(English Lines)

AKC Labrador Retrievers came back into my life on a warm Easter Sunday in 1998. On this fateful day, I decided to give a lonely little yellow lab pup a two week trial. Twelve and a half years later, God called her home.The pain is real and the hole is deep but, this is Oat's story and her extended family will live on..............

Oats was not only my buddy, she was mother & grandmother to all our dogs. She was my second hand when it came to farm work. I couldn't do my farm chores without her! She passed all her displaysia tests, was certified "Good" and had her eyes "Cleared" annually. This wonderful yellow female weighed in at a hefty 55 lbs and had a small solid build. Oats had wonderful retrieving skills, targeted birds on the ground/air, loved the water, a lively mouse hunt and herded my young weanling horses and goats into the barn when needed. Bring out a gun, and she was ready to find the vermin! Oats produced her last litter - sired by the late, Mistyfield March To The Beat - on: April 18, 2005.

There were 7 puppies: 4 boys and 3 girls. She LOVED being a mom! Thank you Oats for giving your all and leaving us with the most wonderful memories.


Until we meet again..........................

Uno, ready to go!                                Uno at rest - summer of 2005

Uno was the sole pup in her litter. She was a 'keeper' from the start! Uno is tiny, weighing in between 43-48 pds. Although her build is small, this dog is dynamite! Her profile is a site to behold, correct legs, hips, eyes and a hunting instinct to die for.


Uno's Limited Show Record: Aug. 2006 - almost one year from her first agility lesson, she garnered both her AKC Novice Agility Titles in 20' division and one High Point Labrador Retriever Award (Standard Division) at: The Greater Boston Labrador Retriever Club trial! 2007 - Uno earned her AKC Open JWW Title and is one "Q" away from her Open Standard. She received another, High Point Labrador Retriever Award (Jumper With Weaves Division) at: The Greater Boston Labrador Retriever Club trial, for the second year in a row! Way to go Uno!

Trialing for the 2008 agility season was very light. High gas prices & large traveling distances were the main reasons. 2009 was another light year as Uno had a litter of pups in March and we decided to keep a pretty yellow female. Both Uno, and Uno's mother, Oats, were getting up there in years so, Island Dos will continue on for both of them. In 2009 Uno tried a few CPE Agility Trials. We both had a fun time, met a lot of new friends/dogs and earned a lot of "Q's".  Uno even won a title!


NEWS FLASH!!

Uno finished her AKC Open Agility Title on April 23, 2011 at the BOTC Agility trial! It was party time for this 8 yr. veteran!

Harley is a daughter of Oats. She is the "Hunter" of the group and is all water dog! Mousing, birding and swimming are her first loves in life. She hunts with purpose and never fails to find 'something'. Ask her if she'd like to go swimming, and her eyes light up and her hackles get stiff! She just LOVES to swim! Harley's hips are certified "Good", and her eyes are checked annually. To date, Harley has had 4 healthy litters. Her last litter was whelped on Jan. 1, 2011. We are retiring her from the whelping box and hope to get out this summer to a few agility trials, possibly some rally and most defiantly, we will try dock diving.

Brie
is a smart, quiet dog and a daughter of Island Harley - making her a granddaughter to our dearly departed, Oats. Brie is a sight to behold! She is not only a quick learner with a laid back disposition, she's an excellent retriever and enjoys long swims in the dog pond! Brie has a pretty head, nice length of neck, correct shoulders, short back and a tail that won't stop wagging! She has matured into a beautiful, very stout dog and weighs in at 58-60 lbs. She is what we were hoping to breed when we first started. Brie loves to 'steal' a toy and adores going for a truck or Prowler ride. She is the watch dog of the group and will alert us to anything that isn't right. In 2011, Brie had two litters of pups. All the pups were very fancy with blocky heads and sweet dispositions. Her last litter which was born in August was so nice, we just HAD to keep one!

We are currently waiting for Brie to cycle. When she does, she will be bred for a fall 2012 litter. If you have interest, please inquire soon! Her puppies always sell out before they are born.

This will be a Yellow & Black litter.

Dos is a daughter of our agility Champion, Island Uno. Dos's sire, was an AKC Champion who also had a Rally Obedience Title. One of the key factors in keeping Dos was the age of her sire and grandmother (Oats). We love our "Drummer & Oat" girls and wanted one more! Dos is a tad bigger than our other yellow girls but is extremely agile. She is the best fetcher and toy 'thief' - which we believe she has learned from her 1/2 sister Harley. Dos loves to swim, go for hunting runs in the fields, adores a truck or Prowler ride and will find an apple or pear that falls from the tree, no matter where it lands. She LOVES her fruit!
Early in 2011, Dos went to school for agility. She did great and is a fast learner but, my knee began acting up and we had to stop going to classes. 2012 finds myself with my knee back under me so, Dos and I will be heading back for more classes. Dos tells us, that she would also like to learn the fine art of Dock Diving. We told her, we would look into it. (She really LOVES to swim!)

(Picture of Duchess taken on 2-4-2012)

Duchess is the culmination of all our dogs rolled into one. She is a daughter of Island Breeze, making her a granddaughter of Island Harley and a great granddaughter, to our original yellow female, Oats. She also has ties to Island Uno & Island Dos. Her sire is the well known and very good looking, CH Lobuff Hollyridge Osprey. Needless to say, Duchess has some BIG paws to fill!

Duchess will be a medium sized dog. She has excellent bone, a ton of coat, a pretty head, nice deep chest and a Lap-a-dor personality. This compact dog is extremely athletic and loves to give Island Dos a run for her money. She hangs with Auntie Dos and gladly shares her toys with her. Duchy is busy growing up and just plain having fun. She will be heading for puppy classes in the spring. From there, we will find her niche.


"Note: Duchess and two of her littermates made a TV Commercial for 'Small Dog Electronics'! The Commercial was run for Black Friday 2011"
