I'm Carrie P., the breeder behind On The Sunny Side Pavey Farms located in Grant County, IN. I work hard to produce healthy, happy Golden Retriever and German Shepherd puppies, and I take great pride in my breeding program. I want to make the transition from my loving home to yours as seamless as possible by giving personal attention to each little pup to ensure it is well-rounded and prepared to excel in its forever home.

We were casually looking for a playmate for our 2 month old Miniature American Shepherd. We liked to get a fun and friendly dog and Carrie had the perfect Golden Retriever, named Request "aka Holly". We inquired and Carrie was quick to respond. Also she was making a trip to our area and brought Holly to us. A great convenience saving us a drive there and back-several hours. Holly has been a great addition to our family. She is soooooo cute. We get compliments, all the time, on walks. So far, this was a great experience overall.

We have had—and continue to have—a truly wonderful experience with Carrie at On The Sunny Side Pavey Farms. From the very beginning, she took the time to help us choose the perfect puppy for our home, and her guidance didn’t stop there. She has continued to offer thoughtful, knowledgeable advice as we’ve navigated raising our little one. Our sweet “Annie Rowan” has been an absolute joy. She is happy, playful, and has been incredibly healthy and active from the very first day we brought her home. It’s clear she was raised those first 12 weeks with exceptional care and love. Working with Carrie through Good Dog was also a blessing. The entire process felt supportive, transparent, and trustworthy from start to finish. We truly believe we have one of the most beautiful Golden Retrievers imaginable, and we are beyond grateful. We wholeheartedly recommend On The Sunny Side Pavey Farms—Carrie’s knowledge, dedication, and genuine care make a difference.

We got our puppy Bandit from Carrie and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the beginning, you could tell how much she genuinely cares about her dogs and where they end up. Bandit came home healthy, happy, and already so well loved and he’s doing amazing! He has the best personality and has fit right into our family. Carrie was so kind, easy to communicate with and made the whole process feel comfortable and exciting.

Carrie was AMAZING to work with! She was so helpful throughout the process and helped us find our absolute dream dog in our new little guy Archie! I would 100% work with her again if we want another golden in the future!
