Hi Barb, I hope all is well with you. We celebrated Sofia’s (Jasmine/Captain) 1st birthday yesterday. She got two bones and new soft toy which is a treat because she Likes to chew them up or play tug of war with them rather than just Hold them and lick them! Sofia is so sweet and beautiful and has been a true blessing for us. Everyone continues to say that she is the most beautiful Golden they Have ever seen. Thank you for breeding such a wonderful dog. You may be hearing from us Again to adopt a brother or sister for Sofia! Regards, Karin and Michael
Hi Barb- Sorry we haven’t checked in for so long! Hilde is doing really well. (Ivy/Captain pup) She is a happy, happy girl. She is really well behaved and seems to almost anticipate commands before I give them. In this picture she had spent the weekend snow shoeing, going to the park and out and about around town. She loves to go with us when we do errands on the weekend. She LOVES to go to Chuck and Don’s the pet store. She often gets treats and always gets lots of love. When Hilde is the most tired and really wants to sleep she settles in on the corner of the couch with the pillows as shown in the picture. Good thing the couch is Golden Retriever colored! -Amy and Ray
Jewel's Litter
It has been VERY busy here! Jewel had her puppies Feb. 20. She had 10 babies! Four females, six males. On Feb. 25 Emmy had 7 puppies. Four females, three males. We have one female and three male puppies available in Jewel’s litter. They will be ready for their new homes April 10. We have one male puppy available in Emmy’s litter, which will be ready for their new homes April 16. Please fill out a puppy application if you are interested in adopting a pup from these litters.
Barb,
Well, I don’t think it’s the terrible twos. She’s awfully sweet. She did, however, discover that deep snow has its advantages. She noticed right away that the snow was deep enough that she could just walk right over the back fence, around the field, into the neighbor’s yard, and then back to the front gate to bark at Luca as though he should let her in. Congratulate Captain and Emmy. They made a beautiful girl. Here she is just about a week before February 17–which was her 2nd birthday. She can’t figure out why the ball won’t just roll downhill.

Dear Barb,
Here’s another photo of Annie (Emmy/Captain) and Reagan (Jasmine/Captain). They have so much fun playing together when they can. I can’t wait until the weather warms so they can spend more time outdoors.

Zoey is actually our daughter Kelly and son in law Nate’s dog. (from our blood lines) She lives in their home except when she is in her heat cycle or having babies. Kelly and Nate have two children, Isaac and Avery. Yesterday they came to see the babies and Isaac was so in love with them! He did not want to leave them, and Zoey was so good about letting him handle her babies! It is so sweet to watch Isaac with his dog. Zoey adores him and is so gentle. When he first came into the puppy pen, Zoey walked between Isaac and her babies, then she laid next to the pen with a proud look as if to tell Isaac “look what I did!” Avery was not as sure about the puppies, as they squirmed and squealed, she was happy just looking at this point!
Dear Barb,
While I am downloading some pictures, I have to send one to you.
Leo is a charmer, lover and people dog. He has lots of loving from Larry, Luke and I and can’t decide who he likes best. His new challenge is staying in the yard with his Pet Stop invisible fencing. We have had to turn it up several time and the neighborhood dogs and kids still are too tempting some times. Mostly he stays, though.
We love him and I am looking forward to better walking weather.
Greetings to Russ,
Cindy
