About Us
At River Park Poodles we take our responsibilities very seriously and strive at breeding for health and temperament. All of our Dams and Studs are health tested through Embark and all our poodles are AKC registered. All our puppies come with a one year health guarantee from genetic conditions the parents have been tested for.
We raise our puppies with the goal of placing them in loving pet homes and as SD prospects in suitable service dog homes.
We start ENS training with our puppies at a young age. This helps them build a robust immune system and improves their stress responses later in life.
We also incorporate a combination of ESI training and scent imprinting. This enhances their ability to identify and react to scents.
We access each puppy individually and find that many of them have the right aptitude to be service dog prospects.
They will have a great head start in life at being potential future candidates for therapy and service dog work, including becoming future SSIGDOGs for children and adults with ASD, PTSD service dogs, diabetic alert service dogs, and more. Contact us to see if our puppies fit the criteria for your unique set of needs.
Raising puppies is definitely a labor of love and one of the best moments for us is to witness the joy and love our puppies bring to their new families. We Love staying in touch with our poodle families, and enjoy getting updates of our puppies living their best lives in their forever homes!
