PTK RANCH
Poodles
Our Standard Poodle program is built around long-term health, proven trainability, stable temperament, and intentional early development. More than a third of the puppies produced from our last four litters have gone on to certified service work, including seizure awareness, blood sugar alerts, mobility and stability assistance, PTSD support, and other task-based roles. Our lines have also proven themselves in therapy, family, and youth performance settings. Parent dogs are carefully selected and evaluated through DNA testing, PennHIP with scores better than breed average, OFA elbow prelims, cardiac, patellas, and eyes. Puppies begin Early Neurological Stimulation and scent introduction in their first days of life, followed by regular handling, socialization, and rea-life experiences designed to support confidence, focus, adaptability, and willingness to work.
about the breed
Essential Information
Standard Poodles are highly intelligent, athletic, highly trainable dogs known for their versatility as companions, working dogs, and performance partners. Their combinations of focus, adaptability, and willingness to work is a major reason they excel in service, therapy, sport, and active family homes. Our Standard Poodles typically mature around 48-70 pounds and are selected for stable temperaments, sound structure, and long-term health.
Their furnished coats are naturally low-shedding and known for having very little dog odor. While no dog can be guaranteed completely non-shedding or hypoallergenic, Standard Poodles are often a good choice for families looking for a lower-shedding companion.

Colors
All our Poodles are genetically set to ONLY produce parti phantoms. This is so that when we keep one back, we know they will always produce a colorful Aussiedoodle with tan points and white markings.
A parti is a “spotted” Poodle. They can be either a classic parti with blotches of color and white, or a tuxedo parti that the body is mainly black with white legs and/or white collar.
A phantom is a Poodle with tan points. Tan points are typically seen as eyebrows, brown/tan cheeks, under the tails, and since the parti pattern creates white legs, if there is “ticking” (a freckle look) the lower half of the leg and chest will express the tan points as well.
