Ellie has been retired from breeding

Ellie is a very athletic girl who will work all day to please you. She is a natural retriever, both on land and in water.  Her prey drive has aided in obedience training as well as allowing her to be a wonderful companion and playmate.  She is the dam to our Multiple Best in Show winning Grand Champion, Stella, our UKC Champion Liv,  FCI Champion Benjamin, Tova's Benjamin at Deleware, who is owned by Jitka Vlasáková in the Czech Republic, UKC Grand Champion Oliver, co-owned with Raechel Drill,  UKC Altered Champion Piper, owned by Maryann Beauchene, and multiple performance title holders.

While Ellie has been spayed and retired from breeding, she still enjoys performance events.  Her favorite activity is keeping a watchful eye on our new baby. 

In the Fall of 2010, my fiancé suggested that we get another dog as our joint wedding gift to each other.  I found a litter that would be available in the spring of 2011.  The day after my wedding, I received an email from the breeder that my girl had been born during the night.  It only seemed appropriate to name her "Happily Ever After", aka Ellie, since she was born on our wedding night.

Ellie is our black parti factored bitch who stands 22 1/2 inches tall, weighing around 45 lbs.  She finished the 2013 show season in the UKC Top Ten with limited showing. She was CGC certified at under a year old, and earned her AKC Rally Novice title before she was two.  While we started her conformation career after she was two years old, she was able to obtain her UKC Championship in five shows and her UKC Grand Championship in just six more.
