Meet the breeder

I'm Iris A., the breeder behind Pizzazz Retrievers located in Granite Bay, CA. Many of our puppies have become exceptional show dogs, and all of them have become excellent family dogs and lifelong friends. Our goal is to ensure every dog that comes from our program is set up to live a happy and healthy life and is prepared for its future role when it leaves our care. We provide each of our pups with lots of socialization and love, and we are dedicated to maintaining responsible breeding policies.
