"Rio" is our first Standard Poodle and our first dog with HAIR!! After Alan and I spent a great deal of time with Kay Palade and her poodles, we knew we had to have one! Trusting Kay and her knowledge of the breed, we let her choose which puppy was best for us. We also needed LOTS of grooming lessons!! Thank you to Kay, Sam, Joseph, Wendell & Sara...you guys are truly the best! Thanks to Rio for his patience!!! What a good boy!

Joseph Vergnetti handled Rio to 4 Majors very quickly! Rio finished his championship with his breeder, Kay, on the end of the lead. Rio also placed second of sixteen in the competitive Bred-By Exhibitor class at PCA. Rio is a multiple Group winner and has been producing very nicely. He has produced his first champion from his first breeding. He also has other pointed get in the ring.
