Why Retriever's?
A Loyal, Loving and Working Breed.
A great question, anybody who has spent time with a Retriever will come to know why. If you are looking to take in a puppy or dog and are still deciding on a breed, chances are that you have heard good things about them.
Griff, A Quality Friend
Golden Retrievers have always been in our close family, always affectionate and playful so they were never far from our thoughts. Our working line interests stemmed from seeing a fiery red dog run some ground at a gundog working test. Although at the time we were competing in a Cocker trial we were smitten and blown away with the ability and gentleness of the breed which led us to Griff “Quernmore Stanley” son of Echobrook Dexter.
Griff changed our perception of what a Retriever should be like, he’s extremely capable at working in the field. He’s fast, always motivated, always ready for the next task. Super lovable.
