What to Consider When Looking for a Puppy

Adding a puppy to your family is an exciting and rewarding experience. Here are some essential tips to make the process easier and stress-free.

Helpful Tips to Find the Perfect Puppy for Your Lifestyle and Family

Whether you’re a new dog parent, a long-time dog lover, a retiree, a family with children, or someone searching for a loyal companion or a service dog, we aim to make it easy for you to find a puppy that will be a perfect fit.

Families often face unexpected challenges when bringing a puppy home, mainly due to unforeseen behavioral or health issues.

Behavioral challenges can arise from not fully understanding a puppy’s needs, a lack of training knowledge, or choosing a puppy whose personality might not match the family’s lifestyle.

Health issues such as hip dysplasia, heart murmurs, or dental alignment problems can also occur if the puppy's parents weren’t properly health tested.

When faced with these difficulties, families may feel that adding a puppy or service dog is overwhelming or not as joyful as they had hoped.

How Our Puppies Stand Out

At The Olympus Standard Poodle, we dedicate our time and passion to ethical breeding practices, ensuring thorough genetic and health testing for our parent dogs. We raise our puppies with a structured curriculum and conduct temperament assessments to ensure each puppy meets the needs of their future families.

You’ll welcome a healthy, confident puppy into your home – one that’s eager to learn, obedient, and adaptable to new places, loud sounds, and unfamiliar faces.

We begin crate training and potty training as early as 3 weeks old, providing our puppies with a strong foundation for success in their new homes.

At The Olympus Standard Poodle, we set up each puppy for success, so they can thrive as they join your family!

When looking for a puppy, keep these factors in mind:

Genetic and health screenings for parent dogs
Puppies raised with a structured training program
Puppies that undergo temperament evaluations
A nurturing environment during early development
