Montauk Bay Dogs
Chesapeake Bay Retrievers

Most Chesapeake Bay Retrievers running retriever field trials and hunt tests here in Ontario can be traced to the Montauk line. Montauk Chesapeakes Bay Retrievers are also the foundation stock for numerous kennels in Canada and the US. I have the reputation for producing quality puppies and matching each puppy to the right home. Coat color has no bearing here, temperament and attitude do!

Goals: To consistently produce high quality working and family companions. Bloodlines are selected based upon natural instinct to retrieve, temperament, and trainability. Breeding combinations can be great and they can be bad. I have experienced both...and strive to do my best. Beginnings: I purchased my first Peake from David and Bonnie Joy, Riverview Kennels in 1982. I was looking for a gun dog to retrieve waterfowl and was hunting Eastern Ontario from opening to freeze-up in those days. "Meg" did everything I did including hunting deer, raccoons and raising a young family. She was a great frog chaser which broke up some of the lull's in the hide. Thank you Dave and Bonnie, I will always remember you! My first breeding was to a dog out of Bill Little's kennel, Abelina's Aleutian Cocoa and these pups were named "Northern's". I kept a female "Copper" who is perhaps the most talented dog I have owned and part of the foundation. Man, she was a hell of a gundog with field trial placings. During that time I read a story about a dog called "King of Montauk" and his retrieve on a cripple to win the Open at the first Specialty in 1932. That story inspired me to register "Montauk" with the CKC in 1987 and breed dogs using this name since then. |
