LAWPDOODLE KENNEL

My name is Tina Law. We are a Christian Family who returned to my husband's (Rich), family farm in 1998 from Carroll County, Maryland where we lived after we were married in 1989. We have two children, Matthew 18, and Lisa 14. Rich and his Dad, and with help of family, operate 240 acres of farmland and between 40 and 50 Angus Cows, 2 Bulls and calves. I owned two horses when I met Rich, and despite being raised 20 minutes outside of Washington, D.C., always wanted the Country Life. My horses were the closest thing I had even though I had to board them away from my home. On February 14, 2008, I lost my very first horse, Tango, at the age of 31. I owned him for 24 years. We love our animals. I had various exotic pets when I was younger, but both my husband and I share a mutual love for dogs. This love led us into the addition to our farm business, Lawpdoodle Kennel, a reputable, licensed kennel in West Virginia. We started with the idea of Doodles (Goldendoodles and Labradoodles). However, through our first doggy purchase, we surprisingly fell in love with the Standard Poodle. We will continue to breed AKC Purebred quality Standard Poodles as part of our breeding program for the love of the breed. I cannot say enough about these fabulous dogs...and yes....they are DOGS....not those "fuzzy creatures" you see prancing around the show ring (okay..so they are sometimes, and many earn their right to be beautiful). I never thought my husband would let anything with the name "Poodle" on our property (me neither!), however, he and I have been smitten by this breed of dog. Take time to researchthe vast history of this breed and you will be surprised they are not always about those "pretty" poofy pooches you see in the dog shows. They were originally bred as hunting dogs and water retrievers. Did you know......their "odd" hair cuts (which have "changed" over the years) originally were designed to assist them while swimming, retrieving and hunting?.....ummmmmm....guys, are you listening? And talk about the most fabulous family pet. Just go to my testimony pages and see for yourself!

We still have Doodles, too!

We are currently working our colors to include Brown & White Parti's, Red's, Chocolates, Blacks and Apricots. We will be working toward multi-gen chocolate and white Parti Labradoodles as well in our breeding program.

We welcome you to come and visit us to see our Farm and Kennel (Doggy Manor!). Our Kennel has been completed with 8 units and 4 puppy boxes including, runs, heat, electric and water and a bath and grooming area! Also featuring separate large yard areas for dogs to have run in all day long. Ongoing improvements and changes always! Check our page "Doggy Manor" for pictures and updates. We look forward to hearing from you and maybe the opportunity to meet you! May God Bless You and Your Family, In Christ.

This is our home. To the left you will see my former Quilt Studio, soon to become our Puppy Nursery. It is like a small home, with a bathroom, gas fireplace, carpeting, ceramic tile and lots of windows. It is used as a "Hunting Cabin" during the Thanksgiving Holiday week and Hunting Season. It also works very well for "puppy pick-up" for our new puppy families. To the right behind our home is the Puppy Manor. We welcome anyone wishing to tour our "Home" for our Four-legged family members. We've had some neighbors joke that if they have a spat with their spouse, could they temporarily take up residence in our Doggy House? Yep....our doggies have it pretty good!
