Tiny toy, toy, miniature typically red, apricot, cream, silver, white and black poodle puppies for sale in Central Illinois (within driving distance of Chicago or St. Louis).
I am a public intermediate school principal who along with my family and friends raise our dogs and puppies. The raising of my adult dogs and the care of their puppies is part of our children's schooling and responsibility. There are just a few dogs that are bred as a side hobby and ministry! We have just a few litters each year.
Our mission is two fold: Improve the poodle bred by genetically testing our adult dogs and educating the people who obtain a puppy or dog from us. Secondly to have this ministry be a blessing for others. Each year over $5,000 is given to missionaries and our church. In 2010 three puppies and one adult dog were given away to Central Illinois families in need including one puppy to a non profit organization that places service dogs with disabled people. In 2011 more dogs were given away. See our testimonials page for more details.
None of the poodles or their puppies are kept in kennels, but raised with lots of TLC right along side family and friends. All of the adult male sires have had their patellas (knee), hips, eyes (CERF), PRCD, heart, thyroid, Von Willebrand, Legges Perthes tested with certificates documenting the results and most of the adult female dams have been genetically tested for heart, eye (CERF), PRCD, Von Willebrand, knee (patellas) defects, and many other genetic defects. There are certificates registered with OFA, Ingen and CERF. What this guarantees buyers of these puppies is that there is a significantly less possibility that there will be genetic defects to puppies they are buying. Unless otherwise stated, all poodles puppies that are for sale come with one year health guarantee!
In February 2010 we donated a puppy to the non for profit group PawsGivingIndependence. This puppy will go through several months of training before it will be placed as a service dog in a home for a person who has a disability/disabilities. Read on our testimonial page for an e-mail we received from the co-founder of this non for profit group.
Another puppy was donated to a relative of a neighbor whose dog we found dead after it was hit by a car.
