Hello,

I will be moving to the Greenville, SC area next year and I’m looking for standard poodle breeders who don’t dock their pups’ tails. So far I know of

1. Shyre Poodles - Columbus, OH
2. Ivy League Poodles - CT
3. Heart Song Standard Poodles - AL

Are there any closer to SC that don’t dock tails? Thank you in advance

I'm sorry, I don't know of any offhand. Leaving tails undocked is still uncommon in the US, as you've noticed.
We have a member who's a breeder of beautiful standards in Louisiana, NOLA Standards. You might contact her to ask if she can refer you to someone.

This recent thread offers several other breeder names, all also in Louisiana. No mention of tails in the thread, but some more possibilities for contact.

Good luck! I feel so sad when I look at Peggy's docked tail. It's very cute, sticking straight up like an antenna, but it doesn't feel right to have taken a piece of her away. I respect your efforts.
