Hoya is the type of Golden that fits the bill for a multitude of golden purposes.  He came out of a healthy litter of 12,  attesting to the productivity of his lineage.  Hoya completed his Senior Hunter title 4 tests in a row by age 2.5 and went immediately into Master tests.  Before the age of 3,  he had attained the very prestigious AKC Master Hunter title,  having been trained and handled by professional field trainer Bob Reckart of Rome Ohio.  Hoya is an excellent house dog and buddy.  Quiet, friendly, handsome and playful,  he's a wonderful companion during his non-working times.  He is a superb hunting dog and is probably most outstanding just doing his job - retrieving waterfowl in all kinds of conditions.  He averages 75-110 ducks per fall,  with very few escapees.  He has easily translated all the skills necessary to become a Master Hunter into excelling at the unpredictable situations found in the duck marsh.  Hoya is a positive representative of how the AKC Hunt Test program has influenced working retrievers.  He is loaded with talent,  yet suitable as a family companion.  You'd love to have him be YOUR dog !  J.
