We breed intentionally, raise with care, and stand behind every puppy we produce — whether destined for the show ring or a beloved companion home.
Highview Standard Poodles is located in Michigan’s Thumb region, north of Lapeer and approximately 90 minutes northeast of Detroit.
Breeder Connie Hutchins has been involved with Poodles since the mid-1970s, with experience in all three varieties. For more than five decades, her focus has been on Standard Poodles, emphasizing correct structure, stable temperament, and intelligence consistent with the AKC breed standard.
Highview-bred Poodles have earned AKC titles in conformation, obedience, agility, and Fast CAT. Parents used in our breeding program are fully health tested, with results publicly available through OFA.
Puppies are raised in our home with daily interaction and early socialization. At eight weeks, they receive a veterinary wellness exam, begin vaccinations, and are microchipped. Puppies typically go to their new homes at approximately nine weeks, with veterinary approval.
