Q. & A. with Emily
Why did you start breeding?
I grew up with Golden Retrievers since I was little. I have a degree in Veterinary Technology and started breeding while working at the vet clinic.What makes your program special?
My puppies are raised in my home with me and are well-socialized through daily interaction and exposure to normal household life. I begin Early Neurological Stimulation at 3 days old to produce appropriate early development & enrichment. My adult dogs are bred only once a year, and all breeding dogs undergo comprehensive genetic health testing to help support the health & quality of each litter.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
