Spirit is pick girl from Pepsi's second litter, which was a very tight linebreeding on Multi-Ch Beinnbhreagh's Great Pleasure.

She is a very fun girl, she is very confident and outgoing and has a great sense of humor. She has a high energy level, but also is able to settle when she's not playing - she is both calm and crazy at the same time! She is very sweet and affectionate, and way too smart for her own good! She is very agile and athletic...at 5 months old she was already showing a natural aptitude for agility, judging by her habit of repeatedly placing herself on the grooming table, the deep freezer, the kitchen table or the dining room table LOL

She finished her Championship with all 3 point wins, in only 4 weekends of showing. She got her first 3 wins at 10 months old, and the last at 13 months old. She loves to show, and has a beautiful natural freestack. She has always been shown this way - hands off at the end of the lead, never hand stacked except for her New Ch picture!

Like her dad, she is a retrieving maniac with tremendous drive and an intense love of swimming & birds! We are planning on sending her away to "camp" for formal hunt test training sometime in 2008, in the meantime we are working at home with wings & bumpers.

We have started serious training in obedience, and she earned her CGN (Canine Good Neighbor) & TT (Temperament Test) titles In August/07. She has had a great time in agility classes, and we look forward to getting back to it after she raises her litter. We also plan on trying out some flyball & tracking with her down the road, if we can find time to fit it in with everything else!

She is an extremely bright and willing student who is a lot of fun to train. She is not soft and takes pressure well in her training.

Spirit has a thick deep red coat with a bit of white on feet & chest, and a tiny dot above her nose. She has lovely angles and balance, beautiful face & expression, flowing movement, excellent strong bone, a beautiful natural free-stack and is 18.5" tall and 36 lbs.

Spirit is Optigen PRA Normal & CEA Normal! Her hips have been certified OVC Normal & OFA Preliminary Good at 18 months. Her elbows have been certified OVC Normal and OFA Preliminary Normal at 18 months. She has OFA Normal Patellas, OFA Normal Heart, serum has been drawn for OFA thyroid and we are awaiting the results.

Spirit's first litter was born June 10/07, bred to Am/Can Ch Tollwest Dances With Waves CD AGN RN-MCL NJC TG-N TN-N CGN TT. She had a beautiful litter of 3 boys and 3 girls.

Spirit was born and raised on BARF, with both her parents also being BARF born & raised!

If you are seeking a "bargain puppy" or are "price shopping" please look else where. If you are seeking a quality, well-bred Toller with the correct Toller 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 Tollers and their future. We health test our Tollers 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.
