I'm the breeder behind Lovely Little Poodles located in Knoxville, TN. We are very selective, only breeding genetically health tested fully clear dogs with great personalities. Our poodles live in our home with us as family first and foremost. We also provide two year guarantees on our dogs and have our vet certify each dog as healthy before they go to their homes.
Q. & A. with Christina
Why did you start breeding?
Over half a decade ago we stumbled into dog rearing by chance. We had many years of animal husbandry experience but decided to have our own litter of pups between our two happy & healthy doggies. We had one litter and were blown away by the positive responses regarding our babies personalities. We pledged after that to keep helping families find wonderful companions to bring joy to their lives.
What makes your program special?
We raise all our dogs and puppies in our house with us as family, teaching them essential skills like litter box training and socialization skills. They all come with a two year guarantee as well as a 3 day health guarantee. Vet certified and from parents that are clear of any diseases through genetic testing.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include apricot, cream, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
