O'Quince's Rose of Happiness CGC

Our Dear, Sweet Rosie

Picture
 Rose was a beauty and her sweet temperament was by far her strongest attribute. She was a quiet deep thinking, very intelligent girl with willingness to always please. Rose was a certified Therapy Dog which she loved above all things.  
She carried the genes for strong scent detection like her father, Am-Can CH. Nitro’s Boy Wonder, TDI, CG, “ Robin” as we all know him. He received the 2009 AKC Search and Rescue award. Her grandfather, BISS Am & Can CH. Pulali’s Stetson Fits, SDHF, “Stetson”, was a Top Twenty Golden for 3 years and received a Judges Award of Merit (JAM) in 3 National Specialties, A Multiple Specialty Winner Of Best Of Breeds.

A Story About Robin, Rose's Sire

LAW ENFORCEMENT
Robin – Golden Retriever owned by Mary & Joseph MacQueen of Frewsburg, NY
Robin, a six-year-old Golden Retriever, is a police narcotics, missing persons and human remains detection dog, who gives true meaning to the police motto, "protect and serve." Keeping streets safe from drugs and hunting for missing persons, are just a few of this dog’s talents. He and his owner Mary MacQueen work for the Salamanca Police Department and the Cattaraugus County Sheriff’s Office. In 2009 alone, Robin has been responsible for getting about half a million dollars worth of dangerous narcotics off the streets. The pair also assists with searches for Kinzua Search Dogs and the Southern Tier Regional Drug task force. Robin and Mary were recipients of the 2008 Police Officer of the Year award for the Salamanca Police Department. In addition to his work in law enforcement, Robin is also a therapy dog, AKC Canine Good Citizen, AKC Champion of Record, and the recipient of the Golden Retriever Club of America’s Show Dog Hall of Fame title. When Robin’s busy schedule allows, he also leads local parades, visits hospitals and nursing homes, and makes trips to schools to educate students about the dangers of drug abuse.
