What's included

Enrichment and socialization

We play and interact with the puppies every day. By the time they're 1 month old they've had their first bath. After that, they get a bath and are groomed every 2 weeks - this gets them used to the grooming routine. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Socialized with Adult Dogs, Socialized with Other Animals, Grooming Desensitization, Sound Stimulation, and Touch Desensitization.

Puppy health practices

All puppies are vaccinated, dewormed, given a fecal test, and seen by a licensed veterinarian before going to their new homes.

Extras

Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates. While DuBois Standard Poodles hasn’t shared specifics yet, we encourage you to reach out directly to learn what thoughtful extras they may include to help your puppy transition comfortably into their new home.

Bringing your puppy home

Tari offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.

Parent health testing

Breeder-Reported Testing

Good level

DuBois Standard Poodles reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Standard Poodles.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Dentition

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

  • Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), Neonatal Encephalopathy with Seizures (NEwS), von Willebrand Disease I (vWD I)

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
