Tonka is the foundation sire of Harvestime Kennel. Even through five generations, his signature is still very apparent in our pups. Tonka was my dream dog; good looks, brains, incredible field drive, structure. You name it, Tonka had it! I purchased Tonka from Murrayfarm Kennel in Pennsylvania. He was pick puppy from an outstanding litter. He is a light golden with a plush, straight coat, excellent pigment, good bite, impressive blocky head, large bone structure and beautiful movement. Tonka was an easy dog for a novice handler to get titles on. He taught me a lot! He was so eager to please and many judges commented on the wonderful combination of beauty and ability! I easily got his Companion Dog title in the AKC and State level, taking top ribbons in each event. He completed his Rally Novice and Advanced titles even though the jumps were not his favorite thing! Tonka was shown in the conformation ring and earned two Best of Breed placements and is Champion pointed. He also has his Conformation Certificate Assessment and passed with high scores. He also had strong ability in the field and water. At club events when other dogs wouldn’t retrieve a duck that was far out in the lake, Tonka was happy to do the honors. Tonka has had excellent health and is still doing well! He makes his retirement home with the Seim family in Madison. Tonka is now a Certified Pet Therapy Dog and does regular visits to St Mary’s Hospital. He also dabbles in agility and is very active in the Seim home in Madison, WI Here is what they write:
"We adopted Tonka approximately 6 years ago. We were in love with him from the very minute we laid eyes on him. He is a beautiful dog with a personality to match. Tonka is the perfect dog!! Yep, PERFECT in every way. If he has one fault it is that he loves to be petted no matter what you are doingJ
He has been doing therapy work in his retirement to include nursing homes, hospitals (including the psychiatric ward in which only very mild, sound dogs can go), emergency rooms and daycares for mentally challenged adults. He has been at the bedside of those dying and has assisted families of those patients. While he is an awesome at his work he also still loves to play and romp. He loves tennis balls, squeaky toys and lying in his pool on hot summer days. Tonka dabbles in agility and is always a hit at the agility shows we put on at the nursing homes.
The sound of human voices makes his tail wag like no other. He is an awesome dog and we are very fortunate to have him in our family. He is in good health and enjoys his chiropractic visits for his aging bones. He currently shares his home with 2 Golden Retrievers -Harvestime’s Mischevious Molly (12 yrs), Harvestime’s What’s One More Sadie (10 yrs), a Cocker Spaniel and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel."
