Q. & A. with Karla

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We fell IN LOVE with our pet Golden! We wanted more! LOL. And we wanted to show and share this incredible breed with others. We love all the characteristics of our Golden Retrievers - the unconditional love, the goofiness, the cuddles, thew sweetness and the silly love. And I get a little tear in my eye when we are able to send one of our cherished pups to a loving home.
  • What makes your program special?

    We are committed to only breeding dogs that meet the strict guidelines for quality and for improving this wonderful breed. PLEASE SEE OUR PEDIGREE on our WEBSITE! Our pedigree includes numerous AKC Champions and Grand Champions. We produce puppies that are excellent representations of the breed. We love our puppies and want to find them a loving home!
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
