When we got to your place and you let all the dogs loose, I really enjoyed seeing and interacting with all you great dogs. I just wanted you to know that Copper was the reason I agreed to get another pup. As I sat down at your place and watched all the pups playing, copper kept running up to me. She kept sitting between my legs as I pet and talked to her. She was such a loving dog! It'sbecause of her temperment and loving ways that helped me to breadk down that barrier I had built up and let another dog into my heart. In fact, if I had been given the opporrtunity, I would have bought Copper on the spot! That day I fell in love with Copper and wanted one of her pups. Abby has Copper's energy, agility and spirit.

Thank you so much for what you do! Abby is everything that we had hoped for. She's a great dog and is a great example of Copper's Spirit.

Copper produced such a beautiful dog. She is a perfect specimen of a Golden.

Things are going very well.. The first time the vet saw her he commented that he can tell she is a very assertive dog, and he's right, but she's also sweet, smart and cute as can be. The kids all love her, and our older dog tolerates her. I actually think our older dog is glad to have her here.

She should be a good hunter, she loves the smell of pheasants and chukars. She loves to chew any and everything and can be mischievious at times. For a lab, she like to roll over and have her chest scratched. She is also a social butterfly who wants to meet everyone she sees and socialize with other doggies.

She got her CGC at 8 months of age and started showing in agility at about 3 yrs. of age. She recently received her 1st AKC excellent title! Her name is Tully AX,OAJ, OAP, OJP, CGC

Leia is loving and gentle and an ideal family/suburban pooch. Leia loves going fo drives, walks, and is very good around other dogs. She LOVES meeting new people and can't wait to come show her affection when we get home. She is very popular with everyone with everyone and it is not uncommon for people to stop their cars in our neighborhood to admire her good looks. She learns quickly but occasionally she can be selective in obeying commands and firmness is needed at those tims (as with any Dog). She is 80+ lbs. but is sometimes lazy and I need to work her more to see if she will hunt something other than food such as pheasants, she is a compulsive chewer when she is lonely but all in all is an ideal family dog and rarely barks un-necessarily.

Gus is doing well and to tell you how much we enjoy him. Thanks.

Cooper is a wonderful addition to our family. He has earned a number of commands as well as to catch and to retrieve various toys. He is good with our Chihuahua, at least he hasn't broken him yet. He's bell trained at the door for potty issues. He's good with our cats. Basically, he's everything we were looking for in a puppy. He's happy and affectionate and eager to please.

The hunting one was taken at the end of Nov. on a goose hunt(posted on website). The geese were too big for Bailey to retrieve, but the one I shot ran and she went and ran it down! At least she wasn't afraid of it. Mitchell and I went out pheasant hunting a few times behind our house, but didn't have any luck. A few hens but no roosters. We hope to go out west early spring goose hunting in March. That would be a good experience for her early in the year!

Bailey is doing great! I don't think she is going to be as bis as I had hoped, but what she lacks in size I think she makes up in desire.

Drake is growing sooooooo fast and keeps us very busy. He is about 40 pounds right now and like you said "all legs". He loves going to the dog park and playing with other dogs. He is a very good dog.
