We (Dee Turkelson, Charlie Fippin, and John Fippin) have been breeding Flat-coated retrievers under the Athercroft prefix since about 1980.  Before that, our close friend and mentor, Bonnie Conner, bred Athercroft Flat-coats for about 20 years.

 

 

We fell in love with Cavaliers about 15 years ago when Dee got a tri-color bitch for her daughter.  We could not resist them!  From those modest beginnings, we now struggle for room on the sofa with at least one of every color!
