We would like to acknowledge the following people for their contributions to our knowledge of raising, breeding and training Golden Retrievers.  Thank you:

• Duease, longtime Dachshund breeder and now Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breeder,  for always being available when we need you and for your vast knowledge of dogs.  It is always nice to have family to rely upon! 
   

• Linda at Foxfire Golden Retrievers for your help when we were getting started and for continually sharing your love and knowledge of Goldens. 
   

• Shirley at Northern California Golden Retriever Rescue for being a good friend and helping us learn to help Goldens in need.  The stories are endless!
   

• Nola and Kevin at Performance Dogs in Action for helping us get to the next level in dog agility! 
   

•  Ann for the beautiful Armada logo and the pet portraits you create.  They are well worth the wait!
   

• Carl, my hunting trainer at the Dobbs Training Center in Marysville, California, for the patience and respect you showed me and my dog.  You made the impossible seem simple.
   

• Dr. Tom Sheriff at Northfork Veterinary Clinic in Auburn, California for being available 24-7 and always having the answers to our questions.  You are more than just a vet; you're our friend. The dedication and kindness you have for animals is extraordinary.
