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.

October is on the doorstep, and Autumn is begun both meteorologically and astronomically. We haven't had a frost yet but some mornings you can see your breath. First CKC scent detection trial is in the books, a beautiful warm sunny day which makes the day go a whole lot nicer even if you don't get all the Titles that you had hoped to achieve. Oh well, there is another trial in a few of weeks.

We have our schedule for CKC events in 2026 all finalized and approved. One more Scent Detection event 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.

Temporarily renaming this section - that doesn't happen very often. What does happen often is people coming for events and leaving things behind. Usually they are minor things, maybe a leash, gloves or the 'indoor' shoes. Very rarely does anyone leave behind anything that would be considered expensive. Even more rare is that we don't get contacted asking if anyone has turned in said expensive article that was left behind within a few days of the event.

So in January of this year we had a scent detection trial. It was cold, there was a lot of snow in the days leading up to the event. There were a LOT of people here and one person left behind a nice coat. A RED Equipment long sleeve waterproof hooded EVO changing robe in Teal. Size S. We had it out during the scent trial here at the end of September and it wasn't claimed. So with one more scent trial coming up, maybe someone says 'hey. that's mine' or someone knows someone who was wondering where they left their clothing.

If you recognize this and wish to claim it, please contact us. There were a pair of sunglasses in the pocket, and if you can tell me what colour the frames are it would go a long way to proving your claim to the coat. Hopefully it can find it's way onto the back of the rightful owner.

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.
