Meet the breeder

I'm Clark and Leah M., the breeder behind Glacier Goldens located in Eckert, CO. Our dogs are bred for the show ring, field, service, therapy and most importantly a wonderful family member. We strive to make sure every owner has the ability to get the very best out of their puppy.

Q. & A. with Clark and Leah

Why did you start breeding?
I fell in love with breed 40 years ago. I started with training field dogs in the beginning, and then switched to confirmation. I tried to breed to the best Goldens I could and spent many hours on K9 data.com. It paid off when I bred the number 7th Golden in 2013, GCHG Glaciers Ringing In The New Year. I've gone on to breed many AKC champions over the years. For a small breeder i've done better than I could of ever hoped.
What makes your program special?
I'm a Vetrinarian and own a Vetrinarian Hospital. We montior the health of our pups very closely. Our staff help to care and socialize the pups. They are very loved! We vaccinate and deworm each pup, also every pup will be microchipped through AKC Reunite before going to their forever home.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
