Known for excelling in the show ring, Poodles are also adored family pets. If you're looking to buy a Standard or Miniature Poodle, you should know that there's a lot to think about, including finding the right breeder.
But where do you start looking for top breeders? How can you protect yourself against scams and dishonest sellers? Buying a Poodle puppy may seem like a minefield, but with planning and research, it doesn't have to be.
That's where our useful breeders' guide comes in. Here you'll find some of the top breeders with Poodles for sale in and around Brisbane.
The best way to safely and responsibly buy a Poodle puppy is to choose an ANKC recognised breeder. This is because they generally breed for quality, and the welfare of their breeding dogs is a top priority for them - their dogs are part of the family and are treated as such.
They also ensure their puppies are vet checked, DNA tested, and vaccinated before going to their new homes. This means you'll end up with a puppy that's healthy and fully socialised, reducing the risk of health or behavioural issues developing in later life.
Pets Online will only approve kennels that are featured on the dog breeders register of Queensland. Below you'll find the names and contact details of registered breeders located in Brisbane and the surrounding areas.
Bienaime's poodles are not kept under strict grooming rules to grow their ears or maintain their coats, so you won't encounter photos of impeccably groomed poodles, but rather images of her friends and companions, among which some are show dogs. Her poodles find their greatest joy in assisting with gardening tasks, chasing tennis balls, or simply basking in the sun's warmth.

Morpaudl, esteemed for its responsible breeding practices, is a prominent name in the realm of poodle breeders.

Morpaudl excels in cultivating a nurturing environment that promotes the growth and development of their poodles, setting them apart in the industry.
This depends on the breeder and whether their puppies are from show bloodlines or not. High-quality breeding isn't cheap, and top breeders spend years learning how to produce exceptional puppies. Not to mention for most pups from registered breeders, the price will include microchipping, vaccination, and health scoring. However, for Standard Poodles, you can expect prices to start at around $1,000 and about $1,500 for Miniature Poodle puppies.
Your Poodle puppy should come with a health score report, vaccination records, and a kennel club or pedigree breeding document.
As long as you're careful and stick to directories that only list registered breeders, buying a Poodle puppy online can be safe. With how vast the internet is, it's very easy for scammers to reach you (and your money), so always be cautious.
The best way of safeguarding yourself when buying a puppy is to choose an ANKC-recognised kennel. This gives you a better chance of buying a healthy and happy puppy.
