October, 2002 - Cooper at Croft Lake - very handsome at 5 1/2 yrs old!

September, 1999 - New International Champion!
Cooper is a Golden Retriever, light-golden in color, whelped on April 17, 1997. On July 22, 1998 Cooper was Pet of the Day! Check him out on their Pet of the Day archives. That's a very cool site, in our not so humble opinion! <grin>

In Feb, 1999 Cooper's daddy Arsey made it into the Show Dog Hall of Fame!! We are all very proud. You can get more info about Arsey from the links below. Arsey was also Mr. April in a 1999 Golden Retriever calendar.

24 months - Croft Lake
Cooper has a wonderful temperament. He is gentle, loving, and obedient, with a lively exuberant streak. He loves to swim, hike, climb rocks, catch frisbees, and loves to be massaged (then again, who doesn't?). He is training for his obedience title, shows in conformation, and does agility. One of these days he may also be a therapy dog.

Cooper's Pedigree and clearances (on k9data.com).
His hips, eyes, and elbows are clear.

Point Reyes
15 months - Point Reyes
He wasn't allowed on the furniture as a puppy, but I'd say he won us over...

    Cooper's litter had a Fabric theme, which is why his AKC name has the word 'Tapestry' in it. Some of Cooper's littermates:

  • Chardon's Full Flannel Jacket (Caliber)
  • Chardon's Chantilly Lace (Gemma)
