“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.” – Roger Caras
Anton
AKC Miniature Poodle Anton lives in Lydia's parents' home, though he officially belongs to my youngest sister, Alee. Nico held himself aloof when Anton first arrived as a punk little puppy, but now the two enjoy chasing the same squeaky ball, and practice doing tricks together for the same treats. Anton loves the lake life and enjoys trips out in the kayak. He is enthusiastic about all of the grandchildren who come to visit and has a very mature sense of how to be gentle with the littlest ones. Anton passes along his spunky but gentle personality, as well as his smarts and dashing good looks to his chocolate and parti-colored offspring!

Paddington
Every sidekick needs a superhero, which is why Paddington and GrandpaSir make such a great team! An AKC Miniature Poodle who tips the scales at 15 pounds, Paddy idolizes his big "brothers" Anton and Nico. He goes to work with GrandpaSir every day and makes sure everyone who walks through the door has a fuzzy day! He adores riding in the truck and is always up for a ride to...anywhere! Paddy's favorite toy is his bacon-flavored Nylabone, and he likes to play fetch, too. Paddington has a perfect Poodle prance - his gait is fun to watch because he just exudes confidence and fun.

Chester
Paddington's younger brother Chester has officially joined Dutch Haven! Chester is an AKC Miniature Poodle and is the newest member of our family-friends Zack and Laura’s home. He likes you to believe he’s bashful, but don’t be fooled, he is adventurous and loves affectionate attention. He also loves his older brother, Mitty, a rescue Brittney Spaniel. They have quickly become inseparable and do everything together. They sleep in the same bed and love going for rides in the truck together. (Chester claims the best seat!) So long as his big brother Mitty is there, Chester loves taking walks, dashing through fall leaves, and lounging by the fireplace. Chester is a Canine Good Citizen (AKC CGC) and has also earned his AKC Community Canine award.

Leo
Little Leo is big on fun! He may be small in stature but he has the soul of a larger dog. He is loyal and confident, and loves his family, who adores him, too! When he's not spending time hanging out at home snuggling with his family, he enjoys car rides and trips to the beach. Leo's mature size is 14 pounds.

Henry
Henry Bear is a long-legged AKC red miniature poodle, full of spunk and spirit! Henry lives with friends of the McLaughlins down the street, where he gets to play and hang out with his two human brothers and sister. When he’s not at home with his favorite people, Henry enjoys visiting the McLaughlin’s house, where he can race his favorite canine friends Muffet and Sunny in their big yard! We look forward to meeting Henry’s Cockapoo puppies this year, and he will surely pass on his fun-loving, comical personality to his offspring!

If you don't own a dog, at least one, there is not necessarily anything wrong with you, but there may be something wrong with your life. ~Roger Caras
