Q. & A. with Sharon
Why did you start breeding?
I have been showing dogs in one venue or another since 8th grade. My grandmother's best friend introduced me to the show world in the 70's. I showed standard poodle in the beginning with her after married, and having a family we settled on Goldens, as they are a great family dog.What makes your program special?
We bred only parents that have cleared all tests available to golden retrievers and then we spend many hours decided the pairings to make our future generations.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
