I'm Nora H., the breeder behind Honora Golden Retrievers located in Copake Lake, NY. I am a small breeding program. I have made it a priority to educate myself as much as I can on the Golden Retriever breed. My dogs are all health tested and produce only the healthiest puppies. I am dedicated to putting in my greatest efforts into my program.

I believe in going above and beyond in socializing my puppies. I also encourage and help my puppy owners get involved in the breed.
