Linda & Richard welcome you to our cyber home, please stay a while and browse and we hope you enjoy your visit.
We are not a large kennels, in fact all our dogs live in the house and apart from the show rings they all enjoy a happy healthy free environment.
We are both professional groomers and we own a busy Grooming Salon in Bletchingley plus the salon at home and a further large Pet Store plus Grooming Salon..
Richard is deeply involved in the grooming competitions and organizes many championship competitions, he also helps with the Junior KC in their activities and is a member of the Kennel Club.
Linda is a Championship Show judge and has given CC in both Standards and Miniatures.
Our aim is to breed healthy, happy intelligent Poodles and we only breed the occasional litter to continue our homebred stock. ( Breed Standard )
We started showing Standards with a beautiful white bitch which we were lucky enough to buy from Mrs Elaine Gillam of the "Larling Poodles" this bitch was later to become our first champion "Ch. Larling Crystal" She was a prolific winner notching up multiple BOB'S and Group wins here in the UK.
We are campaigning our latest Champion "Ch. Crystalar Turn of the Century" Maurice has multiple B.O.B's to his credit and his greatest achievement to date is B.O.B at Crufts 2006 under the respected Poodle Specialist Mrs. Nathan.
We have at the moment a very interesting litter sired by the Swedish import Ch. Huffish Another Point of View, this is the first time we have used a black on our all white stock, but as he carries a white gene it has paid off with the resulting litter of 4 blacks and 4 whites, so we are very anxious to see the final results.
After many years of only owning Standards we had the opportunity of importing to this country, a beautiful white miniature from Spain, he is Int Ch. Orgasmical of Shikarah's bred by David Allan & Javier Blanco owners of the well known "Shikarah Kennels" in Madrid. Clyde as he is called at home has done extremely well in the UK show rings, with one CC and 3 R.CC to date, one of which he won at Crufts under the renowned Australian judge Mr Robert Curtis. His son, from our first litter "Crystalar Razzle Dazzle" is now doing extremely well having won all his junior classes to date including a CC at the tender age of 13 months.
2007 proves to be an exciting and busy year for the Crystalar Poodles and we look forward to seeing our next generation of Standards and of course, our first homebred Miniature in the rings.
From here we thank all our friends who have helped us along this long and winding road, all the judges who have thought so highly of our stock and last but not least, we thank Linda's parents for their love and invaluable help.
