I wouldn't think it is too old to start breeding your poodle but you must make sure that she is given the all clear from your Veterinarian and that you follow your Vets advice about breeding her. I have 3 poodles myself but mine are pet only. Also make sure she is comfortable with whom she is breeding with, introduce the dogs first and see if they take to each other. Also read up on everything you can about breeding your dog, birthing of the puppies and have everything you will need to hand and your Vet will prove invaluable in this area. Hope this helps.
erm i would probably say that you could start breeding from 1 to 5 so yeah i guess so
and your poodle is quite old so make it comfortable with who she is breeding with

How long is a miniature poodle expected to live?
12 to 14 years is the expected life span of a miniature poodle. I know that there are exceptions to every rule, but I have a miniature poodle (22 pounds) that is 17 years old and still getting on quite well. He has a little arthritis in his hips, can't see too well due to cataracts and his hearing has diminished, but the little guy still loves to ride on the golf cart, bark at the ducks and has a great appetite. Also still very affectionate. His favorite meal? A Sonic Junior Deluxe Burger, which he has 3 times a week. Hey, at his age, what the heck. I highly recommend a poodle for most considering a dog. There is a stigma out there that poodles are little yappers that old ladies carry around. NOT SO. I have had two of them, and they are what you make them. Mine are quite macho little guys that catch Frisbees, love to run, great watchdogs, great travelers, extremely smart and easy to train. If they have a fault, it might be their initial attitude toward small children. Mine have been slow to accept them and a little nervous around them. Given time to get to know them, they love them and even get protective of them.
