We look forward to connecting with you!
Q. & A. with Kerry
Why did you start breeding?
I was raised with Goldens and always knew I wanted to breed them. Even through law school, I thought about puppies! I am devoted to doing whatever I can to protect and improve this incredible breed. It is such an honor to preserve the line of these incredible dogs all the while creating companionship for others!What makes your program special?
We are profoundly hands-on. Our puppies are raised in the middle of our home with over the top socialization protocols. Many breeders follow our IG page in order to implement our protocols (we have 120,000 followers), as what we do is both unique and effective. Dozens of our pups serve as therapy dogs in their communities, or are just fabulous, safe, affectionate family members.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
