Payton was born September 25, 2008 and reunited with her devoted K-9 companion, Hester on February 1, 2024. Payton loved life whether it be going to the lakefront in Milwaukee or Madison when she and her family lived there, to getting a burger at a drive-thru or simply chilling with her family.

Payton was always game for a snack or having a meal with her mommy. She never wanted mom to eat alone. She loved meeting new friends; always chill.

She will be deeply missed by her feline companion, Marci and her mommy.

Payton was loved by all; so much so that some that did not like poodles before…..now like them.
