I'm Leanne B., the breeder behind P&C's Golden Dreams located in Fort Worth, TX. Just starting out.. My intent is to provide new families with all around healthy, good natured loving family members. They can be field trained, service or therapy members. Noel has an excellent temperament and I choose studs that have the same loving temperament. Note:Light boy not her stud.
Q. & A. with Leanne
Why did you start breeding?
I though long and hard about this because first and foremost Noel is my constant companion. She is my baby. She's not just a "breeder" to me. I will keep my program small so I can focus on breeding healthy, loving family members. I wanted to share my love of this breed with others as I know now there is no love like that of a golden.
What makes your program special?
I am striving to breed fully health tested loving family members that are well rounded. Whether the owner decides to hunt, rally, agility, train for service work or therapy is entirely up to them . Well rounded, temperament tested dogs can do it all with proper training. My girl LOVES to dock dive.. but it's personal because she loves it. Ribbons are not my thing. I want my dogs to be happy.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
