Hello!

There are six of us: Lina, Renaldas, our daughter Dovilė and three golden retrievers - Bora, Gelma, Skipe.


Dovilė and Bora, Spring of 2007

Skipė (Nenuoramos Arica) is the elder one. She is a curious and agile golden, the first our dog. Skipė is not a show dog. She is only our friend. We raised her and learnt to feed and train the dog, to look after her when she is sick. Living with her we understood how strongly sympathetic, tender and irreplaceable the dog could be.


Skipe, Gelma and Bora, summer of 2008

Gelma (Gelma Vanile) is calm, reserved and obedient golden. She is Dovilė's true friend: together they attended Junior Handlers School, took part in Junior Handlers Competitions.
Gelma Vanile is the first our dog with champion tittle and the foundation bitch of our kennel.

Bora (Bora Balta Letena) is a "child" of our kennel. She is a nice and sweet Gelma and Voitto's (NordJW-05, FIN, RUS CH Voyage du Bois de la Rayère) daughter. Bora is Inter Champion (C.I.B and C.I.E), Baltic Junior Champion and Baltic Champion. She is the first golden retriever of our country, who got working certificate in Lithuania, who took very strict  exam of Lithuanian Hunters Organization.

Certainly, the dogs oblige us: we try not to linger after work, we go for a walk in any weather, even nasty or cold, we bathe and brush them. There are concerns, but all of them wear down compared with the good emotions, which our goldens' quietness, dignity and liveliness give us. It is so lovely to touch their fluffy fur, feel their head gently placed on the lap, look into calm and clever eyes.
Our retrievers live in house with us, they are treated as family members.

We have named our kennel Balta Letena (FCI registered, FCI No 133/07 ). Balta Letena is the white paw. Balta is a symbol of everything good, clear and optimistic.

The first litter of our kennel was born on 8 of January, 2007:
puppies of LT JCH, LT, LV, RUS CH Gelma Vanilė and NordJW-05, FIN, RUS CH Voyage du Bois de la Rayère.

We seek that our kennel puppies would be healthy and golden by nature.

We hope some of them will become show winners, champions, but the most important thing for us is that everyone of them, with a title or without it, is loved.
