Home of the infamous "Coffee Poodles"
Lady Espresso and her pups, Lady Mocha and Sir Biscotti (our stud), have become somewhat notorious in the Seattle area as Bob pulls up to the
drive-thru Starbucks in our area to buy our coffee drinks. Now he is frequently asked, "Are these the three coffee dogs?,
or "Are these those coffee poodles?"
It all started back in the early 80's when Val named her poodle "Cappuccino". He was a very light brown color with a white tummy and reminded Val of the Cappuccinos she had enjoyed in San Francisco on a business trip. We purchased a beautiful black female poodle to be a companion for Cappuccino and named her "Espresso." When they had their first litter of puppies the coffee names began. After our beloved Espresso passed away at 15 years of age, we purchased a jet black puppy and named her "Lady Espresso of Angle Lake" and the coffee names continued. We kept Mocha and Biscotti from her first litter. Now with the abundance of coffee drinks available, picking names is a lot easier and more fun. We named two puppies from the second litter (2006) "Macchiato" and "Frappuccino," and their new owners decided to keep the names.
From Spressi's third litter (2007), two pups were named "Raspberry Mocha" and "Chai" by their owners. From Spressi's 4th litter puppies were named Kona, Mochaccino and Bellaccino. And one of the puppies Biscotti fathered was named "Java".
We decided to retire Spressi (after 4 litters with a total of 18 puppies), but we kept two puppies from her last litter to continue this excellent line. Lady Mochaccina
and Lady Bellaccino are both beautiful poodles (fathered by a champion) who have completely stolen our hearts. And we purchased a beautiful and sweet chocolate poodle named Lady
Cinnamon Dolce (her mother is a champion) to breed with Sir Biscotti.
