While reading the dog health magazine
"Fetch!", we found an article about an ongoing lifetime study on Golden Retrievers! This study may
help develop a way to prevent cancer and other diseases. What they need right now are more dedicated families
to participate. Anyone who owns a Golden Retriever under the age of 2 is eligible. Please CLICK on the picture below to find
out how to get involved!

We spent the weekend in
Harrisburg, PA, attending the NAIA (National Animal Interest Alliance) Annual Conference. The subject of this
year's conference was "Purebred Dogs: The Next Endangered Species?", and was the most action-packed, emotionally
charged conference yet. Highly regarded professors, veterinarians, breeders, and trainers from across
the country attended. Some of the speakers included Dr. Larry Katz from Rutgers, Dr. David Waters from Purdue, and Dr.
Frances Smith (President of the AKC). Click Here for the brochure, and Here for the itinerary.

Below are lists of many
Golden names that we've heard over the years. Give us your opinion on which are the worst, best and most interesting!
At least
one puppy from each of our litters ends up with the name Cooper, Bailey, Bella, or Sunny. Don't worry, we don't
hate those names- it just gets a little redundant when everyone names their puppy the same name!

We took our two "Beauty
Daughters" for their sneak n' peek x-rays and both sets of hips look absolutely gorgeous! They are sired
by Eskimo Pie Evidog (OFA Excellent) and their dam is Cynazar BG's Beauty (OFA Excellent). We can't wait to add two more OFA
Excellents to our team!

Yes, that's right. The above
dogs are all Cynazar OFA Excellents!
|

I just added four more of our
OFA Excellent dogs and three young hopefuls to our OFA Excellents Page. Our list is getting exponentially longer every year! We are seeing exceptional results coming from our hard work.

How much fun it is to receive
certifications! After submitting
a large number of old CERF forms, several Cardio exams, and a few recent OFA test results, many of our dogs from the present
and the past became CHIC Qualified! C.H.I.C. stands for "Canine Health Information Center", and a dog can only qualify
for registration with CHIC if they have completed and submitted ALL tests specific to their breed. Proudly presenting Cynazar's Newly CHIC'd: Cynazar BG's Beauty * Cynazar
Blizzard Conditions * Cynazar Cyndarella's Slipper * Cynazar Drop Dead Gorgeous * Cynazar Let it Snow * Cynazar Lots of Snow * Cynazar Pocket Pooch Plush * Cynazar
The First Snowfall * Cynazar's All Shook Up * Cynazar's Good Humor * Cynazar's Jersey Devil * Cynazar's Klondike Bar * Cynazar's She's So Pretty * Cynazar's

We are happy to announce that
many of our dogs will now be searchable in the CERF Database! Each year we've taken our dogs for their eye exams, however
we now feel that it is important that these records be accessible online. We've been busy gathering our many CERF forms and
have successfully submitted around 1/3rd of them so far! Soon, our complete CERF records will be conveniently accessible online!

Excellent news- Skimo produced
himself once again! Cynazar's
Klondike Bar and Cynazar's Good Humor, brothers from our 12/28/08 litter out of Eskimo Pie Evidog x Cynazar's Ice Cream Sundae,
went for their two year permanent OFA's today. Both boys look to be receiving OFA Excellents!

On November 3rd, we boarded our
young Goldens on a private jet to Minnesota! Here is the newspaper article that details the event: Dogs On The Wing

The week has finally come! We
have been planning for months in advance for this yearly event. March is the time to bring all of our Cynazar Goldens for
their yearly CERF eye exams! This week will be filled with lots of bathing, grooming, transporting, coordinating, and picture
taking for our whole family!

Six Cynazar Goldens traveled
first class to become "Can Do Canines"! Our wonderful boys flew all the way to Minnesota on their very own private
jet on Wednesday. They are beginning their training to become assistance dogs for the disabled. Among them was our very special
Samson, son of Eskimo Pie Evidog (OFA Excellent) and Cynazar's Golden Diamond (OFA Excellent), who may go on to sire future
generations of Can Do Canines! There will be an article written in the local newspaper- I will post it up when I receive a
copy!

We took our two lovely Sage daughters
for their Sneak n' Peek x-rays on Thursday. These girls are incredibly sweet and well-mannered. We are thrilled with
their personalities, temperament, gorgeous looks, and most importantly, with their hips! They both look like they will eventually
get OFA Goods or better at this stage of the game!
