I breed healthy & happy English & Irish CKC registered dogs able to do & love the work for which they were originally bred. To me, excellent temperment & health is of paramount importance.
Each is unique & all are wonderful companions.
I have three Goldens sharing my home with me. Amblemere Desire, "DIANA," imported from England's Amblemere Kennel has excellent bloodlines. Her father, Eng. & Irish SH. CH. Gunhills Blue River, is from Bluewaters Kennel.
I own her son, Ambleside Adam, "BLUE" and Ambleside Backus at Otterslide, aka "Backus", is co-owned and soon living with Susan Gow have English/Irish bloodlines as does her daughter, Ambleside Believe, aka "Eve". Their sire, Erinderry Harry Potter at Ventess is from Ireland's Erinderry Kennel .
The ICON, In Memory Of, has pictures & describes my North American bred Golden Retrievers, "AMOS," Domans Play Misty For Me, a wonderful, loving companion. "PEBBLES" Oriana Still Waters Run Deep was a joy to live with.
The dogs I breed pass a yearly CERF eye exam, pass both hips & elbows from one or more of the following organizations; the British Veternarian Association (BVA), OFA, PENHIPP, or the OVC. They've also passed a Board Certified Heart Examination.
In 2006, I bred my English Import, Amblemere Desire, "DIANA'" to very handsome Irish Import, "DARCY," Erinderry Harry Potter of Ventess. "DIANA" gave me five handsome & healthy boy pups. All found wonderful homes.
The ICON DIANA'S FIRST LITTER shows each of her pups with their own photo gallery. Photos are added when their families send them.
This 2006 litter was so exceptional, l repeated it in 2008.
The ICON 2008 Litter Plans has pictures & background information about these breedings & the sire, Erinderry Harry Potter of Ventess, "DARCY." Although my first litter was all boys, my second litter gave me one of each.
The LINKS ICON allows you to go to the Kennels my dogs and those sires I bred come from.

Expectations For Any Of My Re-Homed Pups
Golden Retrievers crave & need human company. They're family dogs, always happy to see & be with you. They love you, despite yourself. Goldens spend their lives trying to please you & are happiest when they succeed.
Every dog deserves life-long health care, affection, direction, & respect. Cute Golden Retriever pups grow up into medium sized, athletic, strong dogs. Both owners & pups need obedience training, especially the owners. Golden Retrievers require exercise, no matter the weather. They get wet &/or dirty when they play. They like to play, a lot. Goldens are handsome dogs, with lovely coats that shed. Shedding and Golden Retrievers go hand in hand.
My CKC registered pups are re-homed on a CKC Non-Breeding Agreement & come with a & temperment guarantee. Every pup will have been temperment tested, dewormed three times, have had a microchipped implanted for identification purposes, & will have had their first vaccinations. All pups are thoroughly vet examined and deemed healthy before they leave my care.
I want my pups to be re-homed only with families willing to make room in their lives for another family member. My pups are not yard dogs; they're household family members. I don't want to re-home my pups with families who'll 'need' to give up their dog because keeping them becomes inconvenient, family status changes, home relocation is necessary, etc.
I do recognize there are legitimate times when a pup/dog has to be given up. I'll take the dog back &/or help re-home them. My Separate Contract stipulates that I get first choice to take back any puppy or adult dog/bitch that can no longer be kept, whatever the reason. My prior permission is required before they are sold, re-homed, or given away, whatever the reason.
I keep watch over any puppy I breed for the length of their life. I want continued contact with my pups' families & will be available for help or information. Re-homed pups &/or dogs living near me are welcome for any overnight or extended visits.
My Background
I've been involved with Golden Retrievers for over 10 years. My first boy, "Amos," got me hooked on this breed. I take on-going Obedience training, have done Field Work, & currently show my dogs in Conformation. I take part in CKC Rally O Competitions and CKC Canine Good Neighbour Test.
I belonged to the British Columbia Golden Retriever Club for several years. Now living in Kingston Ontario, I am a member of the Ottawa Valley Golden Retriever Club, a CKC member & hope to join the UKC shortly. My Kennel, AMBLESIDE, is CKC registered.
