Standard Poodle Puppy Application


I have owned Standard Poodles since 1967.
Owning, loving and working Standard Poodles is my Passion



After I receive your application I review it.
At that time if I have any questions or concerns I email you for clarification.
If you are "approved" then I will either let you know what month to get back in touch with me
OR I will ask for a deposit for you to secure a spot on our waiting list.

If you are NOT approved, I will reply to you and let you know and
have some suggestions for alternate breeds or perhaps just even a way to better prepare yourself
for a dog or puppy later down the road.
Please keep in mind that I ONLY have our puppies best interest in mind
and of course I want you to be happy with your puppy as well.
I will not push a puppy onto you,
if I feel that you will not be a good match for one of our pups,
or we feel we do not have what you want.

We expect that everyone that is filling out our Application
and especially those that send us a deposit
have fully read our Purchase Agreement
and Steps in Purchasing

11.     Do you have the patience to go through the trials and tribulations of puppy hood which can last up to 18 months of age
(please take a minute to read this web page: Problems with a New Puppy) Puppies do not come trained.
You will have to teach them to be content in a cage and
YOU, YES, YOU, WILL HAVE TO TEACH THEM NOT TO NIP AND JUMP ON YOU .
such behaviour is NORMAL for puppy to try.
You are expected to physcially correct, undesired behaviour.
If you are not able to, or do not have the skills to correct an 8 lbs puppy from doing this,
please consider a Toy dog breed, OR plan on what obedience school you will be using.
Dogs doing undesired behaviour is a PEOPLE problem, not a puppy problem.

Your puppy may be spayed/neutered prior to leaving my home to ensure this.
By placing a $200.00 non-refundable deposit, you are agreeing to these terms.
If you are searching for a puppy with ability to breed, or breeding rights or "unlimited" registration
I will not have that for you, unless you are willing to AKC show your puppy to Championship Title
and puppy would be sold on a co-ownership until terms are met.


15.      On average how many hours will puppy be left alone during the day?
Please note that if left loose, a puppy WILL pee inside, every 20 minutes - YES THEY WILL !!
If confined in an appropriate sized cage: at 6 weeks,

Pet Transporter within Canada may be around $800.00
If you are not able to pick up your puppy
at our home near Niagara Falls


USA
2020-2023 Lockdowns have changed a lot of transportation options.
Prior to this and for over 30 years I was able to send my pups across North America
Since the lockdowns USA people will need
to arrange to pick up your puppy in person at my home.
I may be able to arrange to meet you in New York, but would not be my preference.

As of 2024
Citizens of the U.S. who are members of the NEXUS program
may present their membership card as proof of identification
and as a document that denotes citizenship, when arriving by air
(when coming from the U.S.), or land, or marine modes.

Americans with an Enhanced Identification Card (EIC) or Enhanced Drivers License (EDL)
from Washington State, Minnesota, South Dakota, Michigan, New York, or Vermont
can be allowed to travel to Canada without a Passport.
Enhanced Driver's Licenses are only valid for land and marine crossings.

As an example, I have had people from Miami choose to fly into BUF airport, rent a car and
(drive the 1.5 hours from there to my home).
Pick up their puppy and return with puppy, as a flight carry on
all for under $300 booking Frontier Airlines
(www.flyfrontier.com) directly from their website.
Frontier charges $99 to carry the pet in the cabin.
Wait times at the NY border, have been 10-15 minutes.
Others have chosen to fly into Detroit and drive the 3 hours to my home
Flying home with puppy as a carry on and or driving home with puppy.

Those planning on coming to my home crossing Niagara Falls I really do
encourage you to do some site seeing on the Canadian side, if you have never been to Niagara Falls.
There is helicopter rides and in summer a ride on the Maid of the Mist is suprisingly enjoyable.
AND there are places to see such as the Wax Museums, Butterfly Conservatory and Bird Kingdom
Of course Niagara Falls Region is famous for its many wineries and tours
