I'm Kasey B., the breeder behind Retired! Powderhill Goldens - Shoreline located in Old Saybrook, CT. My family has over 40 years of experience breeding dogs. My husband and I are both LCSWs who love animals. Our children play a huge role in our breeding program. They are constantly interacting with and socializing the puppies.

awesome. very communicative, kept me in the loop the entire way, had lots of opportunities to get updates on dogs, had a live stream of the puppies before pick day. Kasey was a rockstar and I'm really glad we found her as a breeder. We're super happy with our new puppy and it would not have been possible without her!
