Meet Luca - A Paloma Poodle Who Does It All

At Paloma Standard Poodles, we don’t just breed for beauty, we breed for brilliance, balance, and heart. Our dogs shine in the ring and excel in performance sports, proving that true excellence is more than skin deep.


One shining example of this philosophy is LUCA, bred by Paloma and owned and deeply loved by Anne St. George.


LUCA is a testament to what a well-bred standard poodle can achieve with the right breeding, training, and partnership.

A Title-Winning Machine

LUCA has already earned an astonishing 12 titles across multiple disciplines, demonstrating intelligence, athleticism, obedience, and that signature Paloma spirit. From the grace of the show ring to the intensity of the performance field, LUCA continues to impress judges and audiences alike.


Some of LUCA’s accomplishments include:


  • 🏅 Dock Diving - An exciting, high-energy sport where dogs run down a dock and leap into a pool to see how far they can fly.
  • ⚡ Fast CAT (Coursing Ability Test) - A timed 100-yard dash where dogs chase a lure in a straight line.
  • 🌀 Agility - In this fast-paced sport, dogs navigate obstacle courses that test their coordination, obedience, and focus.
  • 🎓 Obedience - Formal obedience trials test a dog’s ability to perform specific tasks with discipline and accuracy. 
  • 👃 Scent Work - A sport that taps into a dog’s powerful sense of smell.
  • ❤️ Certified Service Dog - Perhaps most impressive of all, LUCA is a fully trained and certified service dog. He provides essential support with calmness, reliability, and deep emotional connection—a true testament to the Standard Poodle’s temperament and trainability.


A Well-Rounded Companion


Beyond the ribbons and accolades, LUCA is first and foremost a beloved companion. His success is a reflection of the strong bond he shares with Anne and the thoughtful, purposeful breeding practices at Paloma Standard Poodles.


We believe that every dog we produce should be capable, confident, and cherished, whether in the winner’s circle or curled up at home.
