Q. & A. with Dana

Why did you start breeding?
I wanted to breed healthy Golden Retrievers to the standard and show in Confirmation.
What makes your program special?
Puppies are from GRCH and CH show dog bloodlines, are health tested, including hips, elbows, Heart Echo, eyes, and DNA is ran to make sure they do not have or carry any genetic problems. To make sure you are getting the healthiest puppy possible. All puppies are potty trained, leash trained, crate trained, and sleep through the night when they go home!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
