Feather is a lovely female from our Maverick x Bounce litter, that had decided to stay here with us at Tollwest. She has a lovely head with beautiful expression, a bright red coat with nice white markings, a strong topline and black pigment. She is a busy, active outgoing girl that loves to run, jump and play. Feather is also extremely affectionate and loves to snuggle! She is very showy, with a natural free-stack, and lovely movement, with lots of reach and drive, and very clean coming and going. She is 18.125" & 36.5 lbs.

She had her conformation debut in March/07, and won Reserve Winners and Best Puppy In Breed her first day in the ring, and a 3 point Best of Winners & Best Puppy In Breed the second day, not bad at all for a 6 month old baby! In April she won another 3 point Best of Winners/Best Puppy, at 7 months old. After a few months break, she returned to the show ring in July, winning a 2 point Best of Winners/Best Opposite Sex/Best Puppy at almost 11 months old.

She attended the 2007 Canadian National Specialty, where she won 3rd place in 9-12 Puppy Female Sweepstakes, and 4th place in the 9-12 Puppy Female official class at the Canadian National Specialty, and also won Reserve Winners Female at the BC All Retriever Club Specialty! In early August, she finished her Championship with a nice 2 point win, a week before her first birthday.

We have started her in field training. She has a lot of natural drive, style and birdiness, and can swim like a fish! She has a natural love of birds - her very first time seeing a duck, she picked it up with no hesitation, in fact she thought it was the best retrieving object ever! But then what else could you expect from a dog named Feather? We look forward to putting some field titles on her as well as hunting with her for waterfowl and upland birds in the future.

She is also currently in training for CGN, obedience & rally and will start agility and flyball this fall after her pups leave for their new homes.

Feather is from an Optigen PRA & CEA/CH Clear-Clear breeding. Her hips are OFA Good, and elbows are OFA Normal. Her Patellas are OFA Normal, her heart is OFA Normal, her thyroid is OFA Normal, and she has a normal CERF eye exam.

She raised her first litter (co-bred with Tollchester Kennels) sired by our boy Avro (Am/Can Ch Tollwest's Magic Arrow CGC) and the pups were born in late April/09.

Her second litter is due in Aug 2010, bred to Can Ch WoodCreek's Blue Bayou, pups will be ready to go in Oct.

Feather will likely be taking 2011 off from raising puppies to focus on earning more titles (in agility, obedience, rally, flyball & field)

If you are seeking a "bargain puppy" or are "price shopping" please look elsewhere. If you are seeking a quality, well-bred Toller or Chesapeake with the correct temperament & instincts, with breeders who will act as a support system throughout the dogs lifetime, please contact us. We sell all of our puppies on contracts that protect the breeder and buyer and most importantly, the puppy. Most breeders we refer to use the same, or similar contracts.

We care about our dogs and their future. We health test all our breeding stock and know the history behind them, not just the sire and dam. There are lots of breeders out there that sell their puppies for less than we do. But remember the old saying. "You get what you pay for."

At Tollwest Kennels, we feed and recommend a raw food diet. All our puppies are weaned to a raw diet diet for optimum health, nutrition and development. We are also advocates of limited vaccine protocols. Please ask for more information.
