Welcome to Mountain Moon Poodles and Poms!
My youngest grandson, Gabe, and I.
Well hello there! My name is Dana Saltsman, I am the owner and breeder of Mountain Moon Poodles and Poms. My daughter Jandalen and I co-own and breed the Pomeranian portion of the business together. I live in Payson City Utah at the base of Loafer Mtn. with my three Pomeranian girls and my two male Standard Poodle boys. I find my peace in the mountains, my yard, my flowers gardens, organic vegetable gardens and my dogs. I have three grown children and 6 grandchildren. My life, and the lives of my furry family members are filled with the love of the outdoors. I spend as much time as a I possibly can with my children and grandchildren who share all my love for my pets and nature!

Here at MMPP, we believe that no matter how big, or small your choice of furry family companion, they can and will bring you and your family love, compassion, laughter, and joy. You may wonder why such a difference in the types of breeds I have chosen to raise. Well, my love of Standard Poodles began as a child. My grandparents had a beautiful black female named "Easter". As a little girl I would always be dressing her in my doll cloths, tolerating every minute of it, while she and I would play for hours. As a child, and now even more as an adult, I loved the unique look of the Standard, how they turn heads no matter where they go and how the breed is always recognized in a crowd. I was taken by the soft, curly non-shedding coat and how I could hug and love on "Easter" (a black dog) with my white shirt on and have it look spotless afterward. From there on, my love for the Standard Poodle breed only grew stronger, and I knew I would always have one by my side.
Through my entire life I've been raising dogs on and off including Rottweilers, Schnauzers and Shih-Tzu's. My love and compassion for pets must be genetic because all of my children and grandchildren have adopted this love as well.

One day my daughter Jandalen was telling me about her friends' little black female Pomeranian that she had just fallen in love with. The furry little body was so puffy and soft, like a little cotton ball with legs! The personality was so perky, loving and energetic that it just didn't seem that so much charisma could fit into such a tiny package! After thinking about it for quite some time, weighing the pro's and con's and listening to my daughter sing the breeds' praises, she finally talked me into the breeding program with the pomeranians, and I'm glad I did. There are definalty more risks with this breed as opposed to the Standard Poodle which is a much hardier breed, but, the benefits outweigh the risks and I knew that I would do everything for my little dogs to keep them safe, just as I have done for my big dogs, and this is EXACTLY what I expect of potential puppy owners.
