Yes, she's a cream colored golden. We lost our previous golden (Abenaki) two years ago this coming July and the loss was so devastating that I didn't think that I wanted to get another dog .... but I absolutely love these animals and couldn't resist getting one last "swan song" dog!

Newbiesaukee · 04-06-2014, 03:29 PM

She is a real beauty. Congratulations.

Greene's Basin Girl · 04-06-2014, 03:39 PM

I think Yahtzee will be taking over the helm as you venture over to Rattlesnake.q

BaileyBecca · 04-06-2014, 03:56 PM

Beautiful ! As they say, every dog should have a home and every home should have a dog. Enjoy your new best friend!

Yahtzee is beautiful. I know she will love it on Rattlesnake and will bring you great joy. I know our Rosie would like to meet her.

winnipiseogee · 04-06-2014, 04:03 PM

Congrats!!!

We just got a cream colored golden ourselves in November.

Our last golden was so beloved my wife could not consider another dog that would reminder her of him. I meanwhile would consider nothing but another golden. When my wife found these light colored ones in Tamworth we were immediately sold!

She is 7 months now and a wonderful dog. Its amazing how good she is with our young kiddos!

What a beautiful addition to your family! She's adorable. Lots of fun times are ahead on the island and wherever you go with her. Our Sadie says hello.

Dad sold the C * C · 04-06-2014, 05:07 PM

From her expression, she has the same feeling as everyone else "when is ice out"

What a great life for a puppy, car rides, boat rides, swims, and an island to defend.

tis · 04-06-2014, 06:04 PM

She is adorable! Have fun with her! Every time someone posts their new puppy it makes me want another one.

Retired Ole Guy · 04-06-2014, 06:40 PM

Lovely young lass. Hope you are happy for a long time together

Resident 2B · 04-06-2014, 10:09 PM

We also have a Euro-Cream Golden. He is 18 months now and loves everyone and everything he meets. He is from Goldenridge Kennel in Maine. Great kennel.

Your dog is beautiful. These are great dogs. Enjoy!!

Also, they are also world class diggers! Beware!

Yahtzee had a great first summer out on rattlesnake .... unfortunately we'll be closing up for the winter soon. The following are some current pictures of Yahtzee showing how much she has changed/grown since my original post in April.
