Walked away with her Dock Novice title today! I’m betting she’ll pick up her Junior title next time!

We’re helping out our friends at Lakehaven Golden Retrievers and doing a board and train for some of their available boys who are still looking for homes! These guys are SO stinking sweet, cute, and so so cuddly! They would make wonderful pets or even sport dogs! They’ll be hanging out with us until they find their new homes and working on some basic training. If you’d like to come meet them, let me know!

Racing into the spring and summer season! I cannot wait for warmer weather and the return of dog sports 🙌🏼

Tikka is a beautiful, talented, wicked smart and HUGE! Not even 6 months old yet and nearing 50lbs, already surpassing Kimber 🤪

We’ve got such an exciting spring and summer season planned for this special girl and I can’t wait to watch her grow and see all that she’ll accomplish!

My overall goal with Tikka is agility and we’ve been attending an ongoing puppy/ foundations class each week, I can tell agility will be her thing, she loves it! She loves using her brain, solving problems, and working together as a team!

In addition to our on going agility classes, we’re joining CGC class next week! So excited to continue working with his pup and begin to throw some titles behind her name!

Once thought to be useless and problematic digits, dew claw removal is a standard practice amongst North American breeders- it’s time for this outdated practice to stop! For the both the health, stability and safety of our dogs.

Removal of the dewclaws was thought to prevent possible injury but according to Life West Chiropractic College “Removing dewclaws routinely has consequences including an increased prevalence of injury to the rest of the body. In a study done on 3,801 agility dogs, it was recorded that ⅓ will experience more than a single injury in the course of their career. Of those injuries, 13-24% are injuries to the phalanges. Another study on 253 agility dogs showed that digit 5 was the most commonly injured digit while digit 1 (the dewclaw) was the least often injured. Increased injury to digits 1-4 were seen in dogs lacking front dew claws. Other injuries reported were to the shoulders, back, and neck.”

So you’ve brought home your new puppy! Now what?

Sometimes breeding better dogs means not breeding them at all!

2022 was a tough year and included some difficult decisions about the future. One of those decisions was to officially wash Poppy from our breeding program.

A number of reasons and factors went into making this decision but in the end, she’s not exactly what I’m wanting in terms of drive, intelligence, versatility, and most importantly: health. Producing healthy and stable minded dogs will always be my first priority as a breeder- and unfortunately, Poppy can’t contribute to that.

Coupled with some quirks, and a few health concerns, including a possible luxating patella, we made the decision to prevent further heartbreak in not only ourselves, but future puppy families, and decided to wash Poppy from our program.

She’s scheduled to be spayed in a couple and then we can focus on Therapy work uninterrupted by heat cycles!

So, we’re ringing in the new year with some changes, it’s tough to look at your dogs and realize their flaws aren’t just minor annoyances, but possible detrimental traits. In the end, I know this decision is the right one, the responsible one, and it allows Poppy to continue doing what she loves the most- working with kids!

So, cheers to 2023 - may it hold easier truths and less sleepless nights.

Merry Christmas from the Mountain Reign Family!

Today marks 3 months for Tikka and 7 months for Kimber!

It’s definitely been a wild ride raising two pups at once, Kimber was easy from the start and naturally picked up every little thing I taught her with minimal effort, I got lucky with that one and started praying for a more challenging puppy to come my way…

Then along came Tikka, who’s been the exact opposite of Kimber! She’s full of wild puppy energy, drive oozes out her ears and to top it all off, she’s definitely got a stubborn streak. She reminds me a lot of R***r as a puppy and although she’s giving me a run for my money, I am 100% here for it and loving every minute of it!

You’ll never learn what you’re made of with easy puppies, it’s the tough ones that show you just how far you’ve come and what you can achieve. So I’m soaking it all in and continuously learning right along with her, she’s going far and she’ll be unstoppable one day!

Al I want for Christmas is Kitty!

Just a baby Indie growing up! Excited to see where this girl goes and can’t wait to watch her break into sports this coming spring!

It’s time to officially introduce Uma ~ Wild is the Earley Wind of Mountain Reign ~ she is bred by Emma and R***r (she is also co-owned with MRR)

She is coming to us in hopes of being a competitive sports dog and a part of our breeding program.

She handled 14 hours of flights (thank you for getting us home) and airport shenanigans like she’s been doing it her whole life. There was a seamless transition into the pack after a well deserved nap for the both of us. She’s fitting in exactly how I hoped she would - Ascari is beyond happy and can’t get enough of her, Ezra is babying her and even shared her favorite ball (which Uma is currently hiding from her), Ila would rather be the center of attention (no surprise there) and Owyn is playful and so gentle with Uma.

This gorgeous girl is almost 1! They grow up so fast 🥺

03/06/2022

Exciting news! The R***r and Emma litter owned by LakeHaven Goldens ( Nampa, Idaho) has 3 puppies available and ready for new homes! 1 female and 2 males are looking for their forever homes! Give us a shout for more information!

Yay Poppy! CGC at just 6 months old! We are that much closer to reaching our goal of therapy work at 1 year!

10/31/2021

Happy Halloween from R***r! 🧡🍂

10/27/2021

Not sure there's anything this boy can't do! He ran his last FCAT with a top speed of 28.29 miles per hour! This puts him in the running for the 3rd fastest golden retriever in the nation! If R***r keeps this up, we'll be headed to the National Championships next year!

10/02/2021

R***R DID IT! He officially earned his Novice title in barn hunting! This crazy boy is an incredible hunter and absolutely crushed it this past weekend!

Headed to another FCAT in a week, time to earn more Qs!
