We acquired Pez through Jackie Mertens of Topbrass Retrievers. Originally, we had a deposit on a different litter but Pez became available. I hmmmd over her purchase price, but knew she would be the dog of a lifetime given she had FC-AFC parents, a bit of a rarity in goldens.

We knew she was special when she made the flight to us from Florida and immediately was retrieving full-sized dokkens for us that evening! She was always a very active pup, and loved showing her affection by giving us "hugs." She went training with Tim Springer of Dynamic Retrievers at about six months of age, and being more of a "lab guy," he was impressed at how quickly Pez progressed in training.

Under Tim's handling, "Pez" qualified in 2010 for the Master National at just two years of age, and because we anticipated a heat cycle we did not attend. Pez also earned her Master Hunter title at the age of two years in July 2010, and respectfully ran her first field trial. Pez had exceptional natural marking ability and Excellent rated hips through OFA. Pez had a super fall hunting pheasant before she passed away, and oh the birds we would have missed if not for well-trained dogs! Pez's pedigree was stacked with FC-AFC parents and ancestors, and generations of recommended health clearances.

Pez was a very petite 55 pound bitch, and a lot of hunting dog in a compact package. When Pez was not training and competing, she resided in our home with our two other dogs and children.

We miss you, girl!!
