Meet the breeder

I'm Kiley K., the breeder behind SK Golden Retrievers located in Driggs, ID. We are a family of 4 and work together in our breeding program. Having dogs in our lives is such a blessing. We find so much fulfillment in providing that same companionship to other homes! The loyalty and loving disposition of golden retrievers are simply the best, and something we are passionate about! We put a great deal of effort into raising our litters to ensure our puppy families will have an easy transition with their new pup. We aim to breed calm tempered dark goldens (dark golden and red in color). We do a lot of work with our puppies from day 1 of their lives including daily handling and socialization, sound desensitization, socialization with our other dogs, lots of people and car rides, and we start introducing them to the crate around 6 weeks old in hopes we get a good couple weeks of training them in the crate. We use pellet boxes to litter train them as well starting early (around 3 weeks). We try to temperament test each litter at 7 weeks of age so we can provide info on each of their specific energy levels. All our dogs and pups are very loved on by all 4 members of our family, and we love to see them go to the perfect families!

Q. & A. with Kiley

  • What makes your program special?

    We put our heart and love into our dogs and our puppies. We are very invested in their upbringing, and doing the best job we can to start them out in life with the best! I believe our breeding program is special because its hands on with our entire family, and we are all very involved in every aspect of our program from planning litters, whelping them, raising them, and choosing homes for them. Our number one goal is to provide a good life for our dogs and all our puppies, and that involves good homes and not a life in kennels or solely just for breeding. We feel each of our breeding females should be a member of a family and raised that way.

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

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

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Kiley partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 6 weeks old.

“We allow buyers to choose their pups in order of deposits placed. However, we strongly suggest waiting to choose until puppies are temperament tested around the 7 week mark by a 3rd party, trusted trainer. We also assess them as a breeder so you get a good indicator of their temperament and which pup will be best suited for your lifestyle. Remember , matching with a pup with a temperament suited for your family and activity level will greatly help you be a good fit for puppy, and puppy for you!”

    If you’re looking for a Golden Retriever breeder, I can’t recommend SKA Golden Retrievers enough. Kylie was absolutely fantastic to work with from start to finish. She was incredibly responsive, answered every one of our “first-time puppy parent” questions with patience, and made the entire process feel easy and reassuring. Even on the morning we met our sweet girl, Kylie was organized, communicative, and genuinely excited for us. It’s clear how much she cares about her dogs and the families they go to. Our puppy, Teli, has been everything we could have hoped for—healthy, confident, incredibly smart, and has the sweetest temperament. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and are so grateful we found SKA Golden Retrievers. Thank you, Kylie, for giving us the best addition to our family!

    Kiley was absolutely wonderful and we loved working with her to find our puppy! She always responded very quickly, was very informative and answered all of our questions. She shared many pictures and videos each week which my kids and I loved and looked forward to. Im so thankful for how much work she and her family did to socialize and desensitize our puppy and his litter mates because he is doing amazing with us now. He is wonderful around kids and all of our neighborhood loves him and comments on how chill he is. We’re so thankful that we found this amazing breeder. Thank you Kiley!

    Kiley was fantastic to work with - we couldn't be more smitten with our pup Pacha! It's been evident since we brought Pacha home that Kiley & her family did an amazing job socializing the pups to set them up for success with their new families. Kiley was very responsive & helpful answering our questions including sharing information about the parent dogs & coordinating the pick-up. Pacha is a doll - sweet, healthy, social, curious & confident - all a testament to the great start she had with SK Golden Retrievers! Kiley, thank you again for everything - we continue to sing your praises to everyone who asks where we got her! :)

    Our adventure into puppy-dom is just starting after getting to know Kiley from SK Goldens! Those Goldens are the tail-wagging-est things ever. By following the process set up by Good Dog things move along until your little buddy arrives. We have a male that is very healthy, current on shots and other items on the Vet's list. Kiley sends current updates on the process made with the pups. Sometimes, on a daily basis but at least once a week. SK Goldens is a family affair, as obviously indicated by their photos. We've had our little guy for a week now, and appreciate the training provided (potty and social skills, most notably). One can tell much time was spent working with these little pups in such a short period of their lives. The pickup process was simple, we live a state away. We are very pleased, and give a good recommendation to any Golden Retriever purchaser. Our two cats even approve of Asher now! Thanks Kiley!

    Kiley was so amazing!! Any questions I had about the puppy or the mom she was very open and answered all my questions. She posted updates all the time which made the wait of picking up our Bogey better. Bogey has been the best addition to our family and we’ve loved every second with him. We couldn’t have asked for a better puppy to bring home!!
