Pups were tested for clear/carrier status of Ichthyosis and PRA2. Some of our available males are completely Clear. No pups will be at risk of any of the known genetic disorders we can test for at this time, which include PRA-prcd, PRA1, PRA2, DM, SAN, DEB, MD, OI, NCL,and Ichthyosis.
This breeding offers a very low coefficient of inbreeding, an out-cross breeding. If you are a conscientious occasional breeder like ourselves and looking for certain genetics in a pup, please let us know!
Because of the outcross pedigree in this breeding, we anticipate some variation in temperaments. Pups may have the potential to be capable of hunting, hunt tests, conformation, agility, retrieving, scent work, or even service or therapy work as some of Bingley's progency and Roxy's siblings have become physical service dogs. Pups appear to be light to medium golden.
We anticipate a combination of coat colors, from light golden to medium. Roxy's coat is straight and soft. Bingley has a bit thicker coat with some wave. Hoping for some very pretty tails, a little more bone, good pigmentation, great temperaments and pleasing faces while remaining true to breed size with this much anticipated litter.
Both Roxy and Bingley have generations of hip, elbow, eye and heart testing.
Please note that we don't have a preference when it comes to breeding color, nor for breeding the "rare, white, English Cream golden retriever". Our focus is for other qualities, such as health, temperament and trainability. Review the Golden Retriever Club of America link for a note on golden retriever coloring and why that shouldn't be a primary focus for top breeders.
We encourage families to place their deposit early on this litter. Pricing information and puppy applications are now available.
