Yes, she's a cream colored golden. We lost our previous golden (Abenaki) two years ago this coming July and the loss was so devastating that I didn't think that I wanted to get another dog .... but I absolutely love these animals and couldn't resist getting one last "swan song" dog!

Congrats!!!

We just got a cream colored golden ourselves in November.

Our last golden was so beloved my wife could not consider another dog that would reminder her of him. I meanwhile would consider nothing but another golden. When my wife found these light colored ones in Tamworth we were immediately sold!

She is 7 months now and a wonderful dog. Its amazing how good she is with our young kiddos!

What a beautiful addition to your family! She's adorable. Lots of fun times are ahead on the island and wherever you go with her. Our Sadie says hello.

From her expression, she has the same feeling as everyone else "when is ice out"

What a great life for a puppy, car rides, boat rides, swims, and an island to defend.

We also have a Euro-Cream Golden. He is 18 months now and loves everyone and everything he meets. He is from Goldenridge Kennel in Maine. Great kennel.

Your dog is beautiful. These are great dogs. Enjoy!!

Also, they are also world class diggers! Beware!

Thanks to all for your posts!

Per the attached photo .... Despite the fact that Yahtzee has only been home for four days it looks as if she's settled into the routine!

Yahtzee had a great first summer out on rattlesnake .... unfortunately we'll be closing up for the winter soon. The following are some current pictures of Yahtzee showing how much she has changed/grown since my original post in April.
