The Storm Litter
Raiju × Joel
A repeat of the pairing that gave us our beloved Samhain Litter, and Raiju's final litter before her well-earned retirement.
The Pairing
For Raiju's final litter, we returned to a proven match: our thunder-beast dam Raiju bred to International GCHG CH Tivin Kaylen Magic Dance OA OAJ DCAT GCHS, call name Joel. This was a repeat of the same pairing behind our Samhain Litter, a combination that gave us two litters of exceptional quality and temperament. We couldn't be happier to carry Raiju's storm-cloud spirit forward one more time!
The Dam — Raiju
Raiju is our blue brindle thunder beast, named for the legendary lightning creature of Japanese folklore. A Medical Alert Service Dog and Certified Therapy Dog herself, she has produced show dogs, service dogs, therapy dogs, and wonderfully spoiled companions across her litters. The Storm Litter is her final gift to our program before retirement. Meet Raiju →
The Sire — Joel
Joel is International GCHG CH Tivin Kaylen Magic Dance OA OAJ DCAT GCHS, a phenomenal standard poodle whose structure, drive, and temperament made him the perfect match for Raiju a second time. Meet Joel →
What This Pairing Produces
As with their Samhain Litter, we expect this proven Raiju × Joel pairing to carry forward:
Conformation Prospects — show-quality puppies with correct structure and breed type.
Sporting Prospects — athletic puppies with drive for performance sports.
Therapy & Service Prospects — stable temperaments suited for assistance and therapy work.
