Welcome to our website. We hope through these pages we will be able to show you our love and dedication for the Golden Retriever breed. We are located just South of Richmond, two hours South of the Nations Capital (Washington D.C.) and two hours from Virginia Beach.
We are active in Conformation events (dog shows) in both the USA & Canada. Our dogs are our personal companions first and foremost, and show dogs second. They sleep on the couch, swim in the pool and are a huge part of our every day lives.
Our love affair with Goldens began in 1998 but I have always been involved in showing dogs. Though he died before I was born, my grandfather bred and showed dogs in Canada, so I guess it was in my blood and not so unusual that I was always able to find my way to dog shows even as a young girl. After moving to the States in 1991 I was once again drawn to the world of dog shows and with the purchase of a German Shepherd Dog, I was again participating in the hobby I loved.
As a members in good standing of The Golden Retriever Club of America, Potomac Valley Golden Retriever Club, and the Florida Gulf Coast Golden Retriever Club we adhere to the COE (code of ethics) set forth as a guide for breeders. All of the dogs we breed [or breed to] obtain all of the clearances recommended by the GRCA (Golden Retriever Club of America) including but not limited to, OFA cleared hips, elbows and hearts as well as yearly CERF clearances. |
