 A live breeding took place in June 2025 with fresh semen as a back up. Sage is the result of a Trans Cervical Insemination (TCI) breeding between the US and UK working lines.

 
This litter has 37 significant field and working titles throughout the maternal and paternal lines. Including AFC, FC, Master National, Field Trials and IGL competitive level in the UK.  While this pedigree is an outbreeding between the US & UK more genetic diversity , it retains a high level of competitive achievements.  In addition, there are a number of hunting goldens and a variety of usages that all contribute and round out multiple key field traits.  Several of my favorite US field goldens are in this pairing.  


Out of 273 genetic tests, Sage (US x UK)  is completely heterozygous for all but 5.  She is completely CLEAR of all available genetic test and finished with OFA evaluation of  EXCELLENT hips and NORMAL elbows.  She has an excellent temperament and substantial field pedigree. Dusty is the 3rd generation MH Including Mr. Speaker who earned his AFC and lived to 15.5 years old.
