I'm Lizzy D., the breeder behind Rollin' Goldies of Colorado located in Watkins, CO. My breeding focus is temperament and health. Buddy & Cajun are both very sweet yet confident dogs that absolutely love whoever they meet; as are their puppies!
Both parents have passed eyes, elbows, hips, & heart clearances, as well as genetic testing.
Q. & A. with Lizzy
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding because of my mom! She's been breeding for close to a decade and I’ve been very lucky to have learned so much from her. I'm now venturing out on my own with my own vision in mind. Buddy is actually her stud dog. She is located in Eastern Colorado 30 miles east of Denver.
What makes your program special?
My whole life is dedicated to the health and well being of my animals. From where I live to when I work I make sure to raise the best babies for you!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include golden and light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Lizzy was Awesome! She gave me so much advice on how to care for my Golden Retriever puppy. Very responsive. I can tell she took great care of the litter my puppies came from. Highly recommended 🧡
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
