Jenkinson Standards

Jenkinson Standards, poodles, Gainesville, TX, in Cooke County and North Texas near Dallas, is dedicated to ethical breeding. Linda Jenkinson has been breeding poodles for over fifteen years and maintains active membership in the American Kennel Club, ensuring parents receive comprehensive health tests for hips, eyes and thyroid.

Their dogs live indoors as family members with daily socialization and supervised outdoor play in a spacious, fenced yard. Puppies experience early enrichment through gentle handling and exposure to household sounds, helping them adapt smoothly to new homes.

The kennel offers both standard and miniature sizes in a variety of coat colors, guided by a family-run tradition that values temperament and health equally. Recent feedback highlights their calm temperaments and consistent focus on breeder responsibility over volume. Each puppy receives basic grooming instruction before leaving, including coat brushing and nail care to ease transitions for new families. Linda often shares progress updates with photos, illustrating a transparent approach that many families appreciate.
