About Jennifer

Golden Retrievers in OntarioJennifer started into the world of dogs at the age of 16 when she and her twin sister, Judy Taylor of Skylon Kennels, had a litter of Collies. The two of them came up with the kennel name Chrys-haefen which means ‘Golden Hideaway’. Shortly after that they had a litter of Golden puppies and she hasn’t look back. They have since separated their breeding programs but still work together in their efforts to better the breed.
