Toy Poodles of the Central Coast, NSW, our dedicated Toy Poodle breeding program is committed to producing healthy, happy, and well-socialised puppies that make perfect companions for families and individuals alike. With a deep passion for the Toy Poodle breed, we prioritise the health and well-being of our dogs above all else. Our breeding practices focus on genetic integrity and temperament, ensuring that every puppy is a reflection of the exceptional standards we uphold.
What sort of enrichment activities do your animals and litters have?
Enrichment activities for our dogs and litters play a crucial role in their overall well-being, mental stimulation, and social development. We engage them in a variety of activities designed to cater to their physical and cognitive needs. One of our favourites is interactive playtime with toys that challenge their problem-solving skills, such as puzzle feeders and treat-dispensing balls. These toys not only keep them entertained but also encourage them to think critically. Additionally, we incorporate outdoor adventures that involve scent trails and obstacle courses, allowing them to explore their environment while honing their natural instincts. Regular socialisation sessions with other dogs and people help develop their interpersonal skills and confidence. We also dedicate time to training exercises that reinforce good behaviour and strengthen the bond between us and our dogs. The combination of these enrichment activities ensures that our furry companions remain happy, healthy, and well-rounded individuals, ready to tackle new challenges with enthusiasm.
How do you socialise your animals?
Socialising puppies is a crucial aspect of their development that sets the foundation for their behaviour and temperament as adult dogs. Proper socialisation involves exposing puppies to a variety of activities, children, and other animals in a positive and controlled manner. We introduce puppies to different surfaces, sounds, and smells, gradually increasing the complexity of stimuli to avoid overwhelming them.
What health checks have you undertaken on your breeding animals and your litters?
In our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of health and well-being for our breeding animals and their litters, we undertake a comprehensive series of health checks and procedures. Initially, we conduct DNA testing on all our breeding dogs to ensure they are free from hereditary diseases and to uphold the integrity of the breed. Each dog also undergoes thorough veterinary examinations to assess their overall health and to identify any underlying issues that could affect their ability to breed or care for their puppies. Vaccinations are diligently administered to protect both the parents and the puppies from common infectious diseases, while regular worming treatments ensure that all our animals remain free from internal parasites. Additionally, we microchip each puppy at a young age, which aids in their identification and ensures their safety in the event they become lost. These measures collectively contribute to producing healthy, robust litters and promote responsible breeding practices.
What comes with your take home packs for your litters?
When you welcome one of my puppies into your home, each take-home pack is carefully curated to ensure a smooth transition and a happy start to your new journey together.
