New Stud Dog...Yogi

Yogi a 1 1/2 yr old Red Poodle Stud

Dixie is coming really close to her breeding days.  I was all prepared to travel with her to Pennsylvania this weekend, and then I was able to reach another breeder that I had researched.

So now let me introduce Yogi the Red poodle stud.  Yogi is 1 1/2 years old AKC stud dog.  He has great red color in his lineage and throws nice red puppies even though his poodle bride is a light cream girl.  He is a young stud which could be an advantage....Soo I have decided to move Timmy the stud to second place.  Yogi is now my first choice for a stud.

An added advantage is that Yogi is much more convenient to where I live.  And look how gorgeous he is!!!

Yogi is indeed a beautiful boy.  He lives with his Mom and first poodle love, Bearly.  They are part of a 2 dog family.  Their Mom brought the breeding pair with her from California where she had lived until recently.  I love the fact that Yogi is not a kennel dog, but a beloved member of the family.  This will be easier experience for Dixie since I will not have to board her in a strange place and I can be present with her during the breeding.

I will take Dixie to visit Yogi on Monday morning.  Hopefully Dixie and Yogi are instant friends.  But don't be surprised if they are rather shy on their first visit.  Sometimes it takes a few days for Dixie and her stud to warm up to one anothers.

I have an appointment for Monday...I will let you know how it goes!!!!

Schnoodles Puppies coming early March!

Dugan is a 9 lb Toy Poodle.  He looks just like this red poodle. 

Announcement Puppies due March 11, 1011! 

This year's litter will be Schnoodle puppies. Today, I took Dixie, our ACA Registered Mini Schnauzer to Waterford Kennels where I bred her to an AKC registered Toy Poodle.  The poodles name is Peter.  He is a gorgeous red color and 9 lbs.

The resulting litter will be ICA Registered Schnoodle Puppies (International Canine Association).  The ICA is the breed registry for all Hybrid bred dogs.  The Schnoodle is considered a Hybrid breed, also popularly called a 'Designer Breed'.

I decided to breed Dixie this month so that she will have early Spring puppies, rather than waiting 6 mths for Winter puppies.  This is the first time I have not skipped a cycle in breeding, but all was well with her last birth, she is in good health, she is still young and the timing would be better for the puppies this time around.  I chose to breed Schnoodles because they are great family dogs, good for allergies and in high demand  in the current market.
