The last national speciality she attended was in Asheville, North Carolina, which had an entry of more than 1,000 goldens from all around the country. “A vacation for me is probably going to Golden Retriever Club of America National Speciality.” “Our life has always been centered around our dogs, so pretty much everything we do is because of the dogs,” she said. Eventually they purchased 21.6 acres and built the home they live in today. They used to come to East Charlotte to train their dogs to retrieve on land and water and fell in love with a piece of property on Bean Road, Kathleen said.

After five years, five golden retrievers and two children, they wanted to move where they had more land. The two grew up in South Burlington and started married life owning a duplex home in Shelburne. Courtesy photo.Ĭrangold Kennels in Charlotte is owned by Kathleen and Daniel Kehoe.
