Meet the breeder

I'm Maria B., the breeder behind Red Sky Ranch located in Concho, AZ. Our program is located in Concho, Arizona. We live on almost forty acres in which all of our goldens were happily raised. We find absolute joy in breeding Golden Retrievers. We try are our best to give pups the best health and demeanor. For many years we have raised English Creme Golden Retrievers. The last few years we have added Dark American Golden Retrievers to our program. Please contact us with any questions on how we can serve you, especially by finding a lifelong Arizona Golden Retriever companion. For the past three generations Goldens have been a part of our lives and we hope that we can also help you find your perfect forever pet!

Q. & A. with Maria

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always had a love for dogs and animals. Being raised on a farm, I grew up with an array of animals from cows, horses, to wiener dogs. It wasn't until I grew older where I found the Golden Retriever breed, and then once that occured I never looked back! Golden Retrievers have the best personality, I always say, "Goldens are just Golden!"

  • What makes your program special?

    I purchase my goldens from all around the US and Europe. My English Cream Golden Retriever boys come from Ukraine and one of the top breeders in the Southern territories. Having Genetic Clear lineages and OFA certifications are important to me, and I am to educate other breeders and families on their importance as well.

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

    Our puppies include dark golden, golden, and light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
