***LITTER PLANS FOR 2012***
Breeding / litter plans for 2012 , fluctuate almost daily, sorry to be so vague guys but when I have 3 females to pick from, with the "time sensitive" breedings I am hoping to do with each of them in the near future and with the fact that as is normal, all 3 of these ladies will come in season at the same time....I am not sure exactly who will be bred and which breedings will take place this year, which will take place here at Camp Joyso, which may take place at in Kathy's care at Sonyc.
I know that must be frustrating for you puppy buyers, but Mother Nature, sometimes just makes decisions difficult!
2012 will see Joyso Sonyc Here We Go Lucy Lu "Lucy" return to the chore of being a mama after having a rest up from her first litter.
Plans are for Lucy to be bred late spring / early summer when she is due to come in season.
Kathy Carbone, of Sonyc Golden Retrievers and I are very excited about this breeding as it allows for line breeding on a part of Lucy's mother's pedigree.
(see Sonyc Golden Retrievers web site link on my links page)
Hopefully, this breeding will give Kathy the Tweet son she is missing in her life.
Tweet is to Kathy what Revel was to me....a very special boy, her heart boy.
If this litter happens here at Camp Joyso, Puppies from this litter will be sold for $1,000.00
If you have any interest in this litter please do not hesitate to contact me.
If this litter takes place at Sonyc Golden Retrievers, interested puppy buyers should contact Kathy.
If this litter takes place in Kathy's care I will be going to Kathy's,when the litter is 8 weeks old to bring Lucy & a puppy for myself home with me.
This year could also see Pebbles bred.
(but only if Lucy has her litter at Kathy's place)
There are a couple of options for studs which I am presently researching.
When / if plans get firmed up, I will post the details here.
This is the year with Shaker being 3 1/2, I have to decide if I am going to breed my lovely red head, or if I am going to place her in an equally lovely companion home.
Shaker has so many great traits to offer but with her old fasioned Golden Retriever type, I am having a difficult time finding just the right boy for her.
If I do find Mr Right for Shaker and do decide to breed her, I will post the details here.
All of these ladies should come in season in the June / July 2012 time range, with pups being born 2 months from then August / September 2012 time range and then ready to go to their new homes October / November..ish.
I wish I could be more concrete, I know this kind of vague information will be frustrating to those trying to find a puppy, but for now it is the best I can offer.

At Joyso Golden Retrievers a great deal of research & planning, time & energy, and of course love & caring goes into each litter produced. As a result there are not a lot of litters produced here.
There have been a total of 14 litters of Golden Retriever puppies produced at Joyso Golden Retrievers in my 20 + years of breeding Golden Retrievers.
The Golden Retrievers I use for breeding purposes have successfully made it through my stringent selection process.
The very basic of which is the passing of the required health clearances of, hips & elbows, hearts & eyes.
When planning any breeding I look for and demand that all the dogs, for many generations behind the breeding, have also passed these health checks. In my mind, this makes for better chances of my producing Golden Retrievers that will also be healthy in these areas.
