated, unemployable, illiterate or lazy as some Animal
Rights folks would imply of breeders. I am a conscientious lover of
animals and I have found my niche.
I am a breeder.

And although I feel no shame there is a part of me that feels the
need to hide from powers that could come to invade my home and take
my dogs ...maybe for finding a mild infraction, a leaf in the water
dish? A kennel not yet cleaned for the day?
A rash I am home treating? I tell my children and grand children to
hush, do not tell others we are dog breeders, and I wonder when did
breeding puppies go into the same secret place as criminal activity?
I am a breeder and I am not cruel, dumb, uncaring or criminal. I am
not raking in money while sitting on my butt. Every penny I make I
earn through blood, sweat and tears. My greatest joy is a healthy
puppy and a wonderful home. The cards of thanks and the pictures of
my puppy with its new family is the fringe benefits of my efforts. I
am an animal lover, nurse, midwife, heavy laborer, customer service
representative, and marketer. AND I am a breeder.
