Ocala Standard Poodles

Ocala Standard Poodles is a standard poodle breeder in Ocala, FL, serving the central Florida region near Orlando. Shelley Kaufold has been committed to the breed for years and maintains registration with major kennel clubs, ensuring all adults undergo health testing for hip and eye conditions.

Poodles are raised in a home environment with daily playtime and early socialization, and puppies are introduced to children, other pets, and common household sounds. The farmstead setting offers guided outdoor activities and supports development of therapy skills, with several dogs earning therapy dog titles to reflect their stable temperament. Their breeding program emphasizes longevity and genetic diversity, supported by transparent health records shared with prospective homes.

Puppies leave the kennel with a basic vaccination series and microchip registration, and each family receives a detailed guide on nutrition and training. As a family-run kennel, Ocala Standard Poodles maintains personal communication with owners to ensure each dog’s continued well-being.
