In November of 1985, a group of dedicated poodle breeders, decided that Alberta needed a resource for the public to utilize to find responsible poodle breeders and to educate about this wonderful breed. While back then, the focus was on conformation, we now participate in a variety of of public education avenues including Pet Expos, Seminars and in recent years performance events.
