About Forest City Standard Poodles
Forest City Standard Poodles is a thoughtfully managed breeding program based in suburban Central Florida, dedicated to producing Standard Poodles who reflect the breed’s hallmark intelligence, elegance, and versatility, without sacrificing stability, health, or functional structure. Our dogs are raised in our home, allowing us to evaluate temperament, development, and suitability with care and intention.
Our breeding goals balance grace and beauty with soundness and substance. We strive for Standard Poodles who are mentally steady, physically capable, and comfortable in the modern world - dogs who retain the breed’s natural presence and refinement while being practical, durable companions. Temperament is a cornerstone of our program; confidence, resilience, and adaptability are essential qualities in dogs expected to live closely with people and participate in meaningful work.
While we do not train hunting retrievers, we keep the breed’s original purpose in mind as a framework for structure and movement. We value balanced proportions, good muscling, and efficient, effortless motion—qualities that support longevity, comfort, and athleticism without exaggeration. Our focus is on moderation and correctness rather than extremes, with respect for the breed standard and the many responsible approaches within it.
Forest City Standard Poodles is guided by lifelong experience in the purebred dog world and a commitment to deliberate, ethical breeding. We breed selectively and with purpose, seeking to produce Standard Poodles who embody the breed’s intelligence, beauty, and presence—paired with the temperament and structure needed to live full, active, and meaningful lives.

So much to say about Poppy! She's a lover like her mom, loves to train like her granddad Zero, and pays close attention whenever there's a new lesson afoot. Poppy has a great deal of swagger in the ring and finished her International and National Championship, UKC championship, and earned two grand championship legs before her first birthday. She has multiple Best of Breed and Group wins to her credit, and we look forward to working on more!

"Mochi" DOB 02/14/2025
AKC/UKC Registered
Female Brown Roan Spinone Italiano
Mochi is our newest addition and our only venture outside the Standard Poodle breed. Mochi started her show career off with a bang, winning multiple Best of Breeds, group placements, and with limited showing earning her AKC Puppy of Achievement and both her AKC majors in just one weekend. Mochi is mellow, loving, and like most hunting dogs, can be very stubborn! But she's a willing learner, a natural retriever, and we look forward to seeing all that she accomplishes.
Mochi finished her AKC Championship during National Championship week in Orlando and comes to us from Starfire Spinone here in Central Florida.
