ENJOY discovering each individual temperament and personality! Ghost Town In Colorado I am behind the eight ball on updating, but I'm still getting all the training in, We have the two blue partis still available now to good homes. If you're interested in one of these sweeties, message me, or fill out a no obligation Application and tel me more about you. The Journey begins! I always give the Babies time to heal from Docking and Dew Claw removal, before we start our intensive life training! This is where I get super excited! As a life long trainer and behaviorist, my love is to instill a firm foundation for these puppies. I have always been a firm believer in the "start early", functional, daily training and conditioning. We use natural tools to stimulate the senses.Their God given instinct to "FIND MOM" is so strong, and we can use it to promote tenacity, and strength, not only physically, but mentally. We want to add critical thinking, starting now! Most of the technique for this strategy, is slight and tender. A lot of touch and smell of different humans, that lead them to feel comfortable and safe. Instilling trust of those humans by helping them make their trek to the almighty nipple. These exercises begin the introduction of the puppy, to, "Whatever is attached to this smell and this touch, it's here to help me!" We want them first and foremost to trust us humans, and see us as the leadership they need to tap in to and follow. And to see us as the wise fearless leaders that they can confidently learn from.

    Standard Poodle Breeder, Quality Standard Poodles, Standard Poodle Puppies on the Western Slope of Colorado Our Puppies: Our Services OUR PUPPIES Little Cutie Pies see available puppies here Our Puppies are going to have it all! While every puppy is different and has a different personality, we are going to try our hardest to ensure that you get a puppy that has been through EVERYTHING that he/she might encounter at your home, business, farm, condo, apartment, etc. We will start them from the moment they are born with imprinting them to human touch, breath, and vocals. We will never let our puppies out of the nursery until they are at least 8 weeks old(usually closer to 9-10), and have started to show confidence in this world we are living in. Our Job as conscientious breeders, is to ensure the well being of all of our puppies, which is why we require a home study, which usually includes a Facetime call, character references, and a full contract agreement to never breed your puppy without personal consent. You must agree as a responsible owner to Spay or neuter by the time noted on your contract from High Mesa Standards, and agree that if for any reason you decide this puppy is not for you, you send it back to High Mesa Standards. This is specifically to ensure that None of our puppies end up in a shelter, or worse, neglected at home with no love. This would break my heart. Get in Touch Puppy Contract Turnkey Puppies

    Standard Poodle Breeder, Quality Standard Poodles, Standard Poodle Puppies on the Western Slope of Colorado THE STORY OF HIGH MESA STANDARDS How We Got Started From the time I was a young girl, I have always loved animals. Particularly DOGS! I love them, everything about them. My parents started out their marriage early years showing Dobermans. Over the years we have had many different breeds, and had many years of learning what training methods work best with what dogs. As an adult it just seemed natural for me to start an obedience training business. I did that (training) for many years, and even included classes with the rec district of Montrose county. After my kids started school, we decided I needed to home school my kids, and I ended my dog training business. My kids are grown now, and so I am back to my love of dogs. I specifically loved the Standard Poodle's Intelligence, and wanted to try a breeding program that focused on personality and health traits, as well as beauty. I believed I could achieve a better Standard poodle based on those qualities, AND have beauty too. And so, High Mesa Standards was born. I know you are going to love our puppies as much as we do.

Pierce has earned his UKC championship and will be competing for his Grand in the upcoming months. He has come so far in such a little amount of time and we are so proud of him. We plan to start Fast Cat Here in a new Venue in Grand Junction Colorado soon. I can't wait to see him in a sport. We will update often. INTRODUCING NEW UKC CHAMPION UCH SIR ARTHUR PIERCE MAXWELL KTN PIERCE Pierce- Black/Blue Parti Standard Poodle. Standing 24 1/2 inches and 50 lbs, is a very fun-loving, active male. He adds so much flavor to our bunch. He came to us without many manners, but in such a short time, he has picked up everything we have taught him AND we brought him to his first show ever, where he performed amazingly, and was so willing to do anything I asked of him. He has now in three shows picked up his UKC Championship ( 100 pts and 3 comp wins needed for champion) In conformation, he adds a wonderful angulation in the rear, nice shelf, high tight feet, a really nice top line and shorter loin. Everything we have been looking to improve on our line. We could not be more pleased. He also is very healthy, and adds a little more in the sporty category. Still, he has a wonderful fast off switch, and is very mellow inside the house. He LOVES a challenge and loves to learn, and be handled. He loves to GO everywhere with us and rides in the car like a champ. We can't wait for you all to meet him, and to see what he and Rose produce for Pups.
