Crystal Dalton

Crystal Dalton, Bernese mountain dogs and poodles, Carlotta, CA, is based in Humboldt County and the Redwood Coast near Eureka. Dalton has more than a decade of experience guided by membership in the American Kennel Club and annual health testing for hips, elbows and eyes.

Each litter is raised inside her home with nightly socialization and daily outdoor play in a fenced yard. Dogs benefit from gentle handling by family members and supervised interactions with guests of all ages. Dalton’s small-scale approach lets her focus on temperament and breed standards as puppies grow alongside retired dogs in a quiet rural setting.

Families often mention calm temperaments and affectionate natures in follow-up feedback. Puppies receive regular gentle grooming sessions to help them become comfortable with poodle clipping and coat maintenance. Crystal remains available for new owners to offer guidance on nutrition and early training milestones.
