        Many years ago, while going to college in Minnesota, I purchased a golden retriever. The breeder was raising and training field trial goldens. The breeder gave me a quick demonstration of what the dog was trained to do and I was awed. That puppy was the smartest puppy I've ever owned, the mythical Joshua. Unfortunately I learned a valuable lesson about dogs and cars and I had to put Joshua down at 9 months of age due to a crushed pelvis. My second golden, Quala, was not field bred and although a wonderful pet, did not posses the qualities that I enjoyed in Joshua. Although I was living in New Jersey, I contacted Joshua's breeder hoping for a repeat breeding. This search resulted in me purchasing Jessie, a FC/AFC Benjamin Rajah Frisbee daughter. She was an intense retriever that I trained for 4 years before demands of work and dog issues made me retire my dogs. Twelve years later, when Jessie's daughter was fourteen, I decided to get another field trial golden. The first Retriever Field Trial News that I looked in had two litter listings for dogs that were line breed on Benjamin Rajah Frisbee, I had to have one. The rest is a blur.

        Now thirteen years later, my dogs and I have a lists of accomplishments to be proud of
