My name is Carol Brand.  I am a member of the Columbine State Poodle Club and I've been actively showing, training and breeding Standard Poodles since 2001.   I love Standard Poodles because they are smart, athletic dogs who are happiest working for and with their people.   Recently, I've moved into breeding Miniature Poodles.  Minis are a great option for active, outdoorsy families who would like a smaller dog.  

I believe that breeders should prove their breeding stock before they put their dogs back into the gene pool and I work hard to put titles on "both ends" of my Poodles.     My breeding dogs are fully health tested, AKC Champions and they all have some sort of Obedience title.   Over the years, I've leaned a lot about Poodle specific issues.  If you ever have any questions about training, grooming, or health related issues in Poodles, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Other than that, what I enjoy most is getting outside with my dogs.   On any given day, you can find us on one of the trails around Boulder or maybe out and about town.  If you see us... stop and say HI!
