Jamie Y.

Breeder of Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers

Meet the breeder

I'm Jamie Y., the breeder behind Kasana Canines located in Greenfield, IN. We strive for 100% satisfaction and prepare our dogs to excel as emotional support/therapy dogs and as excellent family companions. I am an avid member of the Golden Retriever Club of America, the Health and Genetics Committee, and Assistance Dogs International. I work only with service-home programs and am passionate about my work and the goals I aim to achieve.

Q. & A. with Jamie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have been breeding Labrador and Golden Retrievers for assistance dog work since 2007 with a special interest in breeding Golden Retrievers with longevity and working ability. These dogs are such a joy, and I find so much fulfillment in raising and preparing them to thrive as service and therapy dogs for their loving, forever homes.
  • What makes your program special?

    I work closely with the Assistance Dogs International North American Breeding Cooperative through its member programs. I wanted to put my passion for service dogs to good use. Breeding healthy, happy puppies is my way to give back to the breed and the families who need them. I want nothing more than to see each of my dogs and puppies shine.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.
