Hunter’s Goldstrike

Faith

Faith 4 Hunter’s Goldstrike

Born August 7, 2017

From when Faith was a part of our Breeding Program:

“Faith is one of our females out of Amos that we got from Amos siring a litter for someone. She has some line breeding in her pedigree, but we feel that it will only bring in some exceptionally good traits. We have done the preliminary hip and elbow clearances with her hips coming back excellent and her final hips are good. We are very happy about that. We, however, are not going to do the DNA testing on her because she is an older female and will be retiring in the next couple of years. We have also had a puppy of hers tested for Ichthyosis, and her puppy was a carrier. Since all our sires are cleared of this we know Faith has to be a carrier.

Faith is a very sweet, gentle girl. She loves to be petted and will hang out with me. She is a nice dark red in color with a beautiful coat. She is not a real big female. She is definitely the size of the field line goldens. She looks so much like Hope that I have a hard time telling these two apart. You can tell they are both Amos’ offspring.“
