I started breeding goldens in 2006 after 20 years of Springer Spaniels,! Bonnie my first, then Beau, Maehlie , Dancer, Gypsy, then Ceili, Rian and Lucy, my original 3 on the right ( me brown hair!) Its always been important to me to test OFAs and after about 10 years I learned about "more testing" of heart and eyes, and then adding in DNA testing for more obscure issues., My personal dogs have all. Occasionally an older proven outside stud might not have dna as he has proven no issues,
I also added in "working titles"AKC when possible, Ceili has only Canine good puppy as covid broke out in 2019 and classes shut down. by 2? time to breed and I stop classes. But Lucy has CGC, CGC Adv (community pre therapy dog) and Novice tricks, Rian also CGC and Ntricks. his mother CGC and CGCA and TD . Im now 70 so hope to keep testing but depends on my body!! I hope to breed another 5 year or more. I try to keep to breed standard, clearances, gold in color whether light crem or med, proper height etc
My original group: Beau, Maehlie, Dancer, Gypsy ) Ceili , Lucy and Rian all have all 4 OFA certifications hips, elbows, heart, and eyes and a genetic tests neg. for GR-PRA 1 & 2, and MD and Ichthyosis ! Presently I only have Ceili , Lucy and Rian here,. I plan to keep another pup l in 2023 "Lucy" and hopefully a CAN ch MiCin's Sven.
Ceili, pronounced kay-lee, its gaelic, like Maehlie (molly) is. She has Laurell's breeding, and her sire has permanent AKC CH! She has OFA clearances, bred her 12/9-11. born Oct 26, 2018 so more to come. She is clear on her Golden retriever DNA panel (including ICT and NCL) she had a 2nd litter in 22' with Rian, lovely. But I have since decided its too hard to keep a stud loose with the girls! So Rian is neutered.
***I have a Facebook page just for the dogs this is the best way to see recent photos and to reach me : https://www.facebook.com/Kaczara-Farm-Goldens-
2023 Ceili x Designer golden's Beau hopefully in March for May pups to leave July, 4 promised. 3 males 1 female she has had 9 past two litters.
Also 2023-24? Lucy x hopefully MiCin's Sven a CAN ch will wait till fall so might be a Dec litter to leave early Feb? not sure, will see when she cycles usually with her mom. so I can't do two litters same day! I could handle 2 weeks apart if she waits in the spring (but I doubt it) I could possibly breed her to a different stud if this doesn't work at the time.
