Combined pedigree of Trixie & Brewski.
We met Brewski with his owner Renee Traverse in Toronto, when we traveled to The GRCC National Specialty & were very impressed with his great looks & lovely Golden temperament, as well as his achievement as Reserve Winner's Dog at the Nat'l Specialty.
Breeding expected to take place in early September with puppies due in the early part of Oct. We are hoping these lovely English puppies will be ready to go home for the holidays !!!!
Our plan is to keep one of these puppies here at Stoneledge to add Brewski's fantastic lines to our own lines for future breeding.
Now accepting inquiries on this lovely litter. For further information pls contact Louise at : stoneledgegoldens@comcast.net or call me @ 508-994-7948
Trixie, the dam of our next planned litter at Stoneledge, looking over the counter as she waits for her date to arrive.
Bentley is one of the coolest Goldens I have ever met.
At age 12 & a half; he traveled well to the National Specialty in Toronto; & participated in 10 to 12 yr old Veteran classes, Veteran sweeps, a Veteran parade, stud dog classes with his 2 champion get, & watched his son Presley & Gr-daughter Stella compete in the Chamionship classes, & brought home several ribbons.
5 of the 6 dogs we had competing from Stoneledge were Bentley ; his son Presley & 3 of his Grandkids, Stella, Indigo, & Luna.
Bentley is without a doubt the entire backbone of our breeding program at Stoneledge. He also had other kids & grandkids competing at this National Specialty who did very well for other breeders.
He is a pleasure to live with & we enjoy his zest for life!!!
Bentley & Louise having a pensive moment after the 3 days of competition is complete at the GRCC National in Toronto.
The boys brought home many ribbons and participated in multiple events & classes during the 3 days of showing in Canada. They looked handsome & behaved liked perfect gentlemen, & certainly were great representatives of the type & temperament of Goldens we strive to breed at Stoneledge.
Bentley & Spencer you certainly made me proud!!!

Spencer waits with Cara as she spends some time resting.
Here we have Mr. Purple, now known as Duncan from Cara & Spencer 's 1st Game Theme litter together. He lives outside of Boston & needless to say , we were quite pleased when we received these photos & saw just how handsome & sweet, is is turning out.
As we always say, all puppies are cute, but look at them as they grow up, to see what your dog will actually look like & be like.
This is another reason, we prefer to do repeat breedings here at Stoneledge; it brings much more predictability to our end result in look, health, & temperament. Like the old saying goes,
"If it's not broken,then don't fix it".
Prior to repeating a breeding, we do follow a litter closely & try to gather as much feedback(including photos) from owners, as possible.
Pls visit Cara & Spencer pups page & their individual pages to learn more about this breeding pair. We also have Cara's sire Bentley (age 12 & a half) here; & Spencer's sire Raleigh with us @ age 13 & a half . They are our two eldest gentlemen at Stoneledge. Thus we know the lines very well behind this litter.
Now accepting reservations on Cara & Spencer's Litter due 6-30-2010. Pls contact Louise @ stoneledgegoldens@comcast.net or call me @ 508-994-7948.

Mirabelle is all girl & Maximus is a stocky boy who;'s earned the nickname"little tank".They are half siblings through our handsome Spencer & are having a ball with one another in their Newport estate.

We visited them at their home last week with Spencer & Brew & were quite pleased with how he was looking. The 2 half siblings are a month and a half apart in age and are constant companions for one another. We are enjoying watching them grow up together.

The Stoneledge Gang headed off to their 1st photo shoot on SAT Oct 4th.
for Little Bear Inc., NY, NY. Productions which was done on location at the lovely Cushing Residence on Ocean Ave in Newport. We were very flattered to be called upon by the extremely well known & highly respected photographer, Bruce Weber who was doing this photo shoot for Abercrombie & Fitch & requested 6 of our Goldens be present as models. This week was our boy Presley's turn to shine. We are also proud of Bentley, Spencer, & our girls Trixie, Coco, & puppy Stella, who also did very well.
Here is the spectacular set of the photo shoot:
