I'm Rachel G., the breeder behind Paradise Peaks located in Brush Prairie, WA. Hello, my name is Rachel and I am the owner of Paradise Peaks. We are a little hobby farm specializing in Golden Retrievers, Pugs, Nubian goats and Champaign d' Argent rabbits. We are a homeschool family and we work with our animals here on the farm and showing them at the local county Fair. Goldens have been a part of my life since I was a girl and we've had pugs for the last 20 years. They are wonderful additions, so much so we wanted to be able to offer these amazing companions to others. We genetically test our dogs to make sure we have clean lines. We know the value of being able to count on genetics when choosing your next companion. We also work with the OFA for hips with the understanding that how a puppy is raised will play a very large part in hip health but having strong tested genetics is a great foundation. We are located on a mountain outside of Vancouver in Washington state.
Q. & A. with Rachel
Why did you start breeding?
My family bred puppies when I was a kid and I love seeing quality dogs reproducing breed standards that are amazing family additions!
What makes your program special?
My kids and I work together with these dogs. There are family pets first, breeders second. I love the responsibility and work my kids put into these litters. It's definitely a family thing!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Pug puppies include black and fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Paradise Peaks reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Golden Retrievers.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Ichthyosis, Golden Retriever Type
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Disease Panel, Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), PRA, Rod-Cone Degeneration (PRA-prcd), PRA, Golden Retriever 2, PRA, Golden Retriever 1
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
