Who We Are

I began showing dogs in the 1970's.  My breed of choice then was English Springer Spaniels under the name of Roustabout.  When my daughter, Rebecca, graduated from college she wanted a dog to show in obedience and agility and thought it would be fun that mom and daughter would show a breed together.  Thus my "New Journey" began into poodles and the return to showing in conformation and performance events.  Ready, an apricot miniature male was our first poodle and he became a Champion in conformation for me and has also earned his MACH 2 title in agility with Rebecca. When I started to look for my next poodle, I met Tim Garrison and David Williams from Eaglehill Poodles in New Haven, CT, and waited for 2 years for my next poodle addition.  Tim and David have bred over 25 black miniature champions.  Journey, a black miniature, joined us and completed her Championship from the puppy class, owner-handled also.  Tim, David and I began to co-breed black miniature poodles together a few years later under Tim and David's very successful Eaglehill prefix.

Today, Tim, David, and I continue to co-breed black miniature poodles, along with Handi Skorich, from Indianapolis, and together we have produced some very beautiful miniature poodles for Conformation, Agility, and Obedience.  We rarely have more than 6 housedogs living with any one of us at a time.

Rebecca and I also co-breed apricot/red miniature poodles with Carolyn Addison of the successful Carbet Stone Creek line of miniature poodles in South Carolina, with the same ideals and standards as our black miniature poodle line.  

Poodles are the most wonderful house-pets a person could ask for - just ask us.
