I have a large family (seven children) and we live on a 20-acre mountain homestead. We have a 5 year old Maltipoo, Chloe, that we love and adore. We homeschool and are usually home with her, but on the few occasions we do leave her (church, etc) she gets lonely. We wanted her to have a litter, so she could experience motherhood and so we could keep a daughter to be companions. Chloe is in excellent health and has never had any health problems. We do holistic care. We found a DNA tested miniature poodle and bred them successfully. Chloe recently had a litter of three pups. She has been a fabulous, attentive mother. The puppies live in our home, in our living room/kitchen, and are next to our bedrooms. They are our priorities. We did ENS training and have been crate training, potty training, and they are worked with daily and are well-socialized with kids and pets. We have loved the experience and if there is demand we would like to have one more litter in a year or two.
