Your Canine Sports Home in the Country :: The Poodle Farm

Here at the Poodle Farm, we are committed to the idea of performance and versatility. All canine sports are welcome here, with a fully fenced and gated agility ring outdoors or inside our heated training building. All breeds are welcome, it isn't an exclusive club for poodles!

Please join in our support for Agility, Rally, Scent Detection and Obedience activities including training from introduction to advanced skills and special events. We remain a facility open to clubs wishing a dedicated venue for registered competition with CKC and CARO affiliations.

2026 marks a change for us as we focus on our events, facility and services. It marks an end to almost 2 decades of providing locally-manufactured equipment and training tools for a wide variety of canine sport and therapeutic activities. Thank you to all our customers for the support they have shown over the years, it has helped immensely in the development of The Poodle Farm.

Debby and Mel are in St John, NB for the UKI Canadian Open. Initial results are encouraging, Bazyl already has a "Bye Certificate" into the Masters Series Final for a 4th place finish. He looks pretty happy, and I know that Debby is happy. I am happy too, and the 4 poodles left behind seem pretty happy as well.

We have our schedule for CKC events in 2026 all finalized and approved. Scent Detection events in September and again in October. And the CKC Obedience and Rally weekend starts October 31 with the BDKOC taking the reins this year. Check out the Events Calendar for more details.

Debby is away and I have lots of things to keep me busy. Well, four things anyways that have priority. Krystal, Pynk, Jyve, Tyrion. Fortunately the way they behave with me when Debby isn't around makes it easy to succeed. Nice, quiet, well-behaved. Get up when it is time to get up, go to sleep when it is time to sleep. Get along, don't fight, don't bark excessively, give each other space. 2 boys, 2 girls. 2 shades of apricot, 2 shades of grey. It's like a regular Noah's Ark - especially when it rains the way it has this summer.

Poodles are far easier to deal with than Politicians. Poodles will steal your lunch if you aren't careful, and might even steal your sneakers. But they won't steal your lunch money. The only thing they want to kiss is your face. Poodles know who is in charge, and they also know who is responsible for food and when that food should be arriving in their bowl. They are not stupid.

Here I was worried about being unfriended BY Facebook before I even had a chance to get a friend. Now I have been unfriended by an entire country and I wasn't even trying to be their friend. Hard to be disappointed when you start from a position of indifference. I have updated my flag picture, there seems to be more than enough people in the world who feel the same way I do.

Our second CARO Rally trial is in the books for 2026. Another actually nice, though still long, day. We are again happy to be able to help prospective new CARO Judges meet their shadow judging and mentoring requirements, extending our pool of talent with certification for all levels of judging. Results (unofficial) in PDF format for the Regular Classes and Working Classes are now available. Check in your CARO portal for your own official results and report any discrepancies.
