Hi! My name is Heart Breaker Deere Hollie. I am a six year old Labrador retriever. I am the fourth generation of the line that my owner has bred. I was born in Kentucky and raised on a horse farm but last year we moved here to be close to my owner’s two sisters. Sure is different than the green grass at home. I have my International Conformation Championship with several Best of Breed and Group Two placings. I have my AKC Rally Title, too! We are presently working on my AKC Junior Hunting Title.

We belong to the Copper State Hunting Retriever Club here in the Phoenix area and hold tests at Mormon Lake and Robin’s Bluff. We took one trip to Chino, California, where I finished my HRC Title earlier this spring. It was exciting, but I didn’t really like our ride in the RV we rented for the trip; don’t think my owners did either!

I live on the Eagle’s Nest side and go for walks with my dad, Heart Breaker Deere John, who is almost 14 years old! He is yellow and I am black. I hone my swimming skills in our pool while practicing my retrieving. My dad doesn’t swim well at his age, so we have a cool life jacket that keeps him afloat.

Sometimes my dad and I get to go for a golf cart ride. We were in the Christmas Carol Parade spreading carols to some of the shut-in folks last December. We love the rides throughout PebbleCreek meeting some of our neighbors and four legged friends! Hope to see you around some day!
