I'm Nancy L., the breeder behind Golden Noses, LLC. located in Orange County/North San Diego County, CA. I am passionate about what I do, I don’t breed for color, but I do breed for intelligence, healthy traits. My pups are raised in my home with 24/7 care, until they go to their new families. I have high expectations for my puppies and make sure to place each one with an enriching and loving family.
