United Mountain Horse    Ardent Standard Poodles    Home     Ranch Photo Album       Contact Us


                Welcome! In addition to our wonderful Mountain Horses, we are crazy about Poodles! Standard Poodles, that is. They are great ranch dogs, great family dogs and wonderful all-around companions, but only if you like lots of love and great intelligence.

                "Tia", Valentino's Ti Amore, was our first Standard Poodle. Bert’s family had once had a Standard Poodle, so when we decided to get a dog, naturally that was what we had to have. Tia sold Paula on the breed immediately.

Tia is a wonderful friend and teacher for our new additions.

The Next Generation

                On October 1, 2003, Ch. Todd's Blue Iris of Antiphon (by Ch. Kaylen's Cadillac Style) whelped two puppies from the last live breeding by Ch. King's Champagne Taste, producer of more champion offspring than any other Poodle of any variety. It was a repeat breeding for Iris, and as breeder Karen Csutoras of Obsidian Poodles had kept puppies from the prior breeding, she allowed us to purchase both of these outstanding prospects.

                They already knew the call names Karen chose for them-Adam and Eve.


                     adam           Adam       

                 Ch. Obsidian Champagne Event ("Adam") was first to be shown. We will be forever spoiled with the performance of this spectacular young dog.  He finished his championship at ten months of age, and in the next month was shown as a puppy special, winning three Best of Variety and a group placement.  He totaled four four-point majors, multiple Best of Winners and Best of Variety, Best Puppy in Show and group placement, all before one year of age.

                 Handler Betty Brown and her staff at Donnchada have done a superb job with Adam.

                 Adam is a wonderful combination of the best of his famous sire and his champion dam. His movement is exciting - up-headed, charismatic, driving, with extreme side gait.   He has a fantastic, thick, hard coat, and is short backed with a good tail set.   One of his most spectacular attributes is his headpiece.  Adam has the cleanest backskull and simply the most beautiful head of any dog we have ever seen, and we keep looking.  Adam has serious bone, muscling, ribs and chest. Finally, his personality is the best – playful and intelligent, loyal and devoted.

                 We were truly lucky to find a dog of this caliber. Adam has had complete genetic testing (all normal, negative) and OFA films (rating “good”). His color testing shows he is homozygous dominant black.  He is available for breeding by live cover or shipped fresh or frozen semen.

              

                                                     Adam at one year, and today at home.   Adam is now a happy ranch dog and shows astonishing athleticism and stamina.  He can tirelessly cover 50 acres at lightning speed.  He is simply the most beautiful Standard we have ever seen, and has been completely healthy all of his life.  He is available for breeding to approved bitches. 

"Eva" - Ch. Obsidian Special Event

                    Adam's littermate is "Eva", a sturdy yet completely feminine girl with exuberant personality and sparkling intelligence.  Poodles as a rule are smart, but this girl takes canine intelligence to another level.  There are lots of "Eva" stories!

                    Eva is compact and stylish.  Eva shares her brother's up-headed, long-strided movement and showy, "look at me" ring carriage. She also has that gorgeous face and headpiece.  Eva finished her championship with a four point major in Denver on February 20, 2006, against stiff competition.  She is now at home with all of her genetic testing completed (all normal and OFA rating "good").  

                    Eva is registered as a blue; some say she is now silver, but in actual color she is a beautiful gray.

   Eva is pure joy.

Our new girl - Obsidian Ardent Surprise  -- "Libby"        -----        Watch for puppies early May, 2010!!

Ch.D'Kamron Klassic Kosmo X Obsidian Canisy Its My Life

                We are excited with our new black girl that is a great mate for Adam.  "Libby"  has a spectacular head, backskull and eyes, long neck and even longer legs, elegant bearing, fluid movement, beautiful feet, and sterling pedigree.  (Libby's sire "Kosmo" bred to Libby's aunt (dam's sire's full sister) has produced a multiple best of show winner.)  Libby and Adam are a perfect match by pedigree and type, and we are expecting a show quality litter.

                 Libby and Adam have completed their tests for SA, thyroid, Von Willibrands, hips and eyes.  The litter will be all black.  Show and companion contracts should be available.  Please contact us if you would like further information - 541-973-0622.
