I have owned Standard poodles
for 9 years and have been conformation showing for nearly 7 years.
In that time, I have handled 7 Standards and 1 Miniature to
their Champion titles. Of these, three were my own prefix, one going
on to his Grand Champion title. Capanash poodles also compete
successfully in obedience (mostly with Marlene handling).
I have been involved with Poodle Club Of Victoria committee for the
last 6 years (Vice president, committee, puppy officer, webmaster,
point score secretary). During the week, I am a secondary Science/Maths
teacher. Having a Bachelor of Science degree has re-enforced
the need for health testing when breeding, with health and good
temperament being of the utmost importance.
We believe in letting poodles be dogs so none of
ours are kennelled and all sleep in the house. They are also allowed
to run and play together (yes even the show dogs!). We have just
bought an 85 acre property that the poodles will have a great time
exploring.
