"Lord help me to be the person my dog thinks I am."

"Shiloh"

"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 Rayea 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 web sites 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 impaired, 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 include 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 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 live 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


Before Construction

The dream of Shiloh Garden Ranch has become reality!!!  On Febuary 5th, 2003, we moved Shiloh Garden to our new location.  We are very blessed to have our own private piece of the Bitteroot Valley. We are nestled in a basin at the foothills of the Sapphire Mtn. Range, on 220 acres where mule deer & elk are found in abundance ranging the land.  This expanse of space & privacy is a perfect location for our dogs to run free together, separated only during heat cycles. Our babies are hand and ranch raised in the fresh mountain air under the famous Big Sky of Montana, where exercise is plentiful and necessary for good growth and muscular development.  We are not a kennel breeder, our dogs are very much a part of our home and our lives.

They are fed a quality kibble along with organically grown meats, wild game, herbs, raw bones and vitamins.  Homeade recipes, puppy care and training info, pet suppliers, books and video information as well as pedigrees on both parents are provided to each new family in their puppy packet.

Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him and He will do this;
Psalm 37:4-5

"My home is a haven for one who enjoys the clamour of children and ear-splitting noise from
a number of dogs who are always about. And who want to come in and, once in, to go out.
Whenever I settle to read by the fire, some dog will develop an urge to retire, and I'm constantly
opening and shutting the door for a dog to depart or as mentioned before, for a dog to arrive,
who, politely admitted, will make a bee-line for the chair I've just quitted. Our friends may
be dumb, but my house is a riot, where I can sit still and can never be quiet."
Ralph Witherspoon
