Q. & A. with Brenda
Why did you start breeding?
I have dreamt of raising all kinds of animals for as long as I can remember. In fact, I wrote a business plan for a kennel & doggy daycare before I graduated high school! Our first golden retriever stole my heart. After experiencing health issues time and again with my family dogs, I developed a passion for breeding responsibly. Our priority is always to improve the golden retriever line.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are family. They live in our home with us, and get to enjoy our 10 acre homestead each day. They go on lots of adventures, while living their best lives! We believe in creating healthy puppies, who are empowered to believe in their own abilities. We raise our puppies on a full curriculum in our home. Puppies are exposed to numerous situations, animals on the homestead, and people.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include dark golden, golden, and light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
