I'm Kim K., the breeder behind Sunbolyn Golden Retrievers located in Pennsylvania. We breed for health, temperament, and structure with an emphases on a loving family member. We only breed dogs that are healthy have all health clearances and genetic testing required for this breed. My dogs have wonderful temperaments, and are outstanding examples of their breed. Holding myself to high standards is paramount to the well-being of our dogs and to the integrity of our program. Puppies are placed in the best homes possible. I ask that all puppies go to basic obedience training and all owners are willing to learn things that will keep their dog healthy for life.
I am a GRCA CCA Evaluator and pride myself in understanding the golden retriever standard.
