Charity was wonderful to work with and I can’t say enough good things about my little Lenny. He is such a doll! She was and still is! very responsive to any of my questions. I will absolutely get another pup from her when I’m ready to add another Griff to our family. Thank you Charity for bringing my sweet little guy into my life ❤️

Charity was very responsive and made the whole process remarkably easy. She continues to answer questions and you can tell she takes great pride in her pups. If you are looking for a Griff, wouldn’t hesitate for a second.

Charity is one of the kindest, sweetest, caring people I have ever met. To quote my veterinarian, ‘she is a really good dog breeder!’ People are always complimenting me on how sweet Brody is and I think that has so much to do with Charity. It is clear that each individual puppy is treated like her very own baby. I was shocked at how much she does for the puppies before they go to their forever homes. She also sent me videos and photos of my little guy throughout the process. Post adoption she has kept in touch, given advice when needed and pops in just to check-in on her daughter’s fur baby. I highly recommend Gold Country Griffs and if I ever decide to give my baby a brother, I will only do so if they are from Gold Country Griffs. Also Brody is extremely healthy, sociable with other dogs and people, has an amazing personality and is extremely adaptable. I will never be able to thank Gold Country Griffs for my sweet little baby!
