Why did you start breeding?
Our decision to breed Zoey came from the joy she brings to our family every day. Her loving temperament, intelligence, and gentle nature make her a wonderful companion and excellent with our children. We wanted to share those qualities with other families and help raise Golden Retrievers that will be cherished members of their homes.What makes your program special?

We carefully health test our dogs through OFA clearances and DNA screening to help ensure the best possible start for our puppies. Raised in our home alongside our three children, each puppy receives daily love, attention, and socialization to help them grow into confident, well-adjusted companions.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
