Thank you for your interest in Canzone Standard Poodles.

Lucy (Am Ch Canzone Danfour Lucia) was bred to Larry (Am Ch Safari’s Looking at the Stars) about a month ago. Unfortunately, the sonogram showed no puppies. We will try again to breed Lucy this coming Fall, 2024, but we will not be having a litter this spring.

Feel free to call with any questions, or just to visit about Poodles.

Socialization

When our puppies are about five weeks old, they are moved with their dam to the kitchen area at the center of our home. This is where many other dogs stay and play, and where many different people come to interact with them. All of our eight adult Poodles live in our home with us as part of our family.

In addition, the puppies are exposed to many different home items (vacuum cleaners, umbrellas, stereo music, food processors, sliding doors, etc.) and grooming tools (hair dryers, brushes, spray bottles, etc.) They are given a variety of objects and dog toys for their learning and fun throughout their development. And of course, they play with their litter mates much of their awake time.

We keep our pups until they are nine weeks old so they have the very best start in their new, permanent homes. In addition to being well-socialized, the puppies are well fed and in good weight, veterinarian checked, vaccinated appropriate to age, and groomed. They are clean, healthy, and parasite free. The puppies have been introduced to crate, potty, and lead training, and they come with a health guarantee from genetic issues sometimes found in Poodles.

Lucy is a fourth generation Canzone Poodle bred by Daniel Chavez, Jeff Smith and Geoff Hunnicutt. Lucy finished her American Championship in lightning speed as a puppy over two weekends, including a Group 1 win and two Best of Varieties over Specials, shown by Daniel Chavez.

Lucy lives with us in our home as one of eight Standard Poodles, most from our breeding of Poodles since 2010.  Cream in color, Lucy is square, up on her legs, upright in her carriage, and light on her feet with tail held at noon as she moves gracefully on the move.  She has a lovely head and face with dark almond eyes.  Lucy is about 23 inches tall at the withers, and weighs 55 pounds.

Lucy is confident, friendly with all people, affectionate with her owners, and playful with several fellow Poodles at our home.  She loves attending the neighborhood happy hour each week with many other friends.
