Golden Retrievers

Peter Loveall has been involved with Golden Retrievers since 1980. He put a CD and WC on Loveall's Winchester Scott in 1984. Winchester met with an untimely death due to cancer in 1986. He will always be missed for his love and unwavering companionship.

In 1985, Pete bought Marigold's Degage Amour who became a pet due to an unfortunate accident when she was a puppy. She truly lived up to her name, though; freely giving love to anyone that was near. Amour gave us twelve grand years of constant love and affection.

Marigolds Texas Tornado (Tory), had the wind suddenly taken from him on April 5, 2001. Tory crossed the Rainbow Bridge after a very sudden ailment took him from us soon after being shown at the Ft. Worth shows the previous weekend. Texas A&M University performed an necropsy to determine the cause. Although a definitive answer was not produced, we were able to piece together the following. Tory contracted what appeared to be "kennel cough" normally associated with bordatella at the Ft. Worth shows. He was put on a narrow antibiotic for bordatella. However, his condition did not improve and slowly transformed into aspiration pneumonia a week after the first cough. We do not know what he contracted, but it was not bordatella as that was not found in the necropsy. Suffice it to say, don't take ANY ailment for granted.

Tory had 14 points and took reserve both days on the weekend of April 1. In our hearts, he will always be a champion. His unrelenting love and non-stop energy will forever remain in hearts.

Continuing our tradition of raising quality Golden Retrievers, we added two puppies to our family after Tory's death. The first is Sunny (Gold-Sun's Miracle Sunrise), a feisty bitch who survived an extremely hard birth. She is full of energy and wants to be going at all times. She also works on keeping our grasshopper population down. Sunny was purchased as a pet.

We also added Bruiser (Wynde Hill Perpetual Motion). Bruiser gets his name because of his size as a puppy. He was a beautiful dog who found his way onto the show trail in his second year. He loved people and wanted to be at your side at all times.

Bruiser was lost to us less than a week after getting his first 2 points at the San Antonio dog shows. Bruiser crossed the Rainbow Bridge on March 13, 2003 from unknown causes. After review of his death, we believe that Bruiser may have suffered from Addison's Disease.

Bruiser, we all miss you, especially Sunny who no longer has her best friend to play with all day. We are fortunate to have four very special dogs waiting for us on the other side of the Bridge. God couldn't have four better friends by his side.

We have added a new puppy to our home: Major (Wynde Hill Majordomo). Major had a life-threatening bout with leptospirosis soon after we got him but the very dedicated care he received from Meadow Brook Animal Hospital i McKinney pulled him through and he is now a very happy, energetic dog. Due to many factors, we have never shown him. I believe he would have achieved his champion title very quickly if we had.

We do not have any litters on the ground nor are we anticipating any in the foreseeable future. Follow the links below to access puppy referral lines and Rescue groups in your area.
