If you have arrived at this page then you probably love Golden Retrievers. In addition to providing some background information about our family and photos of our Goldens, we have included some educational material and some links which we hope will be both interesting and informative.
The best way to see our puppies and dogs is by going to the BICKLEWOOD You Tube channel where we have uploaded 12 videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/wejohnson41/featured

Average Hip score for Annie's puppies is a total of 6, Elbows 0/0. All puppies tested have had clear heart examinations and clear eyes exams.
Annie, photographed above left was our foundation bitch and we look back now and reflect on the wonderful puppies she has produced and subsequently the many new friends we have made through this endeavour. Our special thanks go to Jane Fall for entrusting us with Annie. Detailed information on Annie, including her pedigree and list of show wins can be found on her own pages "Annie" and there are many more photos of her under "Gallery". If you view the Progeny pages you can see some of her puppies with photos. The You Tube video shows Holly, a puppy from our last litter. Dallas, Bicklewood Schubert was the mother. We plan for another litter with Dallas this year and if everyting goes to plan they would be born around Easter. If you are interested in a puppy from this litter please complete the puppy questionnaire and forward it to us.
Dallas, Bicklewood Schubert will be the next Golden to carry on the genes with a litter planned for the second half of 2011; see Planned Litters.
If you would like to see how we bring up our puppies, there are five videos of Annie's puppies filmed at four, six and seven weeks taken in September, 2009, the 2011 litter at 6 weeks old and Dallas' Nov 2011 litter at 7 weeks. These videos will give you an understanding of our outside puppy areas and feeding strategies where puppies start to learn to respond to commands. We thank Yvonne for making these videos and selecting such lovely music. You can also see her dog Caden, one of Annie's puppies from this litter starting to learn basic commands.
