((Lori:  Hi Maisie, I saw you already.  I know, I love you.)) 
((Lori Froderman, Dog Breeder)) 
I just love dogs.  They're like your best friend, and you can't 
go wrong with a Golden (retriever).  They are so sweet.  
They really are.  They love everybody.

Loving animals, that's one thing that inspired me, and a lot of 
it has to do with being in the medical field and liking to help 
people.  I like to help dogs too.

If the dogs are too closely related, they shouldn’t be bred.  
We screen hips, elbows, thyroid, eyes and genetics.  So, we 
connect the dogs correctly together, so we’re not putting in 
different types of disease in the dog.

I breed most of my females until they’re seven, and then we 
fix (spay) them.  We keep them in guardian homes.  That 
means I would place a dog with you at eight weeks, grows 
up, stays with you for its lifetime.  When it retires and I fix it, 
you're still going to keep the female because you are the 
parents of that dog.

((Lori:  I don’t know.  Where’s Beckett?  Beckett?  Beckett!  
Yeah.  He’s from Ukraine, and he’s a good guy.  He passed 
all his clearances, got a great temperament.  He’s a good 
male, yes he was.)) 
((Lori Froderman, Dog Breeder)) 
I don't want to sell you a dog, let's just say, that in six months 
to seven months old, you have to have a hip replacement.

I think there are different kinds of breeders.  I don't tend to 
like breeders who get rid of their dogs at six and seven.  
Why not use a guardian home?  If that dog didn't work out in 
your breeding program, spay it, leave it with the family.  
They're still going to love it.

((Lori:  Yes, because you my babies.  And actually, I hold 
them and sing to them sometimes when they’re little too, so 
they get to know my voice.  Dilly dilly!  Come back, thank 
you.  Don’t take a walk.  Yes, you’re back, thank you.  Now 
down.  I love you too.))
