I'm the breeder behind Windsor Poodles located in Dubuque, IA. We are passionate about Poodles and look forward to sharing the breed with others who love it just as much as we do! We strive to produce healthy, loving dogs that will excel in their forever homes. Our puppies are lovingly raised in our home as part of our family so that we can prepare them to be wonderful additions to yours.
About Holly
We are very proud to be breeding these incredible dogs. It is important to us that we are breeding versatile, well-rounded, socialized, and healthy pups for our buyers to welcome into their homes and hearts. Our dogs are a huge part of our lives, and we enjoy spending time with them; whether that be through completing our various day-to-day activities together or just cuddling up at night.
What makes Holly’s program special
Our program is special because of our dogs. Poodles are such a joy, and we find so much fulfillment in raising and preparing them for their loving, forever homes. We are very dedicated to what we do and what we are trying to achieve as breeders. We are passionate about our dogs and puppies, and our love for this breed shines through in every aspect of our breeding program.
Holly 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.
Puppy prices range from $1,000 - $3,200 and include a non-refundable deposit of $200.
“Deposit is non refundable if we have what buyer chooses but decides not to purchase. This deposit will be transferred to our next litter.”
Holly 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 Holly 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 Holly directly.
We do our best to begin training our puppies to prepare them for success in their new homes. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Puppy Culture, Basic Manners, Crate Training, House Training, Surface and Tactile Stimulation, Noise Desensitization, Household Desensitization, and Socialized with People of Various Appearances.
We ensure all of our puppies are healthy before going to their new homes.
Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates. While Windsor 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.
Holly 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.
Why Holly started breeding
My first Poodle, Missie, was the start for me. Nobody wanted her because she wasn't a very cute puppy, but I loved her and wanted to give her the best life. She grew into herself and became an absolutely beautiful dog, and it turned out her mother was a UKC champion. It was through her that I fell in love with the Poodle breed and decided to start my breeding program.
