Kara

Kara is a beautiful, calm-natured female with a classic Golden temperament. She adores people, is gentle and affectionate, and moves with grace and confidence. She is a joy to be around, and she thrives on companionship and connection.

Beyond her sweet nature, Lara boasts an impressive four-generation pedigree filled with top-quality European lines. Her sire, Vestafjell’s Quite Knight, is a stunning dog known for his balanced conformation and clean health testing, including clear eyes, ICT, and PRA1 & 2. His lineage includes names like Jako’s Tell Me A Story and Fenwood Elles Belles, both well-regarded for their contribution to elegant structure and soft expression.

On her dam’s side, Kara descends from our own Clear Passion strong breeding program. Her mother, Lasting Impression Of Clear Passion, is a genetically clear female which descends from impressive individuals in the breed such as Enterprise oligarchia, Vestafjell’s Magic Elf, Moondust Higlander, Majik Truth, and the list can continue. She is sired by Apro Of Clear Passion, a dog with an extraordinary show record and a lineage of multiple champions.
