The Best of the Standard Poodles...


A quality Standard Poodle will have a calm disposition, strong conformation, intelligent personality, patience, and a desire to please. They are completely non- shedding, almost odor free, love the water and like to play hard. They can be quiet and make wonderful watch dogs for your family or they will sleep all day if you let them. The poodle is one of the most diversified dog I know.  For the families that think they want a Doodle you really need to meet a poodle and understand that all the other breeds(some kind of doodle ) just want the poodle.

so................Do the Poodle and Not the Doodle
We now offer natural Tails with that

These Puppies Are Our Family

Hillside Standard Poodles

              Hillside standard poodles is owned by Rachael &  Melbourne Sann. Over the years Rachael has been a care giver owning two NYS licensed children daycare centers, while raising her own family as well. Rachael enjoys spending her free time at the beach, going to the barn with the horses, and hanging out with the family.  Melbourne has served in the US Army, has always been an entrepreneur, and has two inventions and US patents.   Melbourne enjoys spending his free time going out west, hunting, and building things for the poodles and spending time at the pool with family.

           Together they have a passion to raise healthy beautiful standard poodle puppies for families.  Rachael & Melbourne wanted a family pet, but when their daughter Savana developed allergies to dogs they thought that would never happen.  They started their research and discovered the Poodle!

Almost 18 yrs ago they got their first poodle and it has been love ever since. 

Our daughter Savana is the reason we got our first standard poodle. Savana suffered very bad allergies and wanted a dog. I started my search and found the Poodle.  Benny and Savana are best friends. Savana helps with the breeding and raising the puppies. She has recently started to transport puppies for Hillside to families all over. She is a true puppy lover and it is so nice to have her as part of the team.

Our Daughter London 

She Just Loves Them!

London is now 12 and continues her passion for our puppies, she has trained for families and continues to work with her own poodle Wyatt & Winston. London has an act for animals and a passion to excel with them. She shows horses as well, plays soccer, and the rest of her time is spent doing what ever she can with the dogs. She will be doing agility training this winter. She loves puppies and is my biggest helper.

Our son Melby

 He loves to hang out with the puppies too!!

Melby is now 17. He enjoys being the Lacross goalie for our school in the spring, playing foot ball in the fall, and down hill skiing in the winter. In his free time he helps evaluate puppies and socialize them as they are growing. Melby helps with hillside looking great!  He is still looking for his forever poodle.

What a great helper!!
