Golden Badger Kennels

Rita is from a breeder friend of ours, Red Prairie Retrievers here in WY. She has a moderate temperament making her very versatile. Rita has her higher energy moments but is great in the house. We would like to get her involved in a variety of sports including fast cat, dock diving, and more. She is currently only a breeding prospect as she needs to complete her health testing and earn more titles once she's 2 years old before she's an official breeding dog.​​

We are very excited to have added Houston to our home. Houston so far is a feisty little dog who goes out of his way to chase around the other Dachshunds. He has fantastic confidence already and no one is a stranger. He is still young so we are seeing how he grows out and matures. Once he's older we are going to see what all he enjoys to do! We plan to do conformation with him and potentially fast cat, barn hunt, and other fun things. Houston is out of some very accomplished lines so we have high hopes in finding something that he will succeed in. He will not be used as a stud until he is older, titled, and passed his breed relevant health testing.

Karma is from a breeder right here in Wyoming. She absolutely loves attention and to curl up on the couch with us. Karma overall is a very high energy dog. Her pedigree consist of field lines far back with hunting titles. So far she has earned multiple titles in AKC. Currently we are training to get her ready for all the fun sports she'll be participating in. We plan to get her involved with barn hunt, fast cat, and more.​

We were given the opportunity of getting Higgins from a breeder who was retiring and we just couldn't pass it up! He is the sweetest and most gentle dog you'll ever meet. Higgins is a chiller dog who enjoys to spend his time hanging out at home. Although he does have moments where he acts like a young playful puppy. He is a great representation of the breed standard structurally. He doesn't have much interest in the show ring and that's just fine with us as we believe our dogs should enjoy what they do. We do still occasionally enter him in some smaller local shows but he spends most of his days enjoying himself at home. He is out of some accomplished lines with some influence of Russian lines on his sire's side. Higgins has been working towards some simple companion titles and farm dog. We hope to try to see if he enjoys some fast cat or barn hunt soon! ​ Higgins is available for stud service to approved females via live cover, fresh, or frozen.

Nala is one of the dogs that we really go into Titling with. She truly has amazing drive and work ability. She's a very biddable dog that picks up new behaviors very fast. Nala also has an amazing on and off switch. She is out of a breeder in SD. We are still trying to actively participate in things with her in between whelping. We have started to train to try to obtain her rally novice title. So far she has gotten to participate in barn hunt, fast CAT, farm Dog, and companion titles. As well as some agility fun at home. We also plan to keep doing fast CAT with her as she absolutely loves it and go for her FCAT title. Nala herself is not a dog that'll do well in conformation so we are trying to prove her in other venues. We think she will produce good sport/performance prospects and active puppies!
