Hanna's puppies March 2015

My husband, Don, and I believe that Golden Retrievers are the perfect all around breed. The trainability and intelligence that are the hallmarks of this breed are all important because this is what enables the Golden Retriever to excel in so many endeavors. The gentleness and stability of  their temperaments make these dogs the perfect family pet. Our dogs  compete in Hunt Tests, Obedience, and Agility and are cherished members of our family and great hunting partners .

I am a lifelong dog owner and cannot remember a time that I did not

have at least one dog, usually more. Our first retriever was a Chocolate Lab but it didn't take long to fall in love with the beautiful Goldens that  some of our friends were training. I have participated in Obedience for years with my Smooth Fox Terriers but the Goldens are a completely different game. They are so biddable and they want to please so badly it almost feels like cheating when compared to the Terriers.

Training in any venue is fun because of their " can do " attitude and their intelligence.
