There have been significant additions to the Golden Retriever gene pool in Canada over the years. Two dogs certainly worthy of note were Dewmist Davenport from Sweden and the Norwegian dog, Mjaerumhogda's Kyon Flying Surprise-- both prolific breeders in their time, and sire of countless champions.
More recently, the following are among those which have been added to the roster of European and Australian imports north of our border:
Baudelaire du Domaine des Rives de l'Erdre
Cheek To Cheek Steve MacQueen
Dream Max Avalon
Dream Max Jorgen Brink
Evidog Jazzman
Fantango Johnny Walker
Giltedge Traveller
Linirgor Must Be Luv
Majik Mr Darcy
Raynox Heart of Gold
Sundowner de Ria Vela
Tramin Fun In The Sun
Trewater Secret Romance
Zampanzar Jungle Joy
No doubt there are many more I've missed. But from this list it is clear that there have been important additions to the Golden Retriever community in Canada. Hopefully both Canadian as well as American Goldens can benefit from these imports. But cooperation on both sides of the border is essential if this is to happen.
And in addition, on both sides of the 49th parallel, the use of artificial insemination using frozen semen from noteworthy European Goldens such as Ronjalee Ragamuffin At Motlaisa, Stanroph So It Had To Be, Mad About You de Ria Vela and Karvin Stay On Top (among others) has added to the mix.
