I'm Nancy B., the breeder behind Lagniappe Goldens located in Dallas, TX. We are a family who simply adores English Cream Golden Retrievers.

Q. & A. with Nancy
Why did you start breeding?
We have always owned Goldens but switched over to English Creams about 10 years ago. We became good friends with the breeder who sold us our male Golden and several years later he accepted an international job and decided to close his breeding business. We acquired his champion female to breed and spent a considerable amount of time researching and learning how to breed ethically.What makes your program special?
Our focus on socialization, temperament, and healthy breeding. Our champion dogs are members of our family. We carefully select our new owners and provide lots of suggestions throughout the life of their dog. We enjoy the long-term friendship with our new owners and love keeping in touch. We provide a very personal experience!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
