Palton Golden Retriever Dog - Hector

PALTON’S HECTIC TIME

DOB: 26.01.08

HIP Score: 10:9  Holds current clear eye certificate.

Hector is one of Thyme’s thirteen puppies, who all survivied in January 2008. We also retained Hector’s sister Palton’s Somewhere in Time.

He has a superb temperament, is very loving and extremely well behaved. Hector had a superb start to his show career by qualifying at his first show The Welsh Kennel Club, followed by wins at ECGRC 1st MPD & BDP , Welsh Kennel Club 1st MPD, Boston & District CS 1st PD and 2nd Junior and also several Best Puppy Awards at Open Shows, including BOB and RBOB.

He thoroughly enjoys his outings and shows like a real trooper and is a joy to live with. (See results page for further information).

Hector is at stud to approved bitches.

Critique:

Palton's Hectic Time, 10 months male & the most mature of the three. Well made, plenty of bone & substance, broad skull, correct ratios, dark eyes set aprt, correct earset, straight forelegs down to good feet, forechest & chest developing well for age, moderate rear angles with hoks wewll let down. Although a little loose in front movement, he moved true behind and carried his tail well BP, shame he didnt stay for the group.
