In their own words

Van Hendrix K-9 is a professional training facility dedicated to the training of canines for families, corporations and government entities.

The successful training of dogs is accomplished through love, dedication and trust. Dogs are honest and don’t know and don’t understand the idea of “not loving unconditionally.” They give us an honest and perfect world. There is no bad breed. Bad dogs are created through negative human interventions.

Hagen trained his first dog, a mutt, at the age of 6. Hagen’s ability and keen understanding of dogs was further strengthened in 1992, through the rescue of a nine-month-old German Shepherd, Alexander, from a shelter in Virginia.

Before you call a Golden Retriever breeder

  1. 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.
  2. See the mother with the litter, in person or on a live video call, not only photos.
  3. A real breeder asks you questions about your home and schedule, and often has a waitlist.
  4. Never wire money or pay with gift cards or crypto before you have seen the puppy. That is how most puppy scams work.
