ABOUT SANDAR GOLDENS

In 1963 I visited the SPCA that was in my neighborhood.  I did this
often and had adopted a few dogs from them. This time a saw a
Golden Retriever and fell in love.
She was already spoken for so I went home and replyed to an ad in
the LA Times and bought a puppy on time payments.  I must have
had an eye for a good dog from the start as she was the pick puppy
in her litter.  I started showing her in obedience matches and then in
licensed shows and also in breed shows.  She usually scored in the
top 5 and was the 2nd highest scoring in a Mexico show.  

We were also picked to compete in the Top Dog OB competition
when I was in Valley Hills OB club. We did not continue in breed as
she had some white on her  which was common at that time.
I did breed her to a good dog owned by Lorne Thompson,
LLOQUE YUPANQUI.  
I was working for him then as a dog groomer in his shop in Thousand
Oaks.  He was breeding and showing Goldens which gave me a
great start. I kept 3 pups from her first litter –

AM/MEX/CAN CH.  SANDARAC RANDI
AM/MEX/CAN CH.  SANDARAC BROOKE
&
MEX CH.  SANDARAC TEAK  (Points toward his AM CH)

I learned from experience and by watching and asking a lot of
questions.  I did not always do what everyone else was doing as far
as breeding went.  I had my own ideas and wanted to breed the best
possible Goldens for conformation, health and temperament and
also had a look in mind.  This started happening when I bred to AM.
MEX.CAN CH. CAL-VO’S HAPPY AMBASSADOR.  He was an Import
and I was one of the only ones who liked him!  He became very
popular when they saw what he had produced with my girls.
I also bred to a bitch sired by an ENG.Import -  CH.CHAMPAGNE’S
GOLDEN BOY, called Mr. White.
I have always preferred the “look” of the Imports above the Am bred
Goldens and have had white and cream colors along with the regular
gold colors since 1964
