History

We are Lisbeth & Tomas Larsson and we live in a link-attached house in a town called  Linköping.

At the end of the 80's when our two sons had matured we bought our first Golden Retriever.

The  interest in working with the dog was aroused at the puppy meetings that the breeder Helena & Weine Andersson held regularly during the first year and it was there we discovered Goldens many abilities.

Libitum's Martello our first Golden, had all the qualities we wish a Golden should possess.

 Because of our poor knowledge, he probably did not preformed as well as he otherwise would have done.

We began to train him in blood tracking, and he started in quite a few tests with very good results.

He was also used in real hunting where he used his ability to track down shot animals.

He also got first prize in obedience class II.

When it came to Shows he was not so successful, on the few occasions he was exhibited he ran with joyful stride in the ring and we thought he was lovely.He was faithful , loyal and willing to please, a perfect family pet.

After 11 year he became rather sick, and we had to put him to sleep and there was a big void in our hearts.

Our interest in Golden  we owe to Tello. Today we have three Golden boys living with us. The dogs accopanying us when we visit freinds and relatives.

We spend much time on walks out in the woods. Since we don't hunt ourselves we are assisting other people who do hunt,
