Missy J's name carries a story -- the J stands for Jackie Cochran, a WWII female pilot responsible for forming
the WASP. She accomplished much in her life as a pilot, including numerous racing records and first for women in aviation, and retired as
a Colonel from the Air Force in 1970. As you might guess from this, Missy J's owners are pilots! The Bonners live in Texas, travel extensively
with their dogs, both hunt, and their Goldens are a big part of their life. Hunt Testing is their new hobby, and Missy finisheed her Master Hunter
in early 2021. There are four puppies from this litter who have now earned that title, with another one who is a Senior Hunter and now showing in Utility obedience.
Missy J has joined the Fern Hill lineup of breeding females. She had her first litter in summer 2021 and will be bred back the same way
when she cycles next -- sometime in summer 2022. We will be handling the marketing and selections for this litter, and the puppies will be sold
as Fern Hill Goldens. They will be whelped and raised by Best Retrievers in Texas, who do a wonderful job with their early puppy raising
program. If you might be interested in one of these puppies, please email me and ask to be put on the notification list.

After getting her home, and seeing how much she enjoyed retrieving, the Bonners decided to try out the
hunt test game. They have been working with a trainer, who took Missy through the basics and is working twice-weekly with
Skip on his handling skills. What a pair! They have now earned their Senior Hunter title as of March 31, 2019, and are going
to start Master Hunter this summer! Congratulations to all, we are so proud of you!
