My name is Arianna and I live with my husband Dale and our 5 Goldens in S. Germano dei Berici, a lovely little village in the Berici Hills, in the area of Veneto region called "Basso Vicentino". I grew up among hunting dogs, my father always had Irish Setters or Springer Spaniels; Dale's family had Collies and German Shepherds. When I was 18 a beautiful sweet German Shepherd puppy, Guenda, entered my life and she became a big part of it for the following 12 and 1/2. Dale and I met when Guenda was 5 and she soon became his baby. Our Golden adventure started much later. In 2004 we were in South Korea and Samantha boisterously jumped into our lives. Her arrival was purely a fluke, little did we know, she totally changed our life. Thanks to Sam and to her emblematic personality we fell in love with this awesome breed, and the passion of a lifetime had begun... Wellington - Int. Ch. Stonedale Weekend Lover CCA - arrived in October 2005. He was Sam's first birthday present and they immediately became best buddies. Breeding is an art, and I am very fascinated by it. My aim is to breed Goldens as close as possible to the breed standard, both in temperament and construction. I like a glamorous dog with a profuse coat, long neck and dead level topline. I like a well angulated dog, but never overdone, I like an elegant, balanced dog, a sound mover, with a well chiseled head and a melting expression. I like a dog to be fit for function and that can quickly adapt to different situations.
PeeWee is the perfect Golden, sweet, smart, always willing to please. He is my shadow.
Wellington introduced me to the show world and since this happened I am changing cars more often!All our dogs have bomb-proof temperaments and passed their health clearances with flying colors.
