Our cats- the tabby is Marcel, the white one is Clawdette
Hi Mick,
Your little girl has some outstanding dogs on her fathers side. Her great-great-great grand father was the first golden to recieve the highest tracking degree awarded in the history of goldens. His name was Bret (Am/Can CH Golden Pine Dustrax Maverick CDX TDX RE OS CGC Can CD) and lived a long, fun filled life (just died recently at almost 14). I know his owner and met Bret many times. That was one incredible golden because he did everything. And her pedigree from the mom's side is even more impressive. BIS, BISS/AM/MEX/AMS/WC CH Sheffield-Ducat's Spellbound SDHF,OS (call name "Strider") was probably one of the most honored goldens in the last 15 years. So I know her pedigree to some degree. Lots of her grand, great grand, etc. lived long lives. By the pedigree I can tell where she gets her great color...the Aspenglo dogs are lighter. Actually, your dogs pedigree leads back to Birnam Wood which is true for many. Interesting.

Janice - Wow, thanks! Jan (the breeder) told us that Margot's longevity pedigree was "awesome." We were very lucky to find Stormy Point. Margot's coat is extremely thick and curly. If she saw her, I bet Jan would be regretting her decision not to keep Margot for show/hunter! You should see her move on the leash. She took to it like a natural....
Keep posting pics of your sweeties.
Cheryl, what cute pictures of your 'babies'!
Clawdette- fantastic name! :p
It's gonna be a three-dog night for me tonight. I just brought home Sammy, my new puppy. My vet's office manager called today and said they had an 8-month old puppy who had been seized by Animal Control because his stupid owners had left him in a tarp-covered crate in the back yard when they went away for a weekend.
Knowing that I've had 5 cockers, and spent enough to buy the veterinarian a boat or two, she called Animal Control and said I'd provide a wonderful home for him, and they said I could have him. So now I do!
Here he is--8 months old, almost 19 pounds, very sweet. Not sure what I've gotten myself into as it's been 13 years since I've had a puppy. (Sorry about the eyes--he won't slow down enough to get a better picture.)

Oh my goodness, DB!!! A new puppy!!!
How exciting.
And terrifying!!!
:eek:
I know you will give him a wonderful home. Congrats and best of luck.
And extra pets and ear rubs to Ruby and AJ.
We decided it was time to get a friend for our lovely Golden Fergus.
His new mate is called Gatsby and is a flat coated retriever.
They are getting along really well and keep us all amused with their antics. We are so happy with our new little guy.
Napping together.:)
PUPPIES, PUPPIES, PUPPIES!! Congratulations on your new babies. Sammy and Gatsby are sweetness in fur coats.
My advice---invest in plenty of bitter apple!
Please post plenty of photos so we can see them as they grow up.
:) Awww, Puppy Love. Puppy smell (when they're fairly clean) :p
Congradulations Treehawk and Divingbiker on the new additions to your families! May puppy silliness forgive puppy accidents. :D
Trekhawk---OMG, what a cutie! Thanks for sharing!
I still call my 2 now 1+ year olds "the kittens". It has been a great 1+year watching them grow and of course them being kittens.
And puppies are so darn cute!
Have fun w/ him!
Our rescue adopted kitty Suki is likely around 3 years old, but we call her 'baby' because she totally acts like a kitten- rampaging and 'wilding' around the house all day just like a little kitten, sleeping with her belly up, etc. Her personality is just baby-ish, that's all. :p
Oh, tulip! Look at Shiloh! You can just see the intelligence in that dog's eyes!! What a beauty! :)
And the new puppies are both adorable! Congrats DB and TH!!
Shilow would make a great agility dog. Me thinks.Quote:
