Getting a puppy from Elane

Elane has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

Elane partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 7 weeks old.

“At Blair Family Goldens, we believe every puppy deserves the perfect family match. Around seven weeks of age, each puppy participates in a professional temperament evaluation with an experienced trainer. We carefully assess personality traits such as confidence, energy level, sensitivity, affection, and adaptability to help place each puppy in the home where they will thrive. Whether a family is looking for a calm companion, an active adventure buddy, or a potential therapy or service prospect, this process helps us make thoughtful, personalized matches for both our puppies and their future families.”

Larry, dad
Golden Retriever
About Larry
Larry may have been named after Johnny Lawrence from The Karate Kid, but this boy is more love bug than tough guy. He is absolutely gorgeous with a beautiful head shape, a rich golden coat, and the kindest expression that instantly draws people in. Larry has an incredibly gentle and affectionate nature that makes him a favorite everywhere he goes. As a therapy dog working with hospice patients, he brings comfort, calm, and smiles to so many people, and children are naturally drawn to his sweet personality and patient demeanor. Whether he’s leaning in for cuddles or quietly sitting beside someone who needs him, Larry has a special way of making everyone feel loved.
Polly, mom
Golden Retriever
About Polly
Polly is the definition of a gentle soul. She has the sweetest, calmest temperament and a way of lovingly looking into your eyes that makes you feel instantly comforted and understood. As a certified therapy dog, Polly spends time with hospice patients, where her soft presence and intuitive nature bring peace, joy, and companionship to those who need it most. She is incredibly nurturing, affectionate, and patient, with a natural ability to connect deeply with people. Whether she’s working or simply cuddling with her family, Polly’s loving heart shines through in everything she does.
