No, but I'd never consider them based on their website. I would drive a few more hours to Gail Zamora in Grass Valley.
Scarlet's Fancy Poodles? Red toy poodle breeder?
Hello,
I am seeking to buy a red toy poodle. Does anybody have experience with or know somebody who got a dog from Scarlet's Fancy Poodles located in Arroyo Grande in Central California? I am considering getting a red toy poodle from them.
Any other leads to breeders of red toy poodles in California, preferably Southern?
Thank you.

Quality really falls off a cliff with Toy poodles. And red is a popular color, so it attracts the junky breeders. For those reasons, I would stick with local poodle club referrals and contact the PCA referral person (Mary Olund) referenced in the other thread.
Without even looking at the website, what you want to see on a website is:
Registered names and evidence that the breeder is doing something with her breeding stock (showing and/or performance).
Proof of testing (OFA links)
Pictures of adults and lists of their accomplishments. Few pictures of puppies, and NO pictures of very young puppies posed and listed for sale.
A good breeder showcases her overall breeding program on a website, not individual puppies for sale.

This is an excellent point and I think a very good screening tool. A website should make the attributes of the program clear rather than listing puppy inventory.Quality really falls off a cliff with Toy poodles.

I think breed clubs and personal references today are the best mode of finding a reputable breeder. I recently found a site where a person is selling poodles and states they have a waiting list, has heath tested, and sometime keeps a pup trains it then for what ever reason sells it. After checking further I found this beeder has not bred any dog before, hence why a waiting list , why say you keep dogs at times and the health testing was not quite clear to me. Puppy prices were off the wall. Mother dog had no AKC registration. Turned out this site was someone who had really a great looking very well trained dog that she thinks is the best ever, more than likely it is, however websites are so mis-leading.So I nixed it off my list. In my searches I've even found sites that use the cutest lil yorkie photos, but I'e seen that same cute dog on different sites. I still look at these sites but I wouldn't buy from one now until I have real recommendations.
Thank you for all the feedback:adore:
I will pass on Scarlett's Red Poodles.
I spoke to Gail Zamora's about her red toy poodles and I liked her and what she shared. What do you think of her breeding program? She has puppies available and I am thinking maybe I should get one from her. I just want a healthy red toy poodle with good temperament. Has anybody had any negative experiences with her dogs? Thanks again!

Toy poodles are not my type, but I do recall that people have said great things about Gail. I would say you have found the person from whom to get your pup.
Good choice. Poodles and Poodle Puppies - Standards, Miniatures and Toys | Ash's Mystical Poodles Breeders | Las Vegas, NV in Las Vegas is another good option. Poodle Club of Las Vegas: Las Vegas Poodle Shows and Events – Obedience, Rally, Agility | Pure Bred Poodles, Puppies, Poodle Rescue, AKC Poodles, Reputable Poodle Breeders .
When I was looking for a poodle, my first stop was to https://www.ofa.org/ Canine Health Information Center. Use the Advanced search option. Type in your breeder's name. Does it come up with information? Or is it empty? When I type my breeder's name, there's all kinds of stuff here. Tests on knees, and hips, and eyes and... That made me feel better about my choice.
I would like to thank you all who answered the questions in my thread. I got a red toy girl poodle from Gail Zamora. I am so happy with my choice. Gail was full of information. I respect and admire how she treats the dogs she breeds. She was very helpful through the process and I learned so much from her. I have had a puppy for a month now - GiGi. GiGi has a great personality and she is a healthy happy puppy. I am very glad I got her from Gail Zamora. Thank you Gail and thank you all!!
Congratulations, and welcome, Gigi 
!!! Great choice, and sure would be nice to see pics of your darling girl!

I bought a tiny beautiful red puppy from Scarlet's Fancy Poodles in late March. She died 5 months later. I want to make sure this never happens to anyone else.Quality really falls off a cliff with Toy poodles. And red is a popular color, so it attracts the junky breeders.

Dear George,
First I want to say hello and welcome to PF. I'm so sorry to hear of your very sad experience, so sorry for your loss, and so sorry for your little girl.
This is a hard, hard lesson to learn and harder still to know it comes at the expense of an innocent life.
I can only say that if someone comes to PF to inquire about a breeder I and others will do our best to inform them of what to look for in a breeder, and to hopefully help them select a breeder who will do all the things necessary to give the pups they send on to new families the very best chance at a long, happy life together.
I hope someday that we'll see a post from you with happier news. If you ever decide to look for another poodle, we're here to help if we can.
