Judge Michael Gadsby’s critique of London from Poodle Club of America 2025

"Winners Dog and later Best of Winners - Aviator’s Mind The Gap.  

This charismatic white boy demanded attention the moment he stepped into the Open Dog class.   He really is a spectacular specimen of the breed, combine this quality with a flawless display of presentation and handling made him impossible to beat in class males.  Masculine, great pigmentation. Super eye expression. His carriage and deportment are superb. Great topline and another perfect tailset and shelf.  His excellent silhouette is maintained perfectly in motion.

On Friday, he continued an excellent performance making him a contender for the variety."

​

Judge Dr Donald Sturz Jr's critique of London from Poodle Club of America 2026 

"Best of Opposite Sex to a stallion of a dog with a commanding presence. He has a handsome, long, clean, detailed head set on good reach of neck. Nicely bodied with good ribbing, good bone, tight well-knuckled feet, and muscled quarters. He has a dense coat of good texture. In motion he blends athleticism with carriage that took full advantage of the large ring. Free standing he owns the ground he stands on. His handler has a beautiful connection with this dog and very adeptly showcases him thrilling me as well as the crowd."

Judge Mr Scott Wolfe's critique of London from Poodle Club of America 2026  

"Best of Opposite Sex was no less challenging, lining up starting with the BOS Standard, CH Aviator's Mind The Gap. This lovely headed dog has a nice finish to his face, good feet and a striking outline. He has a masculine presence with elegance and not a hint of coarseness. The BOS Miniature, ByRequest Double Dare, has an outline that I loved and was beautiful standing on his own. BOS Toy, Parfait Por Favor, is a beautifully shaped dog with a tremendous outline. He is a consummate show dog with a wonderful presence.

Although the Standard on first moving was a little like a thoroughbred out of the gate, when the handler was asked for nice, easy movement, he complied. Each time the dog moved he improved, settling into a balanced and collected side picture. The lesson, children, is that if such a request is made, not doing so will almost always insure you lose – and doing so, who knows, you may just win BOS to this lovely Standard."

​

 London is available at limited stud to approved, quality females. A proven sire, London has already made his mark in the whelping box, having sired three American Champions with others well on their way to their American Championships.  We are excited to see what the future holds for this talented young sire and are selectively offering him to exceptional females that complement his pedigree, structure, movement, temperament, and overall quality.  For breeding inquiries, please contact us to discuss London and potential breeding arrangements.
