KELLICK

Kellick is the oldest Flat Coated Retriever breeding kennel in Australia & New Zealand; we have owned Flat Coated Retrievers since 1975 owning 2 of the foundation stock one from England & the other from New Zealand. Kellick has had a number of imported dogs over the life of the kennel from New Zealand, England, Scotland and, 3 males from Sweden. Further more recently imported frozen semen from working lines in Finland. Importation is required to refresh the kennels gene pool and keep it healthy. All breeding stock is health checked suitable for breeding. Puppies available occasionally. Our dogs are active in the hobby of Retrieving Trialing. As the breed is a Gun dog and was originally bred for retrieving game when man lived off the land. Here at Kellick we continue to stimulate this instinct in our dogs by competing in Retrieving trials of which is an assimilation of duck shoot using dead pigeons as the game. Our dogs enjoy this hobby as it is in their blueprint to retrieve.
