Ike Jon Goldens
Meet the breeder
I'm Kaylene C., the breeder behind Ike Jon Goldens located in Berrien County, MI. We raise adorable, affectionate, versatile English Golden puppies, and give them the best possible start for a life of companionship and love! We devote our time, energy, and efforts to each litter to ensure our puppies are properly socialized from the moment they are born and prepared to excel in their forever homes.
Q. & A. with Kaylene
Why did you start breeding?
We love the English Golden Retriever breed. We got our first puppy from a close relative who bred English Goldens. Our dogs have brought us so much joy and happiness that we wanted to give back to them by producing the highest quality dogs and providing them a wonderful life with wonderful families. We truly love our puppies and know you will, too!What makes your program special?
At Ike Jon, we produce excellent companions. We understand the importance of dog health, temperament, and structure, and every breeding decision is made accordingly. We are very dedicated to what we do and what we are trying to achieve as breeders. We work with passion, heart, and integrity, and we truly want what's best for the English Golden Retriever line.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
