Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why do you prefer to sell puppies with United Kennel Club registration?

Historically, all of our adult dogs were dual registered with the AKC and the UKC and the litters were made available with AKC papers with the option of UKC papers. While we will continue to dual register our adults (at least for now), our litters will likely only be registered with the United Kennel Club. As breeders of multi-colored poodles, the distinction by the AKC that only solid poodles are considered conformationally correct hinders those of us who happen to appreciate all of the colors and patterns of these beautiful pooches. We would rather patronize a club that shares our belief and values.

2. I want one, but I live in an apartment and I thought poodles were hyper.

        I have no idea where this misconception came from. Perhaps it stems from their excitement about the outdoors. When outside, poodle are in their element. They generally enjoy running, swimming, performing tricks, and tons of other things. Inside, however, they can easily be mistaken for pillows. I cannot count the number of times I have sat on the sofa trying to decide how much I really need an item in the other room becuse of the maze of poodles on the floor I would have to navigate to get there and back. At the age of 5 months old, when I take my puppies out, people think they are adult miniature poodle because they are so well behaved. Please understand, however, that poodles are intelligent and, if they are bored, they can become destructive. I have lost many a pillow to boredom. Just make sure they have toys and some time outdoors to burn off some energy and they will be happy. They can easily be suited to any household in any housing location.

3. Are poodles really hypoallergenic?

       Short answer, no. No dog is truly hypoallergenic. People with allergies could be allergic to saliva, fur, dander, or other things. Although poodles shed only minimally when compared to other dogs, they can still trigger an allergic reation in some people. I suggest that, if you have allergies to pets, you physically meet the litter that you are interested in or ask us about our T-Shirt Test and make sure that the puppy your heart is set on will not trigger a reaction in you.

4. What is the difference between moyen and standard poodles?

'Moyen' is simply the french word for medium or intermediary. These poodles are simply small standards. In other countries, this size is the forth size of poodles but, in the USA, these dogs are recognized as standards they are simply smaller, usually between 16" and 20" tall and up to 40 lbs.

5. What else should I know about the breed?

 

A.

Grooming, grooming, grooming. Poodles are wonderful, smart, beautiful, and friendly but they are not magic. They have hair and not fur meaning that the hair will continue to grow until it is clipped. Many poodle owners choose to keep their dogs clipped close and that is perfectly fine. Expect to have to get your dog groomed at least every 6 weeks.

B.

          Poodles are like people. They can have all sorts of personalities from shy and quiet to social butterfly and chatterbox. Although you may be tempted to choose a puppy simply because of coat color, it is important to consider the personality of the pooch and the needs of your family. I will gladly assist in the selection process if you are stumped.

6. Why are your dogs so great for therapy?

We strive to produce puppies that are of outstanding temperament, conformation, and health. Science enables us to breed for conformation and health. It also allows us to programs puppies from early on to have better responses to stimuli. To attain the temperament that we have in our pooches, we perform bio-sensory stimuli on them from just three days old. Not only does it help them develop to be healthier, more stable  puppies, but it gives us a bit of an idea as to who would be best for therapy.

7. What is the Guardian Angell Program?

          As much as I absolutely love ALL of the puppies that I produce, there is no way I can possibly keep them all. I do my absolute best to ensure that the right puppy makes it to his or her perfect home. Occasionally, I happen across a puppy that I feel would aid in the betterment of my lines and I want to retain him as part of my breeding program. In order to create the best puppies that I can and avoid unwanted breedings, I may need to find an owner that lives close to me that is willing to keep the puppy in tact so that he or she can be included in the Mythos program.

          There is a deposit required, the fee is negotiable, and the deposit is refunded at the conclusion of the program provided the contract is honored. When I have the need for the dog, I will contact the guardian and set up the best arrangements either to deliver my dog to them or to deliver the guardian dog to me. After mating takes place, the dog is returned to the guardian home. I understand that this arrangement is not for everyone, but we at Mythos appreciate all who may be interested.
