Q. & A. with Stefanie
Why did you start breeding?
Growing up, I was raised with golden retrievers. I have always had a special place in my heart for them. To be able to give the joy that I had as a child growing up with a golden to other families is such a blessing for me.
What makes your program special?
Our litters are raised inside our home with our 3 children.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are dark golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
