Zephyr Kennel - Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers
In Residence
Gem
UACHX UCDX SHR UKC/NSDTRC CH Lonetree's Gem Adamantine CD RN WC AX OAJ
Gem is our foundation bitch and our introduction to the breed. She is smart, sassy and
accomplished, earning titles in agility, obedience, rally, conformation and field. She is a
recipient of the Rusty Jones award, which recognizes Tollers who complete CH, CD and WC
titles. She also earned enough titles to qualify for the NSDTRC USA's Versatility Excellent Award
(VCX). Gem is now 15 and enjoys a life of leisure.
Many of her puppies have followed in her footsteps. Check our litters page for more information.
June
UAGII Zephyr's Day in June WC RE NA NF OAJ CD
June is a granddaughter of Gem, out of Ghillie, who is from Gem's 2001 litter. We knew we
wanted her to stay when she began scaling a 30 inch xpen at 6.5 weeks old. Now 4 years old,
she has earned enough titles to qualify for the Toller Club's Versatility certificate and is following
in her grandmother's pawprints, poised to up that to a VCX within the next few years.
Lark
UAGII Zephyr's Evelyn Echo
Lark is out of June's first litter, born Easter Sunday 2008. Though it was really too soon for us to
add another dog I was very drawn to this pup from the get go. She is very balanced, with nice
angles and a pretty head. She has a wonderful temperament and a nice amount of drive without
being as over the top as her mother. Lark has been hampered by my work and school schedule
but recently completed her first two agility titles and has legs on several more. She is major
pointed and we are hoping to step into the obedience and rally rings later this year as well as
debut in the field.
Our co-owned dogs
Tilia
Manitou's Bird in Hand 4 Zephyr
Tilia spends most of her time with her other owners but comes over to hang out with cousin
June and attend the occasional dog show. She's a lot of dog in a little package, and we just
couldn't pass up this breeding. We are looking forward to her first litter.
Eta
Zephyr's Eta Carinae
Eta lives with her co-owners in Ohio but we manage to connect every few months at the shows.
She won the 12-18 month class at the Canadian National Specialty in Kitchner, ON in May of
2009. She is maturing into a lovely bitch. She is currently being worked in both field and
obedience and should get a chance to display her new talents in 2010. She recently earned her
first CD leg the same weekend she picked up her first major.
In our hearts and minds
Rosie
UACH UCD SHR Lonetree's Just My Style RN WC
Rosie was a retrieving fool and very single minded about "fetchin' it up", whether it was tennis
balls, bumpers or birds. She taught us much about fieldwork, heart and stamina. She is greatly
missed.
