ABOUT
US
Durango Poodles is located about 10 miles west of Durango on a 32 acre property we call "Clydius Acres." We named it after our first poodle, Clyde. It's truly a dog paradise, with a forest of Ponderosa pines for our dogs to run and play in. You are welcome to visit any time!
​
Our Philosophy:
​
While our poodles are likely to be show-quality, our main focus is on health, temperament, and companionship. Our goal is to give you a best friend for life. For that reason, we do not crop tails or remove dew claws. We think your puppy is perfect just the way he is.
​
Our poodles are bred with love. Your puppy will be born in our home and will enjoy plenty of sunshine and fresh mountain air every day!
​
Because our focus is primarily on breeding excellent family pets, we do extensive socialization with our puppies. We use a program called Puppy Culture to create confident, happy pups who love to learn. Your puppy will have plenty of interaction with children and will be exposed to a variety of sights, sounds, and smells in his first 8 weeks with us, so he is sure to be a confident well-adjusted dog.
​
Your puppy is truly a part of our family until you take him home. We believe that breeding dogs is all about building relationships. We consider ourselves to be a "forever" breeder. We hope that you stay in touch for years after you take your puppy home. You can always call us with questions about training, grooming, or health.
