Our names are Wendy and Ian Johnson and we have been dog lovers forever. We could never be happy without dogs sharing our home, and breeding has added a special pleasure and interest for us, having whelped litters of our two special breeds. We hope this is reflected in our website and that you enjoy the information and photos we want to share with you.

As a small kennel in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, we selectively breed Golden Retrievers who will firstly become loved family pets and who will be equally suited to the show ring and/or obedience, retrieving, agility and tracking activities. We have been members of the Victorian Canine Association since 1979. The decision to breed beagles came after we returned from England in 1976. We bought our first dog a beagle in 1965, the year our son Cameron was born and Cindy, our second beagle was our first breeding bitch. Only more recently did we decide to own, show and breed Golden Retrievers and just love their affectionate, biddable nature. We have our daughter Tanya to thank for this introduction, as she bought her first beautiful Golden Retriever, Gypsy in 1996.

Ian and I joined the Golden Retriever Club of Victoria in 2004 and I became involved as a member of committee in 2006. As Vice President and Assistant Secretary I have gained invaluable knowledge about the breed and enjoy the company of others who love their Goldens.

We have two beautiful Golden Retriever bitches, Keesha (Beaucroft Undercover Gal, dob 19/10/2003) and Annie (Ch Fernfall Annabella dob 11/7/2004). Click on their tabs to see photos of them. They are great companions and a vital part of our family, as well as successful show dogs. Our dogs share our home in the eastern suburbs during the week and on the Mornington Peninsula when we have spare weekends, where they love to swim and sniff out the rabbits.
