He was a son of Champion Camrose Cabus Christopher and I became absolutely hooked on the breed that I have now owned for over 35 years. In 1976 I purchased a bitch puppy by Champion Nortonwood Faunus out of Gyrima Bernadina. Unbeknown to me at the time Sue Green had a bitch from the same litter, our paths were to cross again some years later when she had Xanthos Nanouska and then Xanthos Out of the Blue from me. The website has been put together by my youngest son Nick, and will hopefully give you some idea of the stock we have bred over the years. We endeavour to breed, a Golden true to the standard. The acknowledgement of quality proven by their ring success has been a great thrill, but breeding dogs that are capable of working in the field, in obedience or as assistance dogs are additional feathers in our cap and prove what a wonderful breed the Golden Retriever can be. ![]() Heather Morss Blackthorns Rye Common Odiham, Hampshire RG29 1HT Telephone 01252 850537 Email heather@xanthos.co.uk |
