Maggie

Maggie May of Goldstrike

Born May 28, 2020

Maggie is a sister to Bettee. She is a little bit lighter and bigger than Bettee. She is a gorgeous dog and has made a nice addition to our kennel for breeding. She has lots of nice energy, as you can see from the pictures, but can also be calm. This is the way most goldens seem to be with their temperaments. She has cleared on everything but is an ichthyosis carrier. This won't affect any of our puppies because our sires are clear, and as long as one parent is clear, the puppies will not be affected by this, which is bad dandruff. 

Her preliminary hips are good, and her final hip and elbow clearances are good as well. In her next cycle, we plan to breed her with our new young male, Maverick. He has produced many beautiful puppies and is showing promising efforts in his hunt tests and training! He is a well-rounded male - no, I think he is perfect!

Maggie is a dog of excellent health and has a very good drive! She has a wonderful appetite and loves to burn off her energy by running around. She is super funny when she gets a hold of her bumper, as she always likes to take it back to her same spot. She likes to hold it there, play with it, and keep it safe in the same spot. She really enjoys her doggie toys!

When it comes to listening, Maggie will always come through. She does an excellent job of staying near to those she is accompanied by. She is super sweet and caring, like her sister Bettee, which makes her a wonderful doggy friend.
