Phoebe
Ironstone’s Foundation Dam | The Lady
Verified Poodle Lineage
The Confident Companion
A Bright and Steady Foundation Phoebe is the heartbeat of our Miniature Poodle line. While many Poodles are known for being "high-drive," Phoebe brings a refreshingly steady and confident energy to the program. She is remarkably self-assured—demonstrating great social confidence when interacting with older dogs and a natural desire for human partnership. Her temperament is centered on precision and companionship, making her the ideal dam for producing stable, family-oriented offspring.
