Q. & A. with Kathi
Why did you start breeding?
I bred my first FCR from England and kept the pick girl. I've had 20 litters to date.What makes your program special?
My lines are purely British - one of two purely British breeders in the US. My dogs have done all venues including showing (I've had the number one, two and 3 FCRs in the country multiple times with multiple dogs), I've done field trials and hunt tests with my own dogs and have written a book on field. I've also bred the number ONE agility dog in the country (Granite - MACH 7 SHR STORMWATCH NOR’EASTER SH WCX CD MXJ MX MXB MJB DJ DS BN VCD1 TKA TD) Currently, I own the number 3 all systems FCR - Devon.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

StormWatch Flat-coated Retrievers reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Flat-Coated Retrievers.

Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Patellar Luxation
Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
