Meet Stormy!  Stormy is an absolute snugglebug with dark eyes and expressions that will melt your soul.  She has a sweet, gentle and confident personality that enables her to be friendly without being pushy.  We expect she would excel in AKC Canine Good Citizen or AKC classes AKC Trick Training classes.  Stormy also wants everyone to know she graduated from Elementary Dress-Up School with an A+.  She'd like her prospective family to know that she prefers bright colors in her outfits because they accent her dark eyes well.  Her mother, Twinkle, is the personal dog of our 10-year-old daughter, so attending dress-up school was mandatory. She is vet checked, vaccinated, wormed, plus comes with a 1 year genetic health guarantee provided by her breeder.


Stormy is 100% clear on the genetic health panel, including CDDY & CDPA (more info on this below), which is very rare and difficult to achieve when breeding Cocker Spaniels and Miniature & Toy Poodles, and extremely rare for a micro & teacup sized poodle crosses.  With these genetics, Stormy and her siblings will have ideal conformation. Thus, Stormy and her siblings will have ideal conformation. We estimate Stormy to grow to between 6.5 to 7.5 pounds or so.  He weighed a hefty 2.2 lbs at her vet check when he was 7 weeks old; at 11 weeks of age Stormy checks in at 2.9 lbs. Her father is Tucker, an AKC Toy Poodle weighing 5.5lbs.


Stormy and her siblings have also been well-started on socialization with bigger dogs as well as children.  Developmentally, pups only begin to understand inter-dog social patterns around 7.5 weeks of age.  We keep all of our small-breed dogs until at least 11 weeks of age for this reason - because nobody likes a small dog who behaves badly and starts trouble when around other dogs, then expects to always be rescued by its humans!  When small dogs are socialized with bigger dogs from a young age, they learn to pay attention to the social cues from other dogs they might otherwise be oblivious to.  We take pride in breeding dogs with sound minds, and great care with how they are socialized while in our care.  When you meet Stormy and her siblings, you'll experience and understand how special they really are.


Info on CDDY & CDPA: 
Chondrodystrophy (CDDY) is an autosomal dominant gene that causes Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), and can also affect the dog's height.  Dogs with two copies of CDDY will likely develop a more severe manifestation of Intervertebral Disc Disease.  Dogs who carry IVDD with one or two copies of the CDPA gene are likely to develop an even more severe manifestation of IVDD.


Chondrodysplasia (CDPA) is also an autosomal dominant gene.  CDPA is the gene responsible for shorter limbs in certain breeds such as the Basset Hound, Dachshund, and Corgi.  The presence of CDPA alone (without IVDD) in cockapoos is more of a conformational issue and thus a matter of personal preference.  Cockapoos who carry one or two copies of CDPA will have disproportional height compared to length of spine.  Like CDDY, CDPA is a dose-dependent gene.  Dogs who have two copies of CDPA will have shorter limbs compared to dogs who have one copy of CDPA
