    I was surprised with how easy my first week went with my puppy that I got from Lynn. Throughout the whole waiting period and even after picking him up, she has been very friendly and responsive, answering any questions I had. The puppy I picked up has exceeded my expectations, he already understood to stand at the door to go outside to potty, and quickly mastered the commands to sit and go to his kennel. Lynn’s pups have an excellent temperament and it is obvious she cares very much about them. Would highly recommend.

    We got our Male Golden Retriever puppy from Lynn at Golden Care Golden Retrievers. We met Lynn and our puppy with his Mom and Dad on FaceTime the day after he was born. Every Sunday Lynn sent us a picture of our puppy with an update. We got to watch him grow and develop. When it was time to bring him home he came home with a toy and a bag of dog food he was used to eating. He was basically potty trained already as well. Lynn and her family do a great job! We love our new baby and so glad to have him in our family!! Thank you Lynn!!

    I did a lot of looking around after losing my sweet Ruby, and I was most impressed with Lynn. Lynn is the absolute best breeder I have run across. Communication was excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed the weekly picture updates of my puppy she sent. Her dogs are also very healthy looking and well taken care of. I have had the best first few weeks with my new lifelong companion Winter!

    Lynn was great to work with. Our Purple golden, now named Murphy has been amazing. He’s been with us about 2 weeks, sleeps through the night and fits in with our fur babies perfectly. He’s smart, playful and has brought our family so much happiness. He sits when he is told and sits by the back door when he wants to go to the bathroom. We highly recommend Lynn to anyone considering purchasing one of her Golden Retriever puppies.

    Lynn is amazing . She was extremely kind and responds quickly. My sweet boy Jax is the sweetest most loving pup you can tell that Lynn and her family takes very very good care of them before they are ready for pickup.As a first time dog mom Lynn provided me with a goody bag with info that will help me and my family as we take on this new journey.This has been the best decision I have ever made he really is my best friend . I could not be more in love .

    My wife and I spent quite a bit of time researching where to find the right family pet. After reading the glowing reviews for Lynn at Gold Care Golden Retrievers, we felt confident that if our experience was anything like others’, we’d be in good hands—and we were absolutely right. From the very beginning, Lynn was responsive, kind, and informative. She answered all our questions, welcomed our ideas for preparing for pickup, and kept us updated with new photos every week. Throughout the waiting period, she continued to offer helpful advice and reassurance, which made the entire process feel smooth and personal. One of the biggest differences we noticed was how well-adjusted our puppy was from the moment we brought her home. Because Lynn raises her puppies in her home—alongside her family and other pets (including a cat, goat, and tortoise)—our cream Golden came to us already comfortable around people, animals, and household noises. She rode perfectly in the car on the way home, settled in quickly, and adapted to our routine with ease. We’ve now had her for a week, and I can count her potty accidents on one hand. I credit this to Lynn’s early training approach, including allowing the puppies access to a doggy door so they learn to relieve themselves outside. At just eight weeks old, our puppy is already barking to let us know when she needs to go out! She’s also calm and confident—rarely barks, loves her crate, and only wakes once during the night to go outside before going right back to sleep. She even got along beautifully with our outdoor cat from day one. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a more wonderful puppy. Lynn clearly loves and cares deeply for every dog she raises, and it shows. We would recommend Gold Care Golden Retrievers to anyone looking for a healthy, happy, and well-socialized new family member.
