Ghibli Poodles does only one breeding at a time.
We feel it is important to give each litter and all the puppies in it as much time, attention, socialization and training as we possibly can. Implementing Puppy Culture protocols is a time consuming practice and I want each puppy, each litter to get my absolute best. In addition, this ensures each mama is getting the utmost care, my 24/7 support and undivided attention.
I strive for excellence with every litter I produce.



At Ghibli, our goal has always been to breed Small Standards with the eventual goal of producing a consistent Poodle about 20 inches tall and 30 lbs, and our next several planned breedings are pushing us closer to that goal!

These breeding plans are all tentative that each girl spaces out her heat cycles far enough apart from the other. In the event that a girl comes into season that would cause too much overlap (more than likely), she will be skipped that heat cycle and pushed to the next. I do need to see enough interest in a litter to do the pairing, so dependent on demand.

SMALL STANDARDS COMING SOON!

Upcoming 2025 Planned Litters

*Subject to Change


2025 Breeding - Next Heat Expected Jan for a Spring Litter

Boomer's sire was a 18 inch Medium import. Meadow is a small Standard - her mother is 23" and 45 lbs and her sire was 24" and 47 lbs. We will see a range of sizes in this litter from 25 lbs to 45 lbs at maturity. Boomer is a working therapy dog and when not working a easy going guy.  Meadow is a sweet, social butterfly that is very playful. Meadow has an offswitch but really likes to be on the go with her person. We are expecting show, performance or active pets with plenty of aptitude for therapy work or service work.

Next Heat Expected Summer 2025 for Fall 2025 Litter 

We are very excited to be using our very own bred by boy Blue for Clover's second litter. His dam Seairsha is a very beloved part of our breeding program that we did not get a keeper girl from, so we have high hopes for a beautiful girl that has Seairsha's (and Blue's) gentle, sweet nature. We will see a range of sizes in this litter from 30 lbs to 45 lbs at maturity. Blue is a special boy to his co-owner Claire and has been hard at work developing a solid foundation in many sports and just recently started his journey toward collecting his Alphabet soup. Clover is a sweet, calm girl with biddable temperament but mostly enjoys looking pretty, napping on the sofa. We are expecting great family pets, show prospects, and possibly therapy and service dog prospects.

Ghibli's Puppy Raising Protocol 

Ghibli Poodles utilizes Puppy Culture, aspects of Avidog, and my own experience as a dog trainer to choose how we raise our puppies! Every litter matures and develops at their own pace, but generally this is a general overlook of what you can expect a Ghibli Puppy to be raised like. For video examples of how I raise my litters, visit my Business facebook page and click on Albums - each litter has their own album. I try very hard to take pictures and videos at least once a week, if not daily of the puppies and their puppy rearing.
