"Crave" Tollchester's Secret Obsession, is looking for a home!

She's a gorgeous girl who is super intelligent, loves to please and has a great working temperament ....she has the potential to excel in almost anything her owners put their mind to!

Crave has lots to offer the genepool in tollers with her superb structure and pedigree. We are looking for a home for her who would consider breeding a litter with her in the future. She is available to a current breeder or on a mentorship program to someone interested in learning more about breeding tollers.

Dog Shows on the go!

July and August have been a busy busy month for dog shows for Tollchester Kennels. On July 18th at the Regional Specialty our boy "Topper" picked up a Award Of Merritt! That evening we had a very successful BBQ after the show ...it was lovely to see everyone again! Thank you everyone who participated. Anyone who has photo's please email them to me at tollchester@gmail.com for the end of year newsletter we will be putting together.

In August dog shows ran on Vancouver Island from August 1st to August 9th! During the 'circuit' we finished a CHAMPIONSHIP on our lovely girl "Piper" who is now CH Tollchester's Christmas Wish. Topper also had a successful week going Best Of Breed all 8 days at the show and picking up a Group 3rd in the Sporting Dog Group on August 1st!

Being a dog show enthusiast the shows didn't stop there this weekend Simone and Topper will be heading up to the Kooteny's for 10 more days on the road! Topper will show at Castlegar and Cranbook shows this weekend and next weekend... Paws crossed for them.

After such a successful Picnic earlier this year we look forward to putting on one again before year end! Plans are currently being made for a picnic at Buntzen lake on October 3rd. Don't forget to mark your calendars for the date - we will have more details to come in the next few weeks!!!

Feather and Avro litter - 6 week evaluations

Aerial is a real character with her 'look at me' personality. Aerial loves giving kisses and will lick a person for hours if she could! Her tail is always in constant motion and she's happy 24/7.






Merry is a confident girl who is food motivated - we had to remove the bait for this picture because she didn't want to stand still due to her over excitement for the cheese! She's very sweet and loves being with her family.






Joy is a sweet girl who loves to please. She's very outgoing and will greet you with kisses and her tail in constant motion. She's very sweet and loves to snuggle. She's our 'little princess' in the litter.






Chief is a gorgeous boy who is a strong leader aka 'alpha'. He's the 'leader of the pack' in this litter and is a bit of a control freak over them. He loves attention from visitors and has a will to please his owners.






Captain is a lovely boy who has 'come out of his shell' in the past week. His gone from our quiet boy who was a little reactive into a very happy boy who's not fazed by change and loves to get your attention no matter what it takes!





Alpine is a nice boy who is sweet and cuddly. He's a real family man who loves to please. He's Mr. Mellow in the litter with a low energy level in the home but when out to play has a wonderful 'on' switch.
