Thanks to breeders Carol Lantiegne and Joan and Ken Kogut
for this beautiful, brilliant, bouncy golden! She is a wonderful companion, a superb mother, a great working farm dog, and a standout
in the obedience ring. She has incredible talent for field work as you would expect from her heritage, but we have never
worked with her in that area. She is a superb mouser in the barn, and has earned the nickname Hilfy Molemaster for her ability to sniff
the blighters out in their tunnels, dig them out and finish them off. She can catch rabbits and squirrels on the run, leap up in the air and catch low-flying
birds, and at a burrow she never gives up till she catches her prey. She enjoys swimming in our pool in the hot days of summer.
In the house, she is calm and companionable. Her favorite
indoor activity is watching TV, especially nature shows, dog shows, horse racing, and bull riding. She is distressed that our
family doesn't watch TV nearly as often as she would like! Hilfy is currently in training for Open obedience, but her heat cycles /
motherhood duties have interfered with getting her to shows. Maybe this fall!

News flash!! In summer 2006, Hilfy's dam Marcy was awarded the Outstanding Dam certificate from AKC for the talents and
accomplishments of her progeny. As Marcy's mother Tupper Tee (who lived to 16 and was still showing in veteran's
obedience classes in summer 2006) is also an OD, this makes her a second generation! Congratulations
to the Koguts and Lantiegnes on this very special accomplishment, and to the owners of all the special Hilfy siblings that
earned this award for Marcy.
Here are pictures of Hilfy's full sister
and littermate Adirondac Summer Time SH, CD, CGC, JH, TDI, who
