Q. & A. with Jessica & Cam
Why did you start breeding?
Our Goldens have excellent temperaments, are well-behaved, and are great with children. Our family-raised Golden Retrievers are born, nurtured, and loved at home, and socialized from day one. All puppies are vet-checked, premium fed, & given age-appropriate shots & worming. We put all of our time, energy, & love into each puppy to ensure they are healthy, happy, confident babies & very loved!
What makes your program special?
I decided to become a breeder of my own to share with others the same type of love I have for my goldens.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience in welcoming a new member of the family home. They were so kind and accommodating through the whole process. It was obvious that they cared so deeply about each of those puppies. I highly recommend getting a puppy through River City Golden!
