I'm the breeder behind Karadale Poodles located in Florida. Karadale Poodles has bred/owned over 100 AKC champions and also performance titles. We have bred a family of dogs for over 30 years with health testing for many generations behind our dogs. Temperament and health are the most important to us but brains and beauty are too!
About Karin
I have been involved in showing dogs since I was nine years old. I love showing the dogs, but I enjoy them mostly as my pets.
What makes Karin’s program special
We have been doing genetic testing on all dogs that are bred from for many years. We have 10 generations of champion Poodles with health testing. You can go on OFA and see the many pages of health testing that has been done. We have also bred many Poodle Club of America National winners. But the health and the temperament are the most important.

Karin has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies. You'll also have the chance to share a bit about yourself and what you're looking for in a new companion. Together, you'll choose the puppy that's right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.

“All puppies are sold on a limited registration and are not to be bred from. You must also sign a contract that states that they are not to be bred from and you will receive your AKC papers after the puppy has been spayed/neutered. We also take back any of our dogs for any reason for the lifetime of the dog. . If for some reason you do not like the puppy after seeing it then the deposit would be returned. You also have 10 days to take the puppy to the vet and you can also return it at that time for a full refund minus the health certificate cost. If you change your mind before acquiring your puppy the deposit would then not be refunded.”
Karin may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Karin offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out to Karin directly.
My puppies are raised and trained in my home. I put a lot of time into socializing them so they can adapt easily to their new homes. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Outdoors, e.g. rain, car riding , Various Surfaces , Noises , Household Desensitization, and Potty Training.
All puppies are vaccinated and vet checked and leave with a Florida Health certificate. .
We send our puppies home with Food Starter Bag, Puppy Collar, Vaccinations, and Microchip.
Karin offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
“We do not ship our puppies. I can meet you at the airport or you can come to meet me. ”
