I don't have to keep the secret any longer!!
Ivy was awarded the 2023 Dick Sampson Memorial Trophy at the GRCA National Specialty last night. I am so pleased and humbled by this award which would not have been possible without the skilled guidance of Rick Stawski of Fine Line Retrievers. Thank you Rick and good girl Ivy!!!

"If love alone could have saved you, you would have lived forever."
I'm grateful Sparky and I were able to spend his last day together doing a few things he loved. I'll miss you, my bestest best boy!

My friend Cathie Chouinard Hendren made this beautiful mosaic of Bella. It captured Bella perfectly. I just love it! Check her out!!

My last boy is available. At 9.5 weeks old, he is a bold, curious pup. Message me for details. Pic below caught just before he leaped.

Real life...my greasy babies are sacked out after breakfast and visit with mama Tula. Today they get to move into their Big Kid quarters with more room, litter pans and fun things to explore. More later!!

Truth!

Tula and Sparky are working on their last litter. Pups will be expected around December 4 and will be available to their new homes the end of January. Since k9data is currently off-line, I will post their health clearances later today. Please spread the word!

Anyone who watched Sparky run field trials or hunt tests could not deny his marking ability. He was a stylish retriever with a lot of heart. His field trial career held great promise until an injury required him to retire. These days he is master of the couch and my best little buddy. If you search "Sparky" on my FB page you can watch videos of him performing at Master tests with me. The success we had there was all due to him. I was a complete newbie running upper level stakes and he was a great teacher.
Tula, niece of FC Ike and grand-daughter of AFC FC Stanley, is attentive, biddable and especially loves the obedience games. She just earned her Rally Champion title and will be back to obedience in 2023. She also has videos available (mostly Rally) if you search her name on my FB page.
This will be Sparky and Tula's fourth and final litter together. Pups from their previous litters are performing well in various disciplines and they are good-looking, driven dogs. Priority will be given to proven performance homes, but loving homes are a requirement for all. Contact Jean @ [email protected] for more information.

Ivy, Bella's daughter and Sparky's half-sister, is now Red N Ready Learning To Fly QA2! Many thanks to everyone who helped make this possible!

Bella's now old and gray, Summer is a Master Hunter in Florida and Tula is still my goofball 🙂

11/29/2021

Two boys available for consideration. They will be ready after December 12. Please email [email protected]

There are 5 FC and/or AFC, 4 QAA or QA2 and 9 MH in the first three generations of this pedigree alone. These pups will excel at the retriever games!

Anyone who has watched Sparky run cannot deny his marking ability. He is a stylish retriever with a lot of heart. We are sad that his field trial career was cut short due to an injury.

Tula, niece of FC Ike and grand-daughter of AFC FC Stanley, has accomplished much after starting her career relatively late in life at 2 years (my fault). She is biddable and especially loves the obedience games. If the stars align, we do plan to run senior level tests this coming season.

This is Sparky and Tula’s third litter together. Reports on their previous pups’ progress have been favorable so far and I’ve had the pleasure to see a few of them at hunt tests this past summer. They are good-looking, driven dogs. Priority will be given to proven performance homes, but loving homes are a requirement for all.
