Temple City Poodles is a small, in-home breeder dedicated to preserving the wonderful Poodle breed. Our family has over 40 years of dedication and experience in the breed, and our appreciation for them continues to grow. These dogs are our family and have free access to roam the house, a large backyard, and high quality, premium dog food--and of course, treats :)

We are located in southern Alberta, Canada. Near Waterton Lakes National Park. We are members of the Poodle Club of Alberta and Canadian Kennel Club in good standing, and abide by our club bylaws and code of ethics. Rachel is currently serving in the PCA Executive as secretary.

We show our dogs in conformation and are training towards agility, Rally, CGN, and BarnHunt titles. The Poodle is an exceptionally smart breed that enjoys a variety of activities. They are bright, eager to please, and quick to catch onto new behaviours. All of our puppies, whether show/performance or pet quality, are introduced to obedience skills, agility equipment, and being handled on a grooming table.

We have had past puppies become therapy dogs, conformation prospects, and many are excelling in agility, obedience, and other dog sports. The Poodle is a truly versatile breed.

8 month old London.

Our puppies are born in our home where they are handled daily and introduced to grooming at a very young age. ENS (early neurological stimulation) and ESI (early scent introduction) begin at 3 days old. We follow Puppy Culture protocols to socialize and mentally enrich our puppies, raising them to their fullest potential. They are well socialized with people, kids, other dogs, and become accustomed to every day life situations: meeting strangers, going for rides, walks, being bathed, etc. The puppies are ready to go at 9-10 weeks old (though it may vary depending on the puppy).

Temple City Poodles' ultimate goal is to breed sound, healthy Poodles that adhere to the breed standard, excel in performance events, and above all, make outstanding companion dogs.

Trudy being a little goose!

We specialize for lighter colours, such as white and cream, but on occasion we will get other colours such as apricot, blue, and silver. We hope to have a line of silver beige Toy Poodles in the future.

We do not always have puppies for sale. Our numbers are small to ensure each dog receives individual attention. If we do not have what you are looking for, we can put you on our waiting list, or refer you to another reputable breeder we trust.

***Important Notice***
We are NOT located in Temple City, California. "Temple City" is a nickname for our town here in Canada. We are also NOT associated with "Pooch and Groom" in California who sells pet-store puppies! We only raise quality CKC Poodles, raised and loved in our home. Thank you.
