FEMALES
Beautiful Bess
At Cape Golden, we truly believe our breeding is second-to-none. Our foundation female, Bess is a purebred Golden Retriever. She was imported by us from England and came from gold standard parents. She has excellent hip and elbow scores and has been DNA tested for Golden Retriever heritable diseases. She is a stunning looking girl with the sweetest temperament typical of the breed. We could not be happier with Bess and are so excited to continue our breeding program with her and her babies! Bess has given us three beautiful litters, we are considering a fourth and final litter for late 2024. Bess loves nothing more than babies (of any species!). We have four of her stunning daughters living with guardian families with whom we will continue to produce limited numbers of litters. Watch this space!
FEMALES
Hazel
Hazel was our pick of the litter from Bess's 2022 F1 Groodle litter. A ruby red, Mini sized Groodle she is an absolute delight. Possessing the absolute best of temperaments with a gorgeous, curly, non-shedding coat she is a very exciting addition to our breeding program. Like all our pets, Hazel lives in the family home. She, Bess, and Pumpkin, are the best of friends and sleep curled up together. Hazel and Cardinal have just had a beautiful litter of four boys. We are all so in love!
FEMALES
Pumpkin
Pumpkin was our unexpected but incredibly welcome surprise of 2022. Pumpkin is the granddaughter of Bear Dog, the beautiful red and white Border Collie who could claim to be the matchmaker between Joanna and Rob 15 years ago. Having sired a few litters in his younger days Bear Dog sadly passed away in 2016. As we sterilised his daughter, Daisy, whom we had, we thought his line was lost. Late 2022 we received a phone call asking us if we would like the pick of the litter from Bear Dog's son. YES please! We will likely breed from Pumpkin in the future, Border Collies and possibly Bordoodles (crossed with a Poodle male). Watch this space!
Oscar
Oscar is a gorgeously hunky nearly 3 year old Golden Retriever male. He lives in Perth with his humans and loves to go camping and swimming at the beach. We feel so lucky to have Oscar as Bess's baby daddy! Oscar has excellent hip and elbow scores, and is cleared by DNA testing for any heritable Golden Retriever diseases.
MALES
Cardinal
Cardinal is a two year old multi-generational Medium Groodle. He has the excellent temperament and health scores we look for in our breeding dogs. Cardi has clear DNA results and excellent hip and elbow scores. We are extremely lucky to be able to use Cardi in our breeding program, he belongs to Iris Oodles in South Australia. Iris Oodles are highly ethical breeders with whom we share many of the same goals and standards.
