ABOUT US
Hello! My name is Olena and I am a breeder/owner/handler and groomer in my own small and loving furry family that is located in central Louisiana.
If you are searching for a stunning, well-bred toy poodle, you’ve come to the right place! I am deeply passionate about this extraordinary breed and have dedicated years to studying their standards, anatomy, genetics, temperament, personality, and pedigree lines. My goal is to create elegant, unique, and healthy dogs that excel both as stars in the show ring and as beloved companions in family homes.

My diverse background has played a significant role in raising and showcasing my poodles to the highest standards.

The dogs in my program are AKC Grand Champions (GCH) and Champions (CH), earning recognition and admiration from esteemed judges across the United States and around the world. They’ve secured first-place wins at major shows nationwide, are OFA health tested, and continue to win titles worldwide with their new owners. I remain active within the poodle community, maintaining close connections with renowned kennels to uphold the highest standards in the breed.
Through my special care and dedication, the dogs I raise are consistently friendly, well-socialized, and comfortable around anyone they meet. All of our puppies are house-raised, ensuring they develop wonderful temperaments and thrive as loving companions.
OUR STORY
It Was Love at First Touch

I used to be skeptical of the Poodle breed and never really paid them much attention. However, everything changed the moment I held my friend’s brand-new toy poodle puppy. That fluffy little creature felt magical in my arms, with its impossibly soft and silky coat. I couldn’t stop running my fingers through its hair – it was like a form of meditation. In that moment, my heart melted, and I knew my next dog would be a toy poodle.

My passion for dogs started long before this encounter. My first dog was a working Rottweiler female, Fredda Fon Valenchtein, imported from Germany in 1990, at a time when Rottweilers were rare in Ukraine. Fredda and I achieved a lot together: high-level obedience and protection training, numerous conformation wins, and successful offspring who earned championship titles. My focus was always on intelligence, trainability, human orientation, and strong, healthy anatomy. Never did I think that a decorative breed like the Toy Poodle could capture my heart – but Trutti changed everything.

When I decided to find my first poodle puppy, I knew I wanted a show-quality dog: a classic black coat, champion parents, and an impeccable pedigree. My search spanned eight long months, reaching across dog clubs and breeders worldwide. Finally, I saw a video of a stunning black puppy running after her owner. Something clicked. I immediately contacted the breeder, and that’s how Trutti, my first poodle and the foundation of my kennel, came into my life.

At the time, I was living in Ukraine. When Trutti was seven months old, we moved to the United States. Adjusting to the American Kennel Club’s rules and standards was challenging, especially as I was still learning English, but I was determined to show my incredible dog. Trutti began her show career at two years old, and although our first show didn’t result in a win, it marked the start of an incredible career.

I poured my heart and soul into learning every aspect of the breed. I mastered grooming, handling, and the art of presentation, investing in equipment and building strong relationships with professional handlers and breeders. Trutti and I worked tirelessly and she earned her Champion and Grand Champion titles. This remarkable achievement laid the foundation for my kennel and inspired me to continue striving for excellence.

Today, our kennel is home to over 30 champions. Our dogs are prizewinners and champions at the most prestigious shows, and we collaborate with top breeders in the United States and Europe. We take immense pride in producing not only successful show dogs but also top-quality breeding dogs whose offspring go on to achieve remarkable show careers of their own.

For families who aren’t interested in a show career but simply want a loving companion, our kennel also offers wonderful pet-quality puppies. These puppies are raised with the same care and attention as our show prospects and will grow up to be delightful, loyal members of any family. Whether as a show star or a cherished pet, our puppies bring endless joy to their owners, creating lifelong bonds and happy memories.

What sets our kennel apart is our commitment to the Toy Poodle’s elegance, intelligence, and temperament. Each dog in our program is raised with love, care, and attention to detail, ensuring they are not only exceptional show dogs but also beloved companions. From that magical “love at first touch” moment to the achievements of today, this journey has been nothing short of extraordinary.
