Above — Walking Danté at ten weeks

Puppy Update!

Dogmatique's summer 2010 litter (from our dogs Danté and Gwyn) is here! From a healthy, happy litter of ten, we still have pups available and ready to go to their new homes now. Our family-raised puppies are vet checked, microchipped, and will have had their first vaccinations. They are registered with the Canadian Kennel Club and have a lifetime of support from Dogmatique.

Please drop us a line or call us at 250-832-8032 for more information.

NEW — Puppy Blog!

For this new litter, we will be posting pictures and information detailing the development of the pups and our approach to raising them. Please check it out!

By the time puppies are ready to go from our home to yours, they'll have been completely weaned and will have had their first vaccinations (with clear instructions for the follow-up appointments you'll be making). They'll be well-socialized and will be starting to get comfortable with being groomed, as well as having been exposed to beginning commands ('sit', 'down', 'stand', and so forth) with treat reinforcement and reward. You'll get a full pedigree and all the puppy's paperwork, as well as copies of the health testing information (OFA for hip dysplasia; CERF for eyes; Histovet for sebaceous adenitis, a skin condition; and von Willebrand's disease, a blood disorder) of the puppy's parents and grandparents (where applicable).

Puppies are left with their tails undocked, and are available as pets and companions with a requirement to spay or neuter by six months of age. Our poodles are health-guaranteed purebred stock (Canadian Kennel Club registration, vaccinated, dewormed, vet checked and microchipped). Their parents (and grandparents) are health-tested and available for viewing anytime.

If you're interested in reserving a standard poodle from Dogmatique, or would just like more information, first check out our 'Choosing a Poodle' page, then drop us a line at info@dogmatique.com or give us a call at 250-832-8032.

Before you do, though (and as you think about what questions you'd like to ask us), please take a few moments to think about a few questions we'd like to ask you as a means to understanding your needs and expectations.

  • Why are you looking for a puppy?
  • Which members of your family were involved in making the decision, and how are they looking forward to it?
  • What is it that made you consider a standard poodle?
  • What kinds of dogs have you owned or cared for before?
  • What kind of home do you have? House or apartment? Urban or rural? Fenced yard or not?
  • Do you have any children? If so, how old are they?
