Hallslake Hiccup (The subject of the 'Merle' colouring in Poodles is topical! The Kennel Club don't accept the colour as part of the breed standard, and it is without doubt that the colour must have been infused many generations back by crossing another breed to the poodle bloodline to gain the markings, however, they are now fairly well established within the breed. Late last year we served a totally stunning merle poodle bitch for a customer (see the last picture in his album to see Mum) with our chocolate boy Willy Wonka. The litter which followed was interesting to me as I have never had anything to do with Merle before, and the puppies were really shockingly gorgeous!! As a result I just couldn't resist keeping the pick of the litter, a chocolate merle boy who we have appropriately named 'Hiccup! We just adore him, he's hilarious, bold, brave, playful and absolutely gorgeous in his unusual markings! So here is our new boy 'Hiccup'!)
