Welcome to Finnesse Esoteric Poodles! Our website is undergoing changes. As it evolves, please be patient and come back again to see new pictures and information. The Finnesse kennel name is the property of the breeder, Linda Pietarinen and was established approximately 15 years ago. A couple of years ago we registered the Esoteric kennel name so we can use either or both prefixes when registering our puppies.
Our foundation bitch was owner handled from start to finish. Conformation was of primary importance in the early years as was building diversity and, screening for genetic diseases and disorders such as hip displaysia, vonWillebrand's, eye problems, sebaceous adenitis, and thyroid disease. Now, we are also focusing on temperament and have introduced an imported bloodline.
