Macwhirter Kennels

Macwhirter Kennels, poodles, Plymouth, NC, has been breeding poodles in Washington County in eastern North Carolina near Greenville. Owned by Deborah Walo, the kennel is a member of the Poodle Club of America and follows recommended health testing for hips, eyes, and hearts.

All puppies are raised indoors, socialized with household sounds and visitors, and spend time on secure outdoor runs to encourage balanced development. Adult dogs live on-site under attentive care, and records of lineage and temperament assessments are shared with prospective families. Several dogs hold companion titles, reflecting a focus on both temperament and conformation. A multi-stage socialization program introduces each puppy to varied stimuli, from gentle grooming sessions to basic obedience cues. Detailed groomer training and feeding schedules are documented, offering new owners a clear guide to ongoing care.

Feedback from local veterinarians and owners often notes the breeder’s consistency in producing well-adjusted poodles suitable for family life.
