Meet the Moss Creek Dads

About Deacon:

Deacon has many conformation Champions on both sides of his pedigree and it shows! He is such a flashy, gorgeous, proud boy -- but not too proud to fetch a ball and hang out with the Goldens! We joke "no one told him he's curly," because he is not the typical, aloof Poodle. He loves everyone. Many of his puppies have gone on to do therapy or service work and we are so proud of him!

About Dexter:

Dexter is the product of 3 generations of planning here at Moss Creek and we are thrilled with him! He is a small moyen Poodle, so we get all of the benefits of his smaller stature, without the classically "mini" behaviors of being more vocal and nervous. Dexter loves "letting his hair down" and hanging out with my human children playing ball. He's so joyfully obedient, with such a big personality that he's easy to fall in love with. We are proud of him and excited to see his puppies!

About Gideon:

Gideon is one of our older proud fathers and he has demonstrated over and over that he will give us kind, snuggly, happy, outgoing puppies with fantastic coats. Gideon is the most reliable, laid-back, intuitive Poodle I know. He had a successful search and rescue career before he came to father puppies with us at Moss Creek and he has several puppies who have gone to be service and therapy doodles. We bred a litter of Poodles to keep his line in our program when he retires and that is how we have our handsome Phoenix. Gideon is a cherished dog in our program for his consistently amazing, healthy puppies.

About Harrison:

Harrison is such a little love! He is a favorite of small kids because he tries very hard to be a good boy. He will lie down and make himself really small until even the most hesitant kids have to pet him. He loves belly rubs like a Golden. He loves to be carried around like a baby. He is such a loyal friend and gentle playmate. He has wonderful manners and definitely passes his calm, charming personality on to his puppies.

About Jonah:

Jonah is the smallest boy in our program. I neutered and placed in great pet homes 5 white, Mini, Champion-sired boys before Jonah. It's not only the years of good health history we look for, but also temperament. With Minis, it's so hard to get the complete package and Jonah has it all. He is a character and is always happy! He was raised by Goldens and has no idea he's only 8 pounds. He fetches, swims, is not yappy, and has a huge, sweet personality we all love.

About Murphy:

Murphy is the best snugglebug of a doodle! He acts just like our Standard sized doodles in that he is easy-going and relaxed, but in a much smaller "package." Murphy is one of the first to run and greet someone new and loves to be the center of attention. When he isn't busy being a doodle welcoming committee, he's sitting and staring at one of us, waiting for us to scoop him up and squeeze him. We are so thrilled with Murphy and what he brings to our program, downsizing our puppies while still keeping the temperament we love and breed for in mind.

About Phoenix:

Pheonix is one show-stopping Poodle! We groom him like a Doodle and it's really hard to tell him apart from our doodles. He has that short nose and more "Teddy Bear" face. The first thing anyone says when they see Phoenix is what a wonderful looking Poodle he is, and how beautiful his color is... and I think he really knows it! He is such a ham, and loves to show everyone that Poodles don't have to be aloof or too refined. He is a really level-headed, stable, patient, and outgoing. He is from a long line of Poodles who produce service and therapy dogs, and he very much lives up to his lineage.

About Riggs:

About Riley:

Riley is such a sweet boy with such a light heart! He doesn't take anything too seriously and is always making us laugh. He loves hugs, and showing off his fetching skills that rival all of our Goldens. He gives his puppies his loyal disposition and his sense of humor, as well as his perfect conformation. He has many puppies who have gone on to be emotional support animals, therapy dogs, and service dogs because they are such a wonderful balance of confident and devoted. We are so blessed to have Riley in our program -- his test scores are perfect and his temperament is such a treasure.

About Skipper:

We searched for years before we found a red and white parti Poodle who we were excited about, and Skipper is The One! He has everything we look for in our Poodles -- that short nose, the more square build, and a fabulous, outgoing temperament. He is so charismatic and loves to make everyone laugh, but he is also really sweet and snuggly. He has surpassed all of our expectations with his health clearances and his personality.
