The 2 girls and 3 boys in Hebe's 2nd and final litter, a repeat of her summer 2020 litter by handsome Bruno, arrived on their due date, and are now all in their lovely new homes - except "Soonie" who has stayed at Kindrogan - we were very pleased to be able to keep her as we'd been so impressed with Bruno and Hebe's 2020 litter, hence repeating that mating. Bruno is a lovely dog – calm, gentle and good-looking!
Hebe has a hip score of 3:6 and a clear eye certificate under the KC/BVA scheme (date of last examination April 2021) – see results of health tests above. She is also "clear by inheritance" for the eye conditions GR_PRA1 & 2. Bruno's last eye examination was in October 2020, and he has also been DNA tested Clear for GR_PRA 1 & 2 which meant his and Hebe's puppies are "clear by inheritance" for these conditions. Bruno has a hip score of 6:4 and an elbow grade of 0:0.
As usual, the puppies were raised indoors with controlled access to an area of our garden from approximately 4½ weeks (weather permitting), and in addition to their mother, they could be seen with their great granny Chummy, and Great Auntie Winnie (Hebe is the daughter of Winnie's older full sister). Only in very exceptional circumstances do we allow visitors before the puppies are 5 weeks old.
Further information about Hebe could be found on her own page, and about Kindrogan Golden Retrievers on our main page, including the fact that our puppies always have their KC registrations endorsed "progeny not eligible for registration" and "not eligible for the issue of an export pedigree" – we never send puppies to homes overseas even if we already know the enquirers.
Wherever possible, we look for homes with previous experience of dogs, ideally Golden Retrievers, and invited those interested to contact us (by clicking on "Contact my Breeder" icon initially), and providing information about themselves, their family circumstances, work commitments, previous experience of dogs, etc. We made an initial shortlist from the information provided at this stage, and then asked for further details. For us, it's never been a case of "first come, first served" when finding the right permanent, loving homes for our precious puppies.
