Petunia


45lbs. – 23″tall

Petunia is a 3rd generation poodle born at SwissRidge! She is a standard poodle out of Sedona and Grommet. I also own Petunia’s grandparents Coco and Crumpet and I also own many of Petunia’s uncles and aunts. I kept four puppies out of Petunia’s litter – Freya, Petunia, Tallulah and Leida. All of Petunia’s sisters, aunts and uncles, parents and grandparents have passed vigorous health testing. These tests can be viewed on all their individual pages on my website.  This is amazing because Petunia not only comes from health tested parents and grandparents but you know all the dogs in her vertical pedigree have passed all their testing (all the ones we have tested anyway which is A LOT)!

Petunia and Freya are the twins of the litter, they went to imprint training together as puppies and have really become SwissRidge’s thing 1 and thing 2.  They are best friends and do everything together. They are almost identical in looks and personality. Petunia is a perfect mix of her parents. She is fun, confident and playful like Grommet and loving and sweet, with a sensitive side like Sedona. Petunia is the kind of dog that could be placed with any family. Although she can be extremely outgoing at times and requires a good amount of exercise she also knows when it is time to relax and is happy to lay down and be pet. When we take her out of trail walks she hops through the fields like a rabbit. It is especially comical when the hay field has grown 2 feet and she leaps through the hay like she has spring on her feet. She reminds all of us at the kennel of Tigger the tiger. She is an extremely happy dog and never has a down day. She always wants to play with anyone that will play with her. If one dog or person will not play she politely moves on to see if someone else will play with her. She will always brighten your day as she is so full of love and happiness. On pack walks she is often found tagging along with the people just slightly behind or ahead. If she gets too far ahead with the pack she is always the first to come back and check in. Petunia recently had her first litter of puppies and was an incredible first time mom. She kept her puppies clean and well fed and was extremely loving and protective over them.
