"MacKay" was born March 19, 2007. He is from our litter by "Blaze" BIS RBIS BPIS CAN/AM CH Tollwest Blaze Of Fire PCD CGC CGN and "Maverick" BIS BISS Am Can NSDTRC-US CH Fionavar Javahill Topgun Am Can CD WC VC Can ROM Am ROMX.

MacKay is a nice boy who is affectionate and loves to spend time with his family. He loves children and is good with other animals. He has moderate energy and is happy doing anything with his family. He's a decent retriever but occasionally forgets its a game that requires returning the ball to his owner. He is looking for a family where he can be a loving companion.

MacKay is crate trained, tolerates cats, is good with children and loves other dogs. MacKay is CKC registered, is current on his vaccines/deworming/fea control and will come with a care package (toys, leash, collar, information about his pedigree etc..)

The "Chocolate" litter character evaluations

All the pups in this litter reacted well to changes and are not nervous of new surroundings or noises. They all love new introductions and are outgoing with new animals, children, adults etc. The pups are willing to take on new challenges with enthusiasm and they have attitudes which will make them wonderful companion animals.


 
Girl "Godiva" is a little spitfire like her mother! She's the wild child in the family and the puppy who likes to voice her opinion! Her tail is constantly wagging and she loves everyone and everything. She thinks lifes a party and celebrates it often. Godiva will be going to live with a lovely family in Portland OR.



Boy "Leonidas" aka 'Nick' is the sweet little boy in the litter. He has a mind of his own but is always willing to stop to please you. He likes to snuggle and is a real cute cuddle bug. He is a moderate energy puppy with the best 'off' switch in the litter! Nick will be going to live with a lovely family in North Vancouver.




Boy "Galler" is a handsome young man who is a wannabe show puppy. He has the nicest structure in the litter and has personality to burn. He's not to far off of being the party child in the litter.. him and his sister are by far the 'life of the party'. He will be going to live with a lovely family in Southern California





Boy "Marcolini" is similar in temperement to his little brother Leonidas. The two are spitting images of each other both in looks and temperement. Leonidas is Marcolini's 'mini me'! Marcolini will be going to live with a lovely family in Seattle WA.

Boy "Guyllian" is a sweet boy with a great sense of humor. He's the 'middle of the road' puppy in this litter with the perfect combination of cuddles and character. He's got great energy to work but is easily persuaded to nap in your lap. Guyllian will be going to live with a lovely family in Castlegar BC.
