We are very proud to have a puppy from the Stormerick Kennel join the Eveninghill Golden Retrievers.

Phoebe was one of two puppies in the litter and the Merricks planned to keep one. When I saw her on their website I knew that she was meant for me. Not only was she beautiful she was Boris' half sister as they had the same sire. A visit to Taunton was made to see both puppies and to be sure that this was what I really wanted. Any puppy that comes to live here will stay regardless of show results or breeding potential so I knew I had to make a considered decision and not let my heart rule my head. She was just as good in the flesh and I told Jan that if I could have "that one" I was 100% certain that I wanted her. I couldn't believe it when she said that I could have her. 10 days later Paul and I collected her and she has firmly got her paws under the table (and on top of the worktops, settee, coffee table and just about anywhere she can get them!)

Boris adores her, Millie seems slightly bemused that we have adopted a whirlwind and Murphy tries very hard to pretend she isn't really here! She has been going to ringcraft for the last few weeks and has taken it all in her stride. Fingers crossed that she will be able to attend some shows later this year.

Phoebe has now joined her big brother at the shows and seems to be enjoying it. She has been shortlisted and placed at Championship Shows in some huge classes. She won the class of 13 lovely puppies at Luton Premier Open Show in December and was awarded Best Puppy in Breed. Later that day she was placed Puppy Group 2 in the Gundog Puppy Group. Another red rossette was awarded in Puppy at Coventry LKA on New Years Day - what a great end to one year and good start to the next. I can't wait to see what the rest of the year brings for my lovely Phoebe.

Phoebe qualified for Crufts 2012 but unfortunately came into season just 4 days prior to the show so was unable to attend!

She had her first litter in February 2014 of 5 beautiful girls and one handsome lad! From that litter Maisy (Eveninghill Moment to Shine) has joined the show team.

We are totally devestated to have lost our beautiful girl at the age of just 7 years. Phoebe was diagnosed with an extremely aggressive nasal tumour and to save her from any further suffering we had to make a heartbreaking decision. We are comforted by the knowledge that Phoebe lived for the day, she didn't care about tomorrow, that is for us, her protectors, to worry about. We miss our sparky and gutsy girl, the house is very quiet without Phoebe ensuring that she had the first and last word of each and every day.
