We recently bred Lucy to AFC Smackwater's Star Catcher MH and expect black and yellow pups May 30, 2012. We are very excited about this litter and expect some very talented and good-looking pups.

We picked up a stray pup from somewhere.

First swim!

New Breeding

We just bred Lucy to SRS GRHRCH UH Tarbaby's Bobo MH and are really excited about these pups.
Bobo received his HR title at 10 months and his HRCH at 16 months. He got his AKC MH title at 23 months. Bobo passed the 2009 Spring Grand and completed his title in Tennessee last Fall. He made the trip to Huntsville, AL for his 1st Super Retreiver Series event and came home with 1st place. All this before his 4th Birthday!
Like Lucy, Bobo has a wonderful personality and is a pleasure to be around.
For more info on Bobo, go to http://www.taylorfarmkennels.com/?page_id=541
Both Lucy and Bobo are EIC and CNM clear, have good hips, eyes and elbows. Both are yellow factored, so there should be a few yellows in the litter.
If you are looking for a healthy, athletic, highly trainable pup for hunt tests or as a gundog and family member, this may be the breeding for you. If the breeding takes, we expect pups around April 8th. More updates to follow.

Mojo update

Mojo with Santa. That's all I have to say about that.

A couple of pics of Ellie from today. Almost 5 months old.

Echo looking intense.

Family reunion

Ellie (yellow), Mojo and Echo (with red collar) spent the afternoon together relaxing and enjoying each others company.

Smoke chillin' on the back porch

Smoke is living north of Memphis, TN and will grow up to be a duck dog in the Delta. Here he is taking a little nap on the patio table.

All the pups are spoken for

All the pups are going to great homes. Well, all except for one little yellow female who will be staying with us. Her name is Ellie and she was doing her first retrieves in the hallway this morning. What a fun new game.

Just a couple of pics from today.

A trip to the vet's office

The pups got their first shots and worming yesterday, along with a physical exam. All of them are doing great. The smallest girl weighed in at 7 pounds and "Pupzilla" tipped the scales at just over 10 pounds! Some of them will start going to their new homes next week. Lucy will be glad to see them go! She's tired of being chased around by little biting machines.
