Oaf is owned by Nathan Moule and is the foundation stud for Mount Diablo Golden retrievers.
From Nathan -
Oaf is almost 10 years old and still competing in seniors at dog shows. Oaf has earned the AKC titles of Champion and Grand Champion.
Oaf started his show career at 2 years old. He finished his Championship and Grand Championship quite quickly in 16 shows with one 4 day show in New Mexico winning four major wins in one weekend.
At almost 10 years old, Oaf is extremely healthy, extremely active, and is still producing quality puppies.
Oaf loves to go up to the mountains and go for 2 mile runs. We usually go twice a day. He loves the snow! I’ve see him fall asleep in the snow. Oaf loves to play with his 4 "sisters" and tolerates his "brother".
Oaf and his "siblings" are the official mascots of the Eproson House in Twainhart. They love him there!
How Oaf got his name; I like to see my puppy's personality before I name them.
Picture a 3 month old puppy with a 4 foot stick running through a doorway at full speed. After flipping over from said stick not fitting through the door, bouncing off of a wall and landing next to the couch and him saying “oaf” upon hitting the couch, well, I had to give him that name. He was always doing funny stuff, so the name stuck.
Oaf passes on to his offspring that famous thick golden retriever head he’s known for and a gentle disposition to his pups with a little spice/attitude mixed in.
Oaf and I, after 10 years together, are basically brothers. Neither of us listen to the other.
Oaf is my brother.
