Wakunpa Golden Retrievers is a small kennel at Longwood in North Central Victoria, approx 2 hours from Melbourne CBD.
My husband and I relocated to Longwood in 2009 with horses and our 2 small dogs.
I have adored Golden Retrievers from afar for most of my life but was not in the position to provide a suitable home.
I got my first Golden Retriever in 2012 , Crystal, Iamgoldn Moment in the Sun and there started my journey in breeding and showing. Oscar, Fernfall Time Traveller also became a part of our family in 2014.
In 2015 we bred our first litter of puppies and added Time, Wakunpa Moment in Time to our family.
2019 promised to be a big year at Wakunpa with the addition of our cheeky Gretel ‘ Fernfall The Sound of Music’ to the show team and plans for both Crystal and Time to have litters. The girls did not disappoint, with Gretel being successful in the show ring and Crystal and Time proving themselves as typical wonderful Golden mums, they have now retired from breeding and have become ladies of leisure, living their best lives in pet homes.
2020 brought many challenges including cessation of dog shows and subsequent halt to Gretel’s charge to her Australian Championship Title as well as disappointment with breeding.
I had a much better outcome in 2021 as shows recommence with strict COVID regulations and we got back to breeding.
I added Wakunpa Moulin Rouge - aka Audrey ( Gretel's daughter) and Fernfall Strike a Pose - aka Heidi, to the team at the beginning of 2022 and looking forward to a bright future at Wakunpa
My main objective is to breed sound Golden Retrievers that carry the true Golden Retriever temperament. I am a genuine dog lover and care about the breed and where my pups go to live.
I am a member of Dogs Victoria, ANKC and the Golden Retriever Club of Victoria (GRCV).
Remember a Golden Retriever has a lifespan of 12 -14yrs of age. Think carefully, would a Golden Retriever suit your family and lifestyle?
My Goldens are raised as part of my family.
I only breed from dogs that carry all the relevant Health Certificates including Hip, Elbow ,Eyes and Hearts and DNA
Anyone interested in a litter from Wakunpa I have asked they complete the Puppy enquiry form in Contact Us.
I am hoping to have another litter in February 2023
