    Hello. I lost my best friend Baxter last year in September. I was heartbroken. It was sudden. Baxter was 7 and a half when it happened at the vets, during a normal annual check up and shots. We walked into the vets office and he collapsed right there, before the vet could see him. I was devastated. There was nothing the vet could do after cpr and epinephrine. I looked up golden retrievers eventually, because I knew I wanted another dog to help with the hole in my heart after Baxter. I found a company named good dog and they directed me to a breeder that was close enough to me. Sharon and I hit it off right then and there. Before I knew it she wanted me to have a puppy from her new litter. 13 puppies! I met all the pups, but one stood out, I thought it would be another pup that o saw but, Bosco looked at me and I fell in love. He laid right down beside me and I knew at that moment , he was mine. He’s about to be 7 months old at 45 pounds! He is the greatest joy in my life! I so glad I had the opportunity to meet Sharon and her husband and the puppies. I’m so happy! He runs the house and my heart. Thank you Sharon!

    10 months old now- Kirscha has been the most wonderful addition to my furry family! She’s growing up to be quite the head-turner, and is absolutely brilliant! Her temperament has been a dream, and our veterinarian has been very pleased with her as she grows. I couldn’t be happier with my puppy and with my experience with this breeder <3

    Sharon was fantastic! She was responsive with my questions and provided wonderful updates. My little buddy Kairo is such a good boy, and I couldn't be happier!

    Sharon was very easy to work with and very accommodating with my schedule on our pick up date. She was very friendly and helpful through the process. We love our little Blue Bear! He has a very calm and lovable demeanor. We should have named him Shadow because he is always right beside us. We are already talking about another puppy and I would definitely go back to Retrieve Ranch and Sharon again.

    We love our Willow from Retriever Ranch! She has been an amazing puppy so far. She arrived healthy and parasite-free, and has settled in beautifully. She’s super smart, already picking up lots of commands, and is doing very well with both crate training and potty training. We love her so much!
