I feel Vic-Tori puppies are extra special. I believe in breeding quality not quantity and believe that I breed some of the best, breeding only one litter each year or so. Breeding this way gives me the time to carefully plan each breeding with pedigree analysis and genetic testing. This also gives me plenty of time to give lots and lots of hands on love, care and attention to each and every puppy that is born.

The moment you take your puppy home with you, you automatically become a member of the Vic-Tori family! I not only ask for, but solicit stories, photo's and regular updates as you and your puppy enjoy your very special journey together. Here are a few members of the Vic-Tori family that would like to share a bit of their journey with you.

Guster" is the pride and joy of Jeff and Sally and lives in Minnesota. This special guy is the son of Jewel and Charles and was born March 28, 2008. He is very affectionate to his family and also very fond of his daily routine (he has been known to throw a fit if anything in his routine changes). When he plays in the yard he loves to run at top speed and in circles around his family occasionally darting directly at them then veering away! It appears he is trying to set some sort of speed record and at the same time keep his family thoroughly amused and on their toes. Guster also likes to watch TV (he must get this from his Mother). I love it that Jeff sends me periodic updates on Guster's progress and antics. Guster is quite a fun little character!

Here is handsome "Henry" also a Jewel and Charles son and littermate to "Guster" seen above.

Henry is living the good life with Mom Debi and family in Chesterfield. Debi says that what her family really loves most about Henry is that he is so affectionate (a typical Vic-Tori trait). He is very smart and training has gone well with the exception of the command "come" as Henry sometimes feels this is negotiable. He loves to play with his toys, his favorite being a stuffed Gorilla which he also loves his family to throw so he can eagerly bring it back to them. He has a blanket that he carries around the house, loves people and is always interested in what everyone is doing. He also loves to romp and play with other dogs. And as no surprise to me, Debi tells me that Henry loves to watch TV! Debi also tells me that people often comment on Henry's proud demeanor and the beautiful way he carries himself!
Another typical Vic-Tori trait!

Meet Percy, littermate to both Guster and Henry (above). Percy is a lucky member of the McCutcheon family. Percy entered the family as the second standard poodle with much older "big brother" Jackson being the first. Percy and Jackson have become good buds. They love to wrestle and play in the yard together even though Percy can run circles around Jackson!

The McCutcheons tell me that Percy is really loving and has a very, very sweet personality. He likes to watch Animal Planet on TV but also seems to be a huge fan of college basketball! I am not sure who his favorite team is though. Percy loves to ride in the car with his family, and loves to play outside even when the weather is on the chilly side.
