I'm B V., the breeder behind Peyton Goldens located in Colorado. We are breeding easy to train, stable, gentle and healthy adults.
Q. & A. with B
Why did you start breeding?
My suburban neighbors were getting dogs that were inappropriate for their lives and homes. I saw a real need for more gentle, calm dogs that fit with modern lifestyles. English Cream Golden Retrievers, especially well-socialized ones, fit the bill.
What makes your program special?
My pups are whelped in my bedroom. Play in my living room, and are given opportunities to explore surfaces, textures, people, and eventually the outdoor, natural world. I follow all the Avidog guidelines to create outstanding dogs. Each one is my pet until they become someone else's pet.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
