"Awake, O north wind; and come thou south; blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out."
Song of Solomon 4:16b
I went on a search one day for a dog that was athletic enough to endurance ride with me. Miss Rachel's Rayeh would change our lives forever. I had discovered such an incredible gift in her, as well as the most versatile dog you could ever have for a friend. Thus, Shiloh Garden Standards was born.
Poodles have long been stereotyped as sissy dogs, ridiculous looking in their fancy haircuts, good for nothing, and not even considered a "real dog". The many myths surrounding them are existing simply due to ignorance about the breed. Negative sentiment against the poodle is so strong, there are shirts and even websites devoted to poking fun at them. Many, having walked in those shoes, are now a very proud owner of a Poodle.
The poodle, an avid hunter, is the oldest known water retriever breed, going back as early as the 1500's. The original poodle was a heavier boned version of todays standard poodle and was used for pulling carts and light herding. We see the poodles of today competing in agility and the show ring. Many are also being used as service dogs to the handicapped, the blind, hearing impared, as drug sniffing dogs and for the search and rescue. They are also used in the field of science through detecting diseases such as cancer, diabetes and seizures. These "human dogs" as they are frequently called, read us better than we do. They have an incredible love, sensitivity and devotion for their human companion. They are athletic, intelligent, elegant and proud and have an "air of distinction" as described in the breed standard.
My desire is to share this magnificent and majestic breed with others! Most importantly however, in keeping with the health and genetic soundness of the breed, our dogs are carefully bred for a low inbreeding co-efficiency. Diverse pedigrees and healthy nutrition are keys to having healthy poodles with long lives. We breed for quality, excellence of confirmation, rich color and sound temperment. All breeding stock have had recommended genetic testing done. The tests inlude Penn-Hip or OFA certification for hips, Eye Cerf (Normal), DNA for VwD (Clear) and Parentage, SA (Normal) and a comprehensive Blood Panel that checks for Addisons, Thyroid and Diabetes. All testing verification is available on request.
"I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. Whoever serves Me must follow Me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves Me."
John 12:24-26
