Taking $500 deposits for puppies to go to homes as pets, breeding dogs and sport dogs We’ve had this hunting line for 15 years and this show line for about 10 years. This blend of very different types of Golden Retriever pedigrees lowers the DNA COI to about 10-15%. This produces a dog with potentially better health and temperament due to the diversity of genes. Both our separate lines have been incredibly healthy and long lived. Together, the offspring has the potential to be even better. We have blended European Show with American Hunting lines for the past 2 decades with great success.

 

This litter’s estimate COI 14%
This litter’s estimate COI 14%
Ashe’s DNA COI
This litter’s DNA COI is predicted at 14%. The average Golden is 21%. You can see we are greatly reducing the inbreeding in this pairing. Lagertha=30% mom, Luke=33% maternal grandpa, Firecracker=26% maternal grandma. The outcross to Charlton=21% dad puts the litter at 14% COI. River & Pickles are Charlton’s full sisters. These calculations are predicted using DNA analysis in the Embark Pair Predictor tool. The pedigree data will be greatly reduced in the COI calculation. The DNA COI is correct, not the pedigree COI. A 14% COI is possible because of this unique blend of all European Show & all American Hunting families of Goldens are paired together for an “outcross” pedigree.Puppies at 5 weeks
