I'm Bailey K., the breeder behind King's Golden Retrievers located in Mitchell, IN. I am so glad you are here, I have always had a love for Golden Retrievers. I got my first golden in 2007 and quickly realized the special bond you can get with a Golden, they truly are family dogs and the best companions. I hope one of our little blessings can become a light in your home!
Q. & A. with Bailey
Why did you start breeding?
Growing up my family and I bred golden retrievers so it was always in the back of my mind as something I might do again one day. But after lots of research, I knew I would only breed our dogs if they checked all the boxes in producing top of the line puppies that would be set up to live healthy lives!
What makes your program special?
We have 2 goldens who are a part of our family and we only have bred our female because we did all of testing to ensure she would be producing the most healthy puppies. We chose a male that also checks every box you could want in a healthy dog! We take care of our puppies in our home, they are well socialized with our kids & family. They are loved & blessed from birth!
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.

Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Ichthyosis, Golden Retriever Type
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Disease Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
