Upcoming Puppies: Ellie × Zephyr
We are delighted to share the upcoming pairing of Ellie and Zephyr—a combination that brings together intuitive companionship, service-potential intelligence, and the joyful Golden spirit our Classic Heritage families know and love.
🌿 Why This Pairing is Exceptional
Temperament Harmony
Ellie’s bright, emotionally intelligent nature is beautifully matched by Zephyr’s calm, grounded presence. Ellie brings joy and connection into every room she enters—quick to learn, full of heart, and endlessly affectionate. Zephyr is a fully trained psychiatric service dog, known for his intuitive ability to comfort, support, and respond to his person with quiet confidence. Together, this pairing promises deeply bonded, human-focused puppies with extraordinary potential for therapy, service, or heartfelt family companionship.
Champion Heritage & Health
This pairing represents the very best of our lineage. Ellie is third-generation Classic Heritage, raised out of our beloved Genevieve × Sutter pairing, with deep British roots and proven excellence in both health and temperament. Zephyr’s European pedigree is equally distinguished, and both parents hold full health clearances (OFA hips, elbows, eyes, heart) and DNA panels clear of breed-specific conditions. This thoughtful combination sets the stage for lifelong health and balance.
Purposeful Companions
These puppies are ideal for families seeking meaningful connection—whether as emotional support companions, potential therapy dogs, or simply loyal best friends. Their intuitive, trainable, and affectionate nature makes them especially well-suited for homes that value emotional depth and gentle, joyful living.
🐾 Our Prediction for This Litter
Appearance:
Expect elegant light cream coats with beautiful feathering, dark pigment, and expressive eyes. Puppies will have strong British conformation, blocky heads, and athletic, balanced structure. Medium to large in size (60–75 lbs projected).
Temperament:
Loving, emotionally tuned-in, confident, and eager to bond. These puppies will thrive in homes with children, other pets, and individuals seeking a dog that “just gets you.”
Trainability:
Incredibly responsive to gentle guidance, eager to please, and motivated by praise. This pairing is ideal for families looking to raise a puppy with therapy or service potential—or simply one that is a dream to train.
Activity Level:
Balanced—up for play, trail walks, or fetch in the yard, but equally content to relax by your side. Puppies will have excellent “off switches” and calm house manners.
💛 Why Families Will Love Them
Ellie × Zephyr puppies will embody everything we strive for at Classic Heritage: devotion, intelligence, gentleness, and heart. Whether you're hoping for a deeply connected therapy prospect, a loyal companion for your child, or simply a dog who lives to love, this litter is a special opportunity.
📅 Estimated Go-Home Dates:
Early Summer - June 2026 (dependent on training tier)

Meet the Parents
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vivienne
Vivienne is a stunning, sweet-natured girl who represents everything we strive for at Classic Heritage. With her gentle spirit, affectionate personality, and beautiful Golden Retriever type, Vivi is the kind of dog who brings warmth and calm wherever she goes. She is deeply intuitive, loving with children, and a joy to have in the home. Vivi is a smaller girl at 55 pounds so we lovingly refer to her as our “pocket pup”.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vivienne’s puppies are known for their social, affectionate nature and their ability to thrive in both active and laid-back family environments.
Dexter: (Chris Ti Touch Of God From Autumn Lake)
Dexter is a truly special boy with a stellar temperament and outstanding physical structure. He has beautiful movement, great bone, a strong topline, excellent pigment, sternum, and layback, along with a bold, broad head that perfectly complements his stocky and powerful build.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dexter is an impressive male with exceptional presence and breed quality, weighing 73 pounds and standing 23 inches at the withers.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beyond his structure, Dexter’s temperament is what truly sets him apart. He is gentle, intelligent, patient, and incredibly loving. Dexter is meant to be a therapy dog and has the intelligence and focus to excel as a service dog. His calm nature and patience with children is remarkable, and he naturally gets along beautifully with other dogs and animals.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dexter has already sired other exceptional litters across the country, consistently producing puppies with outstanding temperaments and striking Golden Retriever beauty.
Dexter is also CHIC Certified for hips, elbows, heart, and eyes and has a fully clear genetic panel, making him an excellent choice for producing healthy, stable puppies for families and working homes alike.
