• Our experience with Anna was lovely from start to finish. Our puppy Max (now 9 months old teenager) is exactly the dog we wanted. We explained to Anna that we are looking for a younger brother for our Toy poodle so he needed to be of gentle nature. We came to meet him when he was only 4 weeks old and whilst we were waiting for him to be old enough to come home with us, we received pictures and videos. We kept in touch with Anna throughout this time. When we finally picked him up, we were given a full folder of documents and other very useful information to help us take good care of Max. Max is wonderfully crazy outside but calm and funny at home. He’s very smart but then hey he’s a poodle so no surprises there 😍. If you are looking to get a standard poodle puppy from a responsible breeder then you’re safe in Anna’s hands. Few pictures of Max for tax, we love him 🐩

  • We have always been dog owners have had many dogs over the years from Border Terriers to Red Setters and Tibetan Spaniels. We have always loved the idea of a Standard Poodle and Ruby came at the exact right time in our life. She is incredible in every way in terms of temperament and breeding, more importantly she had been very well socialised by Anna. Anna had followed Puppy Culture even to the extreme of wearing a hat one day to get the puppies used to everything. Ruby slept through the night on the first night in our bedroom and was also completely toilet trained. Of course all puppies need a lot of attention from a new owner for the first six months one cannot deny one needs to put a lot of effort in but Anna put all the effort in for us to make it very smooth running indeed. Ruby is only 7 months now and is a brilliant dog she is loving, sweet natured, well trained and highly sociable plus also brilliant with children again thanks to Annas strategy for breeding and caring for the puppies before they come to their first homes. You will be very pleased with any puppy from Mango or Italia and Henry is adorable. She has a gorgeous family of poodles Enjoy! Can’t imagine life without Ruby – or Anna!!!!

  • From the beginning of our experience with Anna to the end, I cannot speak highly enough of her as a breeder. Before we met the puppies we had a long conversation to establish our requirements and situation and on our first visit were able to meet and spend time with the parents. Henry and Mango are such clearly happy, well natured dogs that our children decided they wanted to take them home instead of a puppy! Having met and spent time with our puppy (Otto), we were kept constantly informed about his progress via WhatsApp messages and photos which also showed us just how thoroughly Anna was providing age appropriate socialisation for the puppies from meeting a range of people to experiencing household noises and grooming. This, along with the detailed information and advice given by Anna ensured that Otto’s first days and weeks at home were smooth and he settled in very quickly. All of the above are things you would hope to find in any really high quality breeder but the thing which really set Anna apart was how well she knew the puppies’ personalities as this allowed her to match them very carefully to the best home for them. Our puppy needed to be able to cope with a busy family home but also be happy with time alone so Anna matched us with a beautifully confident, friendly but independent pup who has slotted perfectly into our lifestyle. Can’t wait to follow the next litter on instagram!

  • When I saw Anna’s videos of her puppies I was so excited. Their playground and parents were so super . I wondered if I could be as good a parent . Anyway, she took care of Henry until he was allowed to fly to South Africa . He arrived totally happy and healthy ⭐️. He is now 8 months old and still adorable. He is so well adjusted thanks to Anna. The teenage phase is hard going he still has to learn when to stop! He plays happily with large and small dogs, they all love him. He now goes in the mountain river to chase ducks! I can’t wait to get a sister for him. A smart and gentle boy. Such a joy! Thank you Anna

  • Anna welcomed us with open arms and understood our worries about allergies to dogs. She let us visit and take our time with the litters and parents to feel if we could tolerate poodles. She gave us a lot of information beforehand and held our hand through the process and facilitated answers to every question. Anna was a huge support to us as beginner puppy owners and was always available to answer questions about puppy behaviour and gave a lot of tips and tricks to navigate the first few months. A true puppy owner coach and we feel that we can still message her with questions and updates and she is always there with her support. We truly recommend Anna as a breeder. She put the puppies and their parents first and makes sure she matches her puppies to the right people.

  • Sulley is a confident pup whose bubbly personality and brings us joy everyday. We bought home a puppy who was able to take everything in his stride as Anna gave him the best start possible with everything from household socialisation to grooming desensitisation. Sulley has a wonderful temperament and we get compliments on his behaviour and looks wherever we go! Anna has been so supportive since we first enquired when the puppies were two weeks old and answered all our enquiries. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience or puppy!

  • Townedale Stud have been so helpful with everything “puppies”. Tally is a wonderful dog with an easy going temperament. She is friendly to both people and dogs. She loves going to my grandchildren’s matches where many,many!,children come and stroke her, and if I say so myself, she really is very beautiful. If I was thinking of getting another dog, I would definitely go back to Anna.

  • Where do I start? These two young girls are just fabulous! They are just the loveliest addition to our family. So intelligent, with well-balanced personalities, they are confident, eager to please, so easy to train and just a pleasure to work with and be around. They are beautiful looking, with their gorgeous coats and I can’t wait to experiment with different hairstyles! Anna and her son did such a fabulous job of raising them and I believe it was her carefully selected breeding, along with the loving home environment they were raised in, that has created such special, sweet natured creatures! As far as customer service goes – nothing was too much trouble for Anna. She kept in regular contact – offered photos and video updates without me having to ask and answered my many questions with useful information and references. We could talk about colour and genetics all day long! Her assured breeder programme really does set her apart from many out there and these girls were so well socialised as a result of this. They had seen the groomer two or three times before they came to me and their professional photoshoot was divine. I would not hesitate to recommend Anna, her son and their fabulous poodles to anyone thinking of buying from her.
