    Staley and HS Goldens has been fantastic to partner with! Staley will be my first go to when it comes time to consider a new puppy. Staley sent pictures weekly, arranged for puppy transportation, and provided an awesome care package for our new little guy, Leo! Leo is healthy, vibrant and exemplifies the breeds, wonder, curiosity, playfulness, intellect and love. Thank you, Staley! Thank you HS Goldens!

    We are so happy with our sweet Bella! She is confident, playful, smart, and very well-socialized. It’s clear she was raised with great care and love. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful puppy — she’s the perfect addition to our family!

    I have never acquired a new dog from a breeder in my life. And I have ALWAYS had 2 dogs in my home. So after the loss of my best boy Anthony Rizzo (Rizzo) a precious, loving and loyal boy. I knew it was time to add another furry family member. My sweet Louie a Bernedoodle was grieving the loss of his big brother. He was not alone. Anyway I wanted another Golden because of my experience with Rizzo. All I can say is that my experience with Staley was top notch. My puppy Leo Francis has been nothing but pure delight in my family. He is a beautiful healthy happy puppy and so very smart. I am so thankful I came across Staley and was able to add a delightful new little guy to our family!

    Staley was very responsive and answered all of my questions promptly. She took the time to send updated pics and info after the puppies first vet visits. She even keeps in touch with us now after we brought both of our boys home, which is so nice and means a lot to us! Both of our Golden boys are growing and doing great!
