Emily C.

Certified Breeder of Poodles

Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Setting the Standard Poodles located in Cottonwood Heights, UT. We raise our dogs with love in our home. We have high expectations for our pups and strive to pair each one with a loving family. We are a small family run Standard Poodle Breeding Program. We believe in the utmost care for our fur babies. We do not dock tails or remove dew claws. We do smother them with love and do our absolute best to ensure they have the best start to life.
