The Name: "Finn", was so named because like Murphy (our first flat coats name) means “hound of the sea” in Irish, so does Coovara. We wanted to tie things in as Murphy was the instigator of our love affair with Flat Coated Retrievers! Unfortunately their friendship was to be short lived as we lost Murphy quite suddenly to cancer when Finn was just 5 months old and Murphy was 8.
Finn was our first puppy to come from the record making Flat Coat Kennel "Bushman" in Melbourne Victoria. Finn was raised and socialised by Peter Kennon, who also picked him as the "Pick of the Litter".
Finn is maturing into an upstanding, handsome dog with an awesome attitude to showing. He has an endless supply of energy, great strength and very friendly nature to both people and other dogs - especially puppies!
At Tauranga in October 2009, Finn gained his final Challenge needed to make him the 33rd Bushman Champion and our VERY special FIRST! We are so lucky to have this great dog and are enjoying his successes as he "matures".
