After being out of the retriever games for about 7 years due to young children, I will once again be smelling puppy breath! My new Patton pup was born this morning and I couldn't be more excited!!!! While I have never posted before, I really appreciate all of the advice that everyone has posted on RTF over the past year. It really helped me to determine what linage would work best for me.

Pictures, we want pictures. We are a messed up bunch but we do have fun.
Welcome to the board.

Good on you Al for coming back to retrieving. I'm trying to stick with the games AND raise young children and sometimes I question my sanity.

Good luck with your pup.

Regards, Jason.

As an owner of a 2.5yo Patton pup I congratulate you! You're in for one helluva ride, and looking at that pedigree, you can probably expect a pup that will be hell on wheels!

Good Luck
