We are a Brisbane based boutique Golden Retriever Stud, breeding a fully imported strain of Golden Retriever from the UK, popularly known as "Field Golden Retrievers".
Field Golden Retrievers are very similar to the original Scottish Golden Retriever bred by Lord Tweedmouth from the early 1800's, just improved in looks, disposition, and intelligence!
We offer puppies that are bred for exceptional health and temperament, as well as beautiful and unique physical features, namely their smaller size and dark rich golden coats. (almost red)
We take great pride in our breeding program, which includes extensive health testing and careful selection of parent dogs. The puppies we produce become wonderful, loyal and loving companions and family members.
Field Golden retrievers are smaller in size, between 20-30kg, and have a shorter coat and the noted to be rich gold colour. They are a high intelligence, trainable, loyal dog has been the focus of breeding for the last 150 years since its creation, making them incredible all-round dogs.

​We have two Stud Dog males who are registered therapy dogs, as well as a number of their progeny who are registered therapy dogs, all highlighting the loving and affectionate character of these dogs.

The Scottish Imports, Scotland being the birth place of the Golden Retriever breed we find it very fitting we have imported our bloodlines from the birth place of this amazing breed, the field golden retrievers are incredible dogs their intelligence surprise us on a daily basis. Our goal is to breed very close to its original breed only to hopefully improve it by using only the best available sires in the world, I personally believe the Golden Retrievers in the UK are superior which is why we have focused on bloodlines from there.
Auchencloch Fairy Tale (Queen Nessy) was chosen after much research with no less than six Field Champions in her first 5 generations. We could not have hoped for a better girl to start my stud, she is everything we hoped for and much more.
We then purchased an exciting male “Drummer” from northern Scotland that arrived 2018, Drummer has magnificent bloodlines being by the very successful sire Riley (Joyful Hugo of Philchris) Drummer is a Delta Therapy Dog and has now obtained his ANKC Obedience title.
