-UPDATED NOVEMBER 2024-
AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION SOON…
Say hello to “Vinny”, a parti Standard Poodle who comes from a good family that would like us to find a loving home where he would receive more time and attention.
This gentle, loving, easy going, cream puff Poodle boy has been neutered, is a healthy 73 pounds, stands at 26″ tall and is just 7 years old (09/13/2026).
Vinny is a “Velcro” Poodles who REALLY loves men and has quickly attached himself to my husband, Mike. He will follow us around the house, will play fetch with any ball you throw, loves to go for our 2 mile walks and will sit nicely in the car while going for a ride with you. If your hand is by your side, he will muzzle it up so you will pet him as he thrives for attention.
While Vinny is just fine with all our other Poodles, he is not looking for another dog friend. He craves and wants attention from people. Do you see how he looks at Mike in the picture?
Vinny will be a perfect companion for someone who is retired or home most of the time. This big boy is also a perfect gentleman in our home (housetrained).
More information will be posted as soon as all his Vet work is completed. Only then will we begin to accept your Adoption Application. Thank you for your patience.

“TUCKER” came to us in April from a western Minnesota breeder who was retiring and wanted the best home for her Tucker.
He is a creamy white, soft, gentle and easy going AKC Standard Poodle. At 9 years old (June 23, 2015), he weighs a healthy 63 pounds and measures 25″ from the floor to his withers.
WE ARE VERY SAD TO REPORT that Tucker’s adoption has been placed on a hold. While we were outside, Tucker and the other Poodles were running, jumping and playing. Suddenly we heard Tucker give out a loud “YIP!!” and clearly saw him limping.
The other Poodles wouldn’t tell us what happened. But some squirrels were chattering about how Tucker was chasing them, and he took a quick turn to the right.
Not sure if the squirrels were telling us the truth, so we quickly got Tucker into our Vet where X-rays were taken. We then learned that he had torn (ruptured) his right rear leg “Cruciate Ligament”. Humans have a similar experience, but it’s called a torn “ACL”. Maybe the squirrels were correct?
Well, a Specialist was called in and a surgery was done to fix his torn ACL and meniscus. This surgery is very expensive (thousands), but Tucker was in pain, and he needed our help.
And for those of you who asked or questioned our decision: We will not euthanize any Poodle when a highly successful surgery is available!
After the surgery, Tucker had his own living space in our entry way to limit his access to steps. He really missed going for walks, playing outside and going to the grandchildren’s baseball games.
Tucker will be with us a bit longer while he rests, heals and receives physical therapy.
UPDATE: Tucker has recovered from his surgery with no problems. He enjoys going for a daily 2 mile walk with Mike, Lola and Bluey, has full access to our entire home even at night and when we are gone and just loves people greeting people who come to visit.
Tucker’s last x-ray to check the surgery on his leg is November 27th. He will enjoy Thanksgiving with us and then will be available for adoption in December.
And yes, if you can help Tucker, we are accepting donations to help pay for his surgery. Thank you.
