Dawn has been wonderful in that I can text her with questions anytime and she has been very responsive and has helped us through getting Kiki comfortable in her new home. My girlfriend and I are very happy with Kiki being a new member of the family if anybody is looking for a puppy I would recommend to go through Dawn as she has been very professional

Dawn was quick to respond and never hesitated to answer any of my questions big or small! She spoke to me and my partner on the phone for 30 minutes answering all of our questions and sharing her knowledge with us. The puppies were obviously loved and well cared for. We travelled over 5 hours to pick up our girl from Dawn! She was healthy, happy, and still is! I would highly recommend Dawn to anyone who is looking for a golden puppy that is coming from a breeder who cares!

My experience with Dawn from Golden Gems was truly amazing. She was extremely responsive and made the entire process very easy from start to finish. My puppy is beautiful, healthy, and clearly very well cared for. I can tell Dawn takes excellent care of her litters because Magnolia is such a well-behaved and sweet dog. I also want to mention how quickly Dawn answers all of my questions and how she continues to check in on Magnolia even after I brought her home. I love that, and it really shows how much she cares about the wellbeing of her puppies. I highly recommend Golden Gems to anyone looking for a responsible, caring breeder.
