A+! My first standard has numerous health issues. As such, I began researching into genetics and health prior to purchasing another standard. I've learned that you either spend the money on the front end or you definitely will towards the end of their life. Annette is the ONLY breeder I've found in the world that will give a lifetime guarantee on health. I have two Rebelstar poodles: a 10 yo and a 2 yo. I've be astounded that those dogs have only needed the vet for shots, which was minimal as I follow Dodd protocol. Annette also offers 24-7 support and has remained in contact with me since I purchased Vegas 10 years ago. Never an issue. She even helped me with Eden (not Rebelstar) and her health issues. Her grooming skills are amazing and I travel 3.5 hours to have her groom my dogs now. They look amazing and I receive compliments regularly. She also matches you with the perfect puppy/temperament for your lifestyle. You may have to wait for the "right the match" but let me assure you, it's worth the wait! I love that Annette opens her home to you and allows her dogs to live in her home, so they are all very socialized. She also has one of the lowest COI % breeding programs and strives to keep her line diverse. That was very important to me and I appreciate her being very open and honest with all testing, as well. She gives you the dogs full kennel name so you can search the registries yourself and not "just take her word" on it. She backs up what she says, which is amazing to find in a breeder. The transparency of her breeding program is extremely impressive and hard to find in other breeding programs. That alone sold me initially. Do your research and I'm sure you will find, as I did, that her program is top notch! read more
