In Memory

I thought about removing this page because its rather painful to me to see it every time I log onto my own website or my blog. But, recently someone accused me of doing that so I wouldn't have to field questions about what happened to the dogs memorialized here. While I put lots of information out there via my blog when something happens to one of my dogs/puppies, I certainly don't want people to think evil of me if I remove the In Memory page. So, I've decided to keep it here after all. In fact, I've added information about the dogs on their own pages in an effort to continue to educate people who either have or are considering acquiring a standard poodle. People need to know what health issues are in this breed OR DO NOT GET ONE because no matter how well-bred a standard poodle is, it is a living creature and there is still the genetic gamble of things happening. You won't find this kind of information on very many breeder's website though. Some people believe breeders who say they never have health problems but I'd rather you know and understand what can happen no matter what. And while I cannot eliminate health risks, please read more about what I do to minimize health risks on the "About Us" page on this website.
