Meet the breeder

I'm Elizabeth (Beth) E., the breeder behind High Road Golden Retrievers located in Seymour, MO. At High Road Goldens, we are dedicated to raising the ultimate family dog. Our indoor-raised puppies receive extensive socialization via ENS, ESI, and the "Rule of 7s." We pair carefully to ensure genetic health and use temperament testing to match you with your confident, loving best friend.

Q. & A. with Elizabeth (Beth)

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I adore Goldens, but finding an ethical breeder was harder than expected. Our own pickup experience was rushed and disappointing, proving that standards needed to be raised. That ignited a fire in me. I became a breeder to ensure no family has to settle. The name "High Road" isn't just a name; it’s my daily promise to prioritize the dignity and well-being of my dogs above all else.
  • What makes your program special?

    We keep our "High Road" promise by raising light golden puppies indoors, underfoot with my 3 children. We utilize a strictly timed curriculum (ENS, ESI, Rule of 7s) to build confidence. Our strategic genetic pairing ensures every puppy is unaffected by hereditary conditions. We prioritize temperament matching to ensure the perfect fit. We don't just raise dogs; we raise family members.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    We had a wonderful experience with Beth. She is very responsible and truly cares about finding the right match. She asked many thoughtful questions and took the time to understand our situation so she could match us with a puppy whose personality fit us. Beth was also flexible and well organized when we needed to pick our puppy up later than 8 weeks, and she provided clear, helpful documents and resources that made us feel confident and prepared. Our puppy was well pre-trained when we picked him up, and we couldn’t be happier with our new family member. We’re so excited for the memories ahead with our puppy! Thanks Beth!

    Everything went perfect. We talked a lot before picking up our new baby and Beth did everything just as she said she would. It was super easy dealing with everything through gooddog.com. I knew I was getting a well cared for puppy.

    Biscuits has been a part of our family for three weeks now and we could not be happier! Beth, at High Road Golden Retrievers, was so wonderful to work with. She was communicative and helpful and how much she cares about the puppies and creating a positive experience for families is evident. We could not be prouder to be a founding family of High Road Golden Retrievers and we look forward to cherishing our new family member for years to come! Thank you Beth!
