I'm Holly C., the breeder behind Homeward Bound Goldens located in Orlando, FL. Hi, I’m Holly…
I got my first Golden in college and I fell in love with the breed! I love their playful nature, their loyal love and their beauty!
We live on a 20 acre farm with many kids of animals and have plenty of room for all of our dogs to exercise. Our dogs all live in our home or a guardian home. They do not live outside, nor are they ever in a kennel. They are welcome in our bed and on our sofas. (Be careful where you sit!) 😎
I raise our puppies in our home, they are well socialized, around children on a daily basis and turn trained (not potty pads)
We include our adopting families in the pregnancy, birth and first 8 weeks of their puppies life through our social media page!
Q. & A. with Holly
Why did you start breeding?
We got our first golden without any thoughts of breeding. He then grew to be absolutely beautiful and have the most amazing temperament and we knew he needed to make more like him.
What makes your program special?
Our dogs are NEVER in a kennel. They all live in our home and sleep in our bed. All puppies are kept In our home. Our dogs live in a 20 acre farm and are good with children and other animals.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
