What's New
We have posted some of our pictures from our puppy families as well as our friends and training partners to share with you.
These candids depict many of the successes we have had with our Poodle puppies as well as the dedicated families our poodles share their lives with.
The Standard Poodle is a very versatile companion and really craves human contact.
They make wonderful family pets and can also hunt in the field, float in the conformation ring, run an agility course, assist in assistance/therapy work, or just lay on the couch and be one's best friend.
We are very proud of the accomplishments our puppies have made and like to remain "In the know" with their current activities.
We often update this page when we get new pictures and have many more for review upon request.
Should you have any questions about our available PUPPIES, please review our puppy page or CONTACT us via telecom or Email.

It is a Great Suprise when a family with one of our RED girls (Moxie) comes back for a RED boy (Sonic) and we found out their trainer, Debra Wiese in Lincoln CA is using our RED, Rocky X Rubee Daughter for their "cover girl" on Debra's Pet Obedience training business. That is the ultimate compliment for a breeder. Thank U Deb!

This book titled, United States and Canada Dog Travel Guide, is a MUST HAVE book for the doggie enthusiast that does any amount of travel with their doggies of all breeds.
What makes this book VERY special and near to us at Marquis Diamond Standard Poodles is the authours, Len and Tara Kain, along with their 2 children, chose us for their new family member standard poodle after the loss of their beloved black boy that inspired them to write these travel books.
Len and Tara Kain not only chose one poodle, they chose 2! They took a brown boy and a black boy from our breeding between our Multi Champion Valentino X Co Co in 2010. We were very proud as the Kain family did alot of searching and traveling to breeders homes and decided to bring into their family and their travels, 2 of our puppies.
Len and Tara travel extensively in a motor home with their family and their dog (S) documenting their experiences with all dog friendly accomodations, parks, attratctions , beaches, outdoor dining, public transportation and emergency vets throughout the USA and Canada.
They also offer a free website: www.DogFriendly.com/updates. This Website offers info that comes new following each of their travel experiences. This book is their 4th edition and offers over 20,000 + Dog Friendly Places!
Many thanks to the Kain family for their trust in us for their new family member standard poodles!!

This is Jack and Victor in Wisconsin this winter, 2007- 2008. It is really cold there and the pictures reflect the snowflakes that fall in WISCONSIN all winter.....
Marquis Diamond, Jack and Victor are loved, spoiled, trained and shown in Agility, Obedience and Rally "O' Trials by their dog Mom Wendy and Bill too! Their Momma, Wendy, does all of their grooming herself. Wendy is self-taught and is really doing quite well at it! Bill, Wendy and Jack came to California in 2006 for a vacation, and to visit our poodle family. Jack is so well-versed in his verbal commands, we were AMAZED at the ability he had to learn with Momma Wendy in their obedience endeavors. Jack has done so well that he received his first two novice titles in agility November 2007 in Spring Grove, Illinois: Novice Agility (NA) and Jumpers w/Weave Novice Agility (NAJ). Jack and Victor are both trained and completely loved.
This beautiful creame-colored boy is Wilson, also called Willie. Willie came to us at Marquis Diamond Standard Poodles as a surrender to the www.LassenAnimalRescue.com. With the help of www.NorCalPoodleRescue.net, we found Willie his Forever home in Salt Lake City, Utah with the Dolowitz family. Brian drove Willie to Elko, Nevada July 2007 and met his new family there so Willie Boy could start the first leg in his new home. Mom and Dad Dolowitz think Willie is the BEST. Willie joins them and their two other standard poodles. Willie is pictured here during his "Welcome Home Party" in Utah.
The far-right picture is Willie Boy after his family had him professionally groomed. Willie is also pictured with his two poodle pals that are also rescues. The Dolowitz family is dedicated to their Standard Poodle clan and it shows!

Brooke Armstrong and Lokita have traveled ALL OVER THE USA and back again.
Together, they have traveled more air miles in a year than I can count. Loki is a licensed Service Canine in San Francisco, CA. Puppy parking for Loki in San Francisco is a normal, daily habit. Loki never waits at home for Brooke. They "just do it" together, always!
Many people ask about the temperaments of our poodles at Marquis Diamond Kennels. Most of our puppies are in companion homes and live much better lives than we could wish for.
We receive emails and cards from all over, celebrating the lives our puppy families share with their Marquis Diamond Standard Poodles. The temperaments of our poodles must be right or we would not have received the positive responses that we have over the years.
We have picked out some of the more colorful cards to share with you. We have references for your consideration, available upon request.
