Meet the breeder

I'm Lori F., the breeder behind Promise Land located in Pasadena, MD. Promise Land is a LLC and inspected by animal control. Located in Pasadena, Maryland, you must make an appointment to visit. Promise Land was established in 2007.

Q. & A. with Lori

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I feel in love with the English Cream when introduced in a special hospital for children. This filled my heart so much I wanted to share that experience with others. This lead our entire family to breeding English Cream Goldens and as my children got older over the years they developed a love for breeding as well and we included other breeds. This is a family business.

  • What makes your program special?

    I am in the medical field for humans. I take a great interest in health not only of people but animals as well. Promise Land puppies are sold with a lifetime of support. If for any reason you aren't able to keep your Promise Land dog please give us the opportunity to find another loving home.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies include blenheim, ruby, black and tan, and tri-color. Boston Terrier puppies include black brindle and white and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

Getting a puppy from Lori

Lori has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

After buyers complete the application and screening process, Lori partners with them to find the best puppy match.

“We don't set up a pick date until puppies have had their vet check at 7 weeks and their vaccines and stool results come back from the lab. This is because, if we have to re-deworm a puppy, it allows us the ability to do so. The date on Good Dog is an estimated pickup date, so there is no confusion. We bring families in to meet puppies when they are 6-7 weeks of age and decide which puppy will go with each family. For the smaller breeds we sell, we make sure the puppy is at least 2.5lbs before it goes to its new home. ”

Price

Connect with Lori to learn more details about pricing.

“The price is different on each breed we do. There is a nonrefundable deposit. The final payment is due before pick up of the puppy. Prices vary.”

Contract & health guarantee

Lori may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Lori offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Lori directly.

All contracts are handled securely through Good Dog.

    Lori is extremely knowledgeable about Goldens and how to best care for them as puppies and throughout their life. I felt very confident moving forward with one of her Goldens because of all the information and guidance she shares. She was easy to communicate with and invited us to a meet & greet with our puppy and see their facilities. Then there’s the absolute angel we brought home. He snuggled calmly in my lap the 1.5 drive home. He is the calmest puppy I think I’ve ever met but loves to play as well. Extremely agreeable demeanor, his default setting is to sit and wait to see what happens or wait for a prompt. Our Sam is a great fit into our family!

    Lori was awesome and highly knowledgeable. You can tell she absolutely loves what she does. She was always responsive and I loved that she sent weekly updates on the puppies, we looked forward to it each week! Definitely recommend! We could not have been more blessed with our Maverick!

    We had a wonderful experience with Lori and couldn’t be happier with our 15-week-old Cavalier puppy. Lori was responsive, transparent, and clearly devoted to her dogs’ health and happiness. Our puppy arrived well-socialized, healthy, and confident, which speaks to the loving care she received. Lori provided clear guidance, complete records, and followed up to ensure the transition went smoothly. We’re thrilled with our new family member and highly recommend Lori to anyone looking for a responsible, caring breeder.

    Lori did such an excellent job of matching me with my perfect golden girl. She was responsive and incredibly knowledgeable about all issues related to puppy health and behavior. My puppy was in great health when I picked her up, and I really appreciated the discount on Trupanion health insurance. You can tell how much Lori loves what she does. I highly recommend her.

    Our experience with Lori at the Promised Land has been wonderful! Lori worked with us knowing we had just lost our beloved Maddie. We had a visit to meet our newest addition to our family and then was able to pick up our Nellie on the 20th of September. Nellie is the sweetest chill puppy. After only a few days she is adjusting to her new home. All of the instructions Lori shared with us has been spot on! We've had dogs our entire lives and this has been the best transition for sure. This is all because of Lori, she's very knowledgeable and truly cares about her pups!! Thank you Lori!
