Galvan Goldens
Meet the breeder
I'm Debra G., the breeder behind Galvan Goldens located in Springtown, TX. All of our puppies are bred, raised and loved indoors to produce happy, healthy pets for those seeking a new family companion. In addition to fully health tested parents we do ENS and Puppy Culture and all that we can do to make sure our pups get the best start in life then go to the best homes!
Q. & A. with Debra
Why did you start breeding?
We have always loved dogs and our home doesn’t go without one. After falling in love with a dog early in our marriage who was very ill from a genetic disease that could have easily been prevented with testing we grew passionate about ethical breeding. Sadly we learned that there weren’t many breeders out there doing the things we were looking for and we grew a desire to do so ourselves.What makes your program special?
The time and love we pour into each puppy not only as a litter but also one on one. We make sure each puppy gets time away from their litter with human interaction at minimum 30 minutes a day each.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
