We've called them Heather and Horatio, but of course you can choose your own name.

They are sweet and very bright - they are playful, but also love cuddles.

Each has their own cute personality - Heather is small and sweet and cheeky, and Horatio likes to figure out how things work, and sit on boxes.

The breeder is registered with Dogs NZ and we can provide pedigree papers for the pups.
The puppies have been vaccinated and wormed.

Message me if you are interested and you'd like to come and meet them. :)
021-309-310

The puppies are purebred pedigree miniature poodles, and the asking price is $1,000 (all puppy vaccinations have already been paid for)
