Welcome to IslandFlats Flat-Coated Retrievers!
My husband Terry and I have been involved with flat-coated retrievers
since 2000. We acquired our two male flat-coats, Bailey and Logan, from K’Mander Kennels in North Haven, CT. Our bitch, Crystal, came to us from TLC Retrievers in Gasport, New York. Lylah is Logan and Crystal's daughter.
We participate and train actively in obedience and in conformation. We have also dabbled in agility with our dogs and we also compete in Rally obedience.
We are members in good standing in The American Kennel Club,
the Flat-Coated Retriever Society of America, the Northeast Flat-Coated Retriever Club (Margaret: Board of Directors), the Mid-Atlantic Flat-Coated Retriever Club, and the Nassau Dog Training Club - where we serve as Club Vice President (Terry) and Delegate to the AKC (Margaret).
Terry and I firmly believe that regular contact with all our dogs' breeders is of the utmost importance. They are a wealth of information in a variety of areas and a wonderful support system in good times and bad. Through these
breeders and our dogs, we have developed wonderful flat-coat families as well.
On the pages to follow you will learn about our wonderful furkids. Feel free to browse around. Keep coming back as we are constantly updating pictures and what I like to call "News from the Island". If you should need further information about flat-coated retrievers we have a links page to help you along, or contact us at info@islandflats.com.
