Our grandmother, renowned breeder Jean Lyle's contribution to the world of standard poodles has been an inspiration to both my brother Greg Lyle and myself, Catherine Talbot. We have drawn on her Wycliffe pedigree of top winning black champions, to develop our NightsEcho breeding program.

We are a small home-based hobby kennel located on the beautiful Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, a 40-minute ferry ride from Vancouver.

Exceptional temperament with a sweet, biddable nature, superb conformation and deep 'black as night' colour - these are the desired qualities of a NightsEcho poodle.

Extensive research into pedigrees and health histories coupled with current health testing play a key role in our breeding program.

We are dedicated to raising healthy, well-adjusted dogs that excel in the conformation and obedience ring but more importantly in being cherished members of their families.
