Soki has nice conformation with a fantastic, plush coat texture. Nice feet, rear, topline, and temperament. She is a well-balanced, athletic Standard Poodle with a bright mind and a lively spirit. She is always ready for activity and will happily retrieve or adventure as long as you’re willing, yet she settles easily and enjoys relaxing with her people at the end of the day. Soki has a playful sense of humor and just enough mischief to keep life interesting, while still being biddable and eager to work with you. She is social and gets along well with other dogs, making her an enjoyable companion in multi-dog households. As a mother, she has proven to be attentive, nurturing, and confident, passing on her stable temperament and sound structure to her puppies. Soki embodies the versatility and joyful companionship that make the Standard Poodle such an exceptional family and performance dog.

🌟 Introducing the Future Poppy × Tanuki Litter — Planned for April 2026🌟

We are thrilled to pair our beloved Poppy with the exceptional Tanuki, a Standard Poodle who embodies the very best of the multi-colored breed.

Why we chose Tanuki:

🏆 Proven Excellence: Tanuki is extensively titled and fully health-tested, making him an outstanding representative of the breed both in the ring and in life.

⚡ Balanced Drive: With medium energy and a strong “off-switch,” Tanuki is eager to work yet settles beautifully at home. He is toy-driven but also food-motivated, making him versatile in training.

💖 Wonderful Temperament: Known for his happy, loving nature, Tanuki wins hearts wherever he goes. He is highly intelligent, biddable, friendly, and has that delightful Poodle sense of humor.

🧘 Rock-Solid Confidence: Calm and steady in new environments, polite with strangers (both human and canine), and remarkably good with children as well as farm animals — goats, sheep, pigs, horses, and even cats.

😊 True Companion: Above all, Tanuki simply loves doing things with his people — whether it’s a new adventure, time in the ring, or just being part of the family.

We believe this pairing will produce smart, confident, loving Standard Poodles with excellent structure, trainability, and temperaments suited for both performance, companionship, and the UKC multi-color show ring. Brindles, brindle and white, and sables will result from this pairing.

🐾 Brilliant and Biddable: Poppy is highly trainable, excelling in both obedience and conformation. With excellent recall and a strong desire to work for her people, she thrives on learning and partnership.

🐀 True Sporting Instinct: A skilled and enthusiastic hunter, Poppy’s natural rodent-hunting ability speaks to her sharp instincts and athleticism. Her determination and courage are legendary — she has even been known to scale a 6-foot fence to pursue her goal!

🧸 Loving Guardian: Poppy has a tender, devoted side. She is the quintessential nanny dog, never fully relaxing until she knows her family and pack are safe and accounted for.

🐕 Respect Earned, Not Assumed: Poppy greets strangers with polite indifference, asking them to earn her respect — a hallmark of her intelligence and discerning nature.

⚡ Balanced Energy: Playful and spirited when it’s time for fun, yet with a solid “off switch,” Poppy is easy to live with. She’s alert without being noisy, saving her voice for true warnings.

👑 Graceful Presence: With fluid movement, and the pride and carriage expected of a well-bred Poodle, Poppy is as striking in the ring as she is at home.

🐾 Natural Leader: Poppy has stepped into the role of pack disciplinarian with wisdom and fairness, yet she always defers to her humans — a testament to her steady temperament.

From Poppy, we expect puppies with keen intelligence, trainability, athleticism, and a deep devotion to their families — the kind of dogs who can excel in sports, shows, or simply as steadfast companions.

Our Puppies: Bred for Health, Longevity, and Loving Companionship

At Forest City Standard Poodles, every litter is thoughtfully planned, and when we do have puppies, they become our world. We are now on the fourth generation of our line, a testament to the health, vitality, and longevity of our dogs. Each parent dog is extensively health tested and listed with the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA). As members of BetterBred, we also use their science-backed approach to improve health and genetic diversity in future litters.

Our puppies are raised in our home, where we use Puppy Culture and Avidog enrichment programs to build confident, well-adjusted companions who are prepared for life with you. This includes socialization, early training, and developmental activities that support strong temperaments and resilience in new environments.
