We are extremely proud of our kids and hereby celebrate the diversity and beauty of the true Golden Retriever! Here's a little info on the dogs at Abelard now. For more info on a specific dog, please click on its picture.
Mickey is a loveable, galloping clown, always delighting us with his antics and his sense of humor -- a little like his namesake. We love his structure, his presence, his showmanship and his desire to please. His mother is a Summer daughter, which makes our boy a Summer grandson. You can see a picture of his mom in "Our Stars." >click his pic to visit Mickey's page<
If Pearl seems like she's a tad different than the other Abelard dogs, it's because she came from Australia! One of our concerns when breeding Golden Retrievers is genetic diversity, which many believe has a positive impact on longevity and general health. Pearl is the result of many years of conscientious, wonderful breedings by Bruce McLean of Kingsgold Golden Retrievers in Sydney, Australia (www.kingsgold.net). >click her pic to visit Pearl's page<
What kind of name is that?! The short answer is that Nyx was a daughter of Chaos in Greek mythology. The long answer can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyx. At our house, Nyx is a mischievous merry-maker who is always ready for anything you throw at her -- whether it's just a ride to the store, a tennis ball, a cookie or your lap.

"Towanda!" Yeah, I know. All my dogs have weird names. So if you've ever seen the movie Fried Green Tomatoes you already know what the battle cry "Towanda!" is all about. If you haven't, geez...go rent it! Towanda is one of the nicest girls we've ever had the pleasure to share our lives with. Beautiful, tall, blonde and quirky...just an absolutely pleasure to be around. Please click on her picture to visit her page.
"Billy" So many wonderful things to say about Billy...beautiful head, gorgeous coat, tremendous body depth and bone, attitude up the ying-yang, great topline, coal-black pigment...what's not to love? Please click on Billy's picture to visit his page.
"Winter" My funny girl Winter...whose name was chosen because she shares a father with my foundation girl, Summer. Summer was born from Robbie's last natural litter, in 1996. Eleven years later I bred my lovely Aussie Pearl to him via frozen semen. You gotta love technology. Please click on Winter's picture for more!
Darling Hope, the perfect puppy. Hope is out of a boy we bred, Am/Can CH. Abelard's Mister Fizz and the lovely Aussie import Kingsgold Rythem N Blues. She is the perfect puppy -- she never does anything wrong and just wants to please. You have to see hear lying on her back, batting a ball around, or hopping in the river and wondering how to swim! Please click on Hope's picture to go to her page.
Brett is the daughter of our dearly missed Quest, Ch. Boitano's Band on the Run to Abelard, and is our resident character. Brett is now spayed and loving her status as full-time hugger. She remains active, healthy and just plain fun to be around. Please click on her photo to visit her page.
