Mainely Standards

I was lucky enough to have gotten one of these beautiful babies! Kevin/Steve is such a love bug. His temperament is the sweetest. He just wants to be with you. And what a clown he is. Has us all laughing! Can’t wait to get him into training class and see him be the best Poodle he can be. Carrie is wonderful to work with and her knowledge of this breed is amazing. She instills the sweetest temperament in her babies!!! Love my big crazy nut ball!!!

Carrie was great to work with and her poodles are all amazing. We got Jasper 3 weeks ago and he has been an absolute joy. I took him on my kayak and he was great. He’s very smart, curious and adventurous. We are hoping to start puppy school soon with the goal of becoming a Therapy Dog later. His temperament is perfect. Such a love.

Carrie was absolutely amazing. We got our first poodle December of 2022 and Carrie took the time and kept our pup longer because we were just waiting for our house to be ready. Kya is the most beautiful girl, super calm and the sweetest pup. I would 100% recommend Mainely standards!

Carrie was fabulous to work with! She gave the puppies lots of attention and care to get them ready for their homes. And, I appreciated the puppy cam she set up; my fifth grade students and I checked in each day to see how they were progressing. Such fun! We absolutely love our sweet poodle, Josie! She’s spunky, smart, and seems to have a funny sense of humor. Such a ball of love too!

We had such an amazing experience working with Carrie at Mainely Standards! She was able to match us with the perfect puppy - exactly the personality and temperament that we asked for in a dog! We have been so pleased with her breeding and disposition! Carrie communicated often with updates, answers to our questions, pictures, and videos. It made it easy for us to help our kids anticipate and prepare for the arrival of our puppy. I would recommend this breeder to anyone looking for a quality poodle and a great experience with a breeder! The experience is like buying a quality dog from a friend who loves the litter, rather than from a breeder just trying to turn out dogs. It was a lovely experience! Well worth the distance for us to get a dog from Carrie! Thank you!
