 Kevin is a charming Golden Cocker Retriever joining our program, and we’re thrilled to have him! Registered with the International Designer Canine Registry, Kevin comes from a strong lineage of Golden Retrievers and Cocker Spaniels. He carries the Embark TT genes for low shedding, making him a great match for producing puppies with cream, light gold, gold, or dark gold coats depending on the female he’s bred with.

Kevin has been thoroughly health tested. His Embark Vet DNA screening shows he is clear of potential genetic diseases. His PennHip evaluation showed a distraction index of 0.4 with a mild, lower-than-average risk for hip dysplasia. OFA testing on the same date confirmed good hip conformation, and his elbows tested negative for dysplasia. A heart exam showed a normal cardiovascular system with no signs of congenital or acquired heart disease.

His patellas were also checked with no evidence of luxation, and his eyes were examined. His report noted a small opacity extending equatorially in the ventral area of the right eye, which our vet is monitoring in hopes he will outgrow it. Because of this, Kevin will only be bred to females with normal OFA eye results. Overall, Kevin has no genetic issues and is in excellent health.

Kevin is a handsome Golden Cocker Retriever who perfectly blends the best traits of Golden Retrievers and Cocker Spaniels. He weighs 28 pounds and stands 17 inches tall, with a cream-colored coat streaked with gold throughout. His fur is fluffy with beautiful feathering, giving him that classic, soft golden retriever look.

Kevin’s ears sit forward naturally, framing his strong head and friendly expression. His soulful eyes are classic golden retriever deep brown, and his nose is a dark brown, almost black. His overall appearance balances elegance and approachability, making him look like a miniature golden retriever with his own unique charm.

Kevin’s puppies tend to inherit his lovely coat colors, ranging from cream and light gold to deeper gold shades. With his gentle, obedient nature and striking looks, Kevin is an excellent sire for our miniature golden retriever program!
