We breed Chesapeake Bay Retrievers under the kennel prefix Webfoot since 2007, having previously bred in partnership under the kennel prefix Tenarda for 30 years. We have enjoyed many achievements. Webfoot Chesapeakes concentrate on outstanding retrieving ability while also exhibiting sound, dual purpose dogs in the show ring. In 2007, homebred DUAL CHAMPION (Retrieving) Tenarda Firecracker ('Cracker') completed the AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL RETRIEVING TRIAL, being one of 8 finishers, out of 59 dogs. He was BEST MINOR BREED in the Trial. In 2008 AUSTRALIAN CHAMPION Webfoot Bear River won the DOGZONLINE NATIONAL BREED POINTSCORE Competition and also won the RISING STAR Award. In 2009 he was BEST OF BREED at QUEENSLAND ROYAL SHOW. WEBFOOT are proud to be ADVANCE® CHESAPEAKE BAY RETRIEVER BREEDER OF THE YEAR, 2009 & 2010. Webfoot Chesapeakes will make devoted family companions. Please contact us regarding general questions and availability of puppies. Your enquiries are always welcome.

Breeder of the 1st live litter of Chesapeake Bay Retrievers in Australia. Having imported the 1st bitch into this country with Hank and Betty Dobrowolski- 1st female titled Cheasapeake Bay Retriever in Australia and the dam of the 1st Chesapeake Bay Retriever to win a Best in Group in this country. Winning BIG at Brisbane Royal and following it up with 2 more BIGs under international Gundog Specialists - "Rebel" epitomised the quality and character of this great breed.

Many "Tenarda" CBRs have achieved success in several fields of endeavour. Tragically 2009 saw the loss of our beautiful leading lady "Aust Ch Tenarda Firefly" - "Lulu".(Pictured)

In late August 2010 Crowlee No Regrets "Tilly" joined our K9 family and caught the eye of judges in very short order - it will be interesting to see what 2012 holds for "Tilly" and myself as she prepares for motherhood.

2011 saw the arrival of a new little lady - "Brandy" debuted in late March and she is a fun dog to show and is well on her way to her title - special thanks to John and Dan Stafford for this great girl.

2011 also saw the arrival of "Tyler" - Aust Ch Stormbay Pacific Privateer (Imp NZ) and we are grateful to Denise Crowley for letting this fun loving boy come into our lives.

Early 2012 should hopefully see a litter of "Tenarda" Chesapeake Bay Retriever pups on the ground - watch this space!!!!

STOP PRESS : "Brandy" wins PUPPY SWEEPSTAKES at Sunshine Coast Kennel Club - our baby is growing up!!!!!!!

Caledonia Kennels recently moved to Australia from near the Platte River in Colorado USA. We are excited for the opportunity that this move has given our dogs.

Caledonia is a small kennel, but we have hunted over and trained Chessies for 26 years. During this time we have realized the value of versatility in this breed. In 1997 we entered the show and obedience ring. We feel that is important to breed a well balanced dog that can excel in multiple disciplines; this includes being part of the family. Our dogs are included in the duck blind, slumber parties and the show ring.
We test all our breeding stock for cateracts, hips and elbows and the are PRA clear by parentage.

Puppies are due in November 2009. Please see our website for details on this exciting litter.

The Chesapeake Bay retriever is a gundog with a bright happy disposition, courage, willingness to work, alertness, intelligence and a love of water. Stormbay Chesapeakes are all of this plus they enjoy good health, have good coats and great temperaments. The breed started from two shipwrecked puppies and grew to be famous for its duck hunting and retrieving abilities in the cold harsh conditions of the Chesapeake Bay. An all American breed, Stormbay kennels strives to keep all that made this dog what it is, so hunting is a regular part of their lives, along with field trials and showing. Imported bloodlines, rigorous health checks, a focus on working ability and temperament as well as structure come together at Stormbay Chesapeakes to bring you a strong robust retriever, keen to work or play, and be a loyal member of the family.
Puppies available to approved homes. Imported stud dogs available to selected bitches. Started gundogs and older hunting dogs are available to genuine hunting homes, please contact us for more details. Gundog training is also available. Enquires welcome. Stormbay Kennels is owned by Commonwealth Games Shooting Gold Medalist Teresa Borrell, who actively field trials and hunts with all her Chessies.
