Our little Russian girl, Darby. Oh, how we love this girl! Of all of our English Crème Golden Retrievers, Darby is the most atypical. She has a slightly more slender build and a little longer legs, and her coloring is simply breathtaking. She is extremely difficult to photograph, as the camera seems to pick up gold that the eye doesn’t see. In person, Darby’s ears look as if an artist took a paintbrush and ever so slightly frosted her ears and her spine in the lightest gold. Freshly bathed, her hints of gold are absolutely stunning.
Darby has a very interesting and impressive pedigree. Her mama was brought to the U.S. from Russia and comes from very famous English Cream Retrievers lines, including Dream Max and Tallygold. Her grandfather is an extremely accomplished golden retriever, earning both his International Field Trial Diploma and championships in Skijoring!
As for her personality, there is something very special about Darby. My dear friend Monique constantly tells me, “You know, Darby is really my dog, she just lives with you.” My parents came to visit and my Mom held 4 month old Darby in her lap for hours on end. My sister-in-law asked me if there was any way I could part with this dog. My sister has chosen Darby as the dog she someday wants to have. Suffice it to say, if you decide to come visit us at Nicholberry Farms, prepare to fall in love with Darby!
One of the things I love most about Darby is that she is just such a Golden Retriever. She is zealous about the water, she never tires of fetch, and she would rather you get carpal tunnel than stop petting her. The second she hears a hint of humans, she is at their side, leaning in for some love. She is stereotypically all the best of a Golden Retriever, and yet she isn’t hyper. She likes to come in the house and lie on the cool floor, content to simply be near us. She is a delight and we dearly love our little Russian golden retriever! |
