Meet The Bonne Vie Family

Our family is the heart of everything we do—six children, fourteen grandchildren, and a lifetime shaped by love, resilience, and the joy of opening our home to others. As former foster parents and an adoptive family, we’ve learned that love grows best when it’s shared generously. That belief has guided our lives, our parenting, and now, our purpose at Bonne Vie Poodles.

Poodles have been woven into our story from the very beginning. I grew up with them at my side, learning responsibility, empathy, and the quiet companionship only a poodle can give. Their gentle nature, sharp minds, and non‑shedding coats make them extraordinary partners, but to us, they have always been more than that—they are family.

Our devotion to dogs extends far beyond breeding. Throughout our entire adult lives, we have rescued dogs from shelters, believing every dog deserves safety, dignity, and a family to call their own. That lifelong commitment to compassion shapes the way we raise every Bonne Vie puppy.

Now, in this season of life, our mission is simple and deeply personal: to share this extraordinary gift of joy, connection, and companionship with our Bonne Vie families. Every puppy we raise is nurtured with intention, purpose, and heart so they can go on to enrich the lives of the families who welcome them home.
