We first fell in love with the Standard Poodle 20+ years ago. I was raised with many different breeds from my dad's hunting dogs to the dogs our parents let each of us 5 kids have. My husband, Brian, was not so lucky due to his allergies. When we were married and our kids came along, I wanted them to know the love of a dog. Brian is also a hunter so he wanted a retriever. I wanted a dog that could be in our home, not a back yard dog, due to his and our son Logan's allergies. I began the search for the dog that would meet both of our needs. I found the Standard Poodle. Storm was our first Standard. He was an amazing poodle. I was able to train Storm to be Brian's retriever. Since Storm intered our lives we have added more and more Strandard Poodles to our live.
