So RED HOT, they melt your heart
Cinnfully Sweet Standard Poodles
Welcome to the home of Cinnfully Sweet Standard Poodles.
We are a small breeder, located in the gold country of Northern California, a short drive from beautiful San Francisco and Lake Tahoe. We breed and raise red standard poodles.
Our focus is on health and companionship, with the goal to improve the breed, but also to breed sweet pups with temperaments calm enough and suitable for both service or therapy dog certification. We try to do this through health testing and obtaining titles on our breeding pairs, early extensive socialization of our puppies using *puppy culture guidelines.
Our puppies are born in our home, in a dedicated puppy room (which by the way is right off our great room and kitchen, in the heart of the our home). We are there every step of the way, from whelping to getting ready to their forever homes. When the puppies are old enough, they are exposed to all the sights, smells, and sounds that are needed to properly socialize a puppy.
One of our goals is for each and every puppy to meet a plethora of people, from young children to older individuals.
Our research has brought us to the realization that over vaccination and early spay and neuter could be shortening the lives of our beloved poodles. Therefore we encourage a minimal vaccine protocol and do not encourage spay and neuter until after our beautiful puppies are fully grown.
We hope you enjoy exploring our web pages and drop downs that follow, and as your can tell we are transparent in every aspect of our raising and socialization of these precious beings. Through pictures, videos, and our 'closed' 'private' FB group, where we post at least on video a day, each and every day of our puppies lives here at our poodle ranch, you can see how our puppies are interacted with, and getting the best start in life possible. With personal visits (after we have carefully screened you to assure our puppies safety) you can fully see each and every aspect of our breeding program.
Now how many breeders can say that.
Red Standard
Poodle History
Where it all began
Now for a wee bit of "red" standard poodle history.
Before 1980 there were no red standard poodles. Yes there were reds in the miniature and toy varieties, but not the standard size. In the standards there were Apricots. I was not there but I have spoken to Ester (minarets poodles, good friend of Janet Blannin, who was *Palmares poodles) and the history I have researched from poodle pedigree and hearing from other breeders is that Palmares and Shanghai La thought that Red would be a great addition to the standard poodle color selection.
First and foremost I must mention that my wonderful matriarch Larue, was a short 7 generations away from what some consider the beginning of the red standard poodles, and she owes much of her beauty, especially her long stunning poodle face, to Janet Blannin who bred Larue's mother Paris and the generations behind her all the way back to "Rusty" AKA Palmares E Pluribus Unum, the red male miniature poodle who brought the wonderful RED color to the standard poodle. I feel Janet made the greatest impact on the red standard poodles as we know them today.
Following are a few kennels that have made a mark on the red standard poodle.
Palmares Kennel. Janet Blannin sho was Key in the development of the red color in standards, passed away 02-15-2016. Although the Palmares name lives on.
Shangri-la kennel. Ilse Kong passed away in 2005
Majestic Kennel. Joan Mistkowski passed in 2009.
Minarets poodles. Ester Underkofler still breeds, shows, and titles her poodles in, among other things, agility and obedience, proving that standards are more than just pretty faces.
Leatherstocking kennel. Barbara and Stratford Deitch were successful in breeding top show quality standard poodles as well as therapy dogs.
At this time there are many breeders trying to breed red standards that are both conformationally sound enough to show, sweet enough to be therapy dogs, and smart enough to be hunters.
I would like to think that my small kennel will do all that and more.
These pups are handled with love, exposed to family life, know what it’s like to be ‘clean’ even while still in the whelping box, fed super foods, touched with care and gentleness.
