In their own words
We are proud to raise happy and healthy AKC Golden Retrievers. We strive to find the best home for each pup. Our adult dogs have been tested for genetic health issues and each are cleared. Please see the guestbook on our website and do not hesitate to call with questions
Further, we know that there have been a few negative reviews posted on this site. Please know that dogs can have medical issues that are not always genetic, but in fact environmental. The pup that suffered horrible renal dysplasia was born from our sweet Maggie. We did all of the genetic health tests. All clear. I finally found out that Maggie was prone to uterine infections. Her sweet pup did not develop properly. Maggie is now rehomed and living well. Please visit us.

Before you call a Golden Retriever breeder
- Health results for both parents. Good Golden Retriever breeders test for hips and elbows, an eye exam by a veterinary ophthalmologist and a heart exam, and show you the paperwork.
- See the mother with the litter, in person or on a live video call, not only photos.
- A real breeder asks you questions about your home and schedule, and often has a waitlist.
- Never wire money or pay with gift cards or crypto before you have seen the puppy. That is how most puppy scams work.
