We couldn’t be happier that we picked Sunshine’s Goldens for our puppy Murphy! We can tell that she was so loved and cared for as a pup. Abigail is so friendly and accommodating- we had to delay our pickup a couple weeks and she was more than happy to adjust. She is very timely and communicative with updates and photos and was a joy to work with, making the whole waiting process so much easier. In addition to a leash, collar, toy, and dog food- Murphy came home already somewhat potty trained and is so mild-mannered. I’m so happy I found Abigail on Good Dog and would recommend a puppy from her to anyone :) Thanks, Abigail!!

We had an amazing experience with Abigail and Sunshine Goldens! After losing our precious dog a few years ago, our family was ready to bring another furry friend into our home. We communicated with Sunshine Goldens asking questions and finding out more information… Abigail got right back to us and we had open communication throughout the whole process. We even did a virtual meeting since we lived a distance away and met the puppies via “Zoom.” We actually picked our pup because he came over and licked the phone while we were all talking! We were smitten! Abigail even offered to meet us halfway when the time came to get our sweet pup so we didn’t have to cover the entire distance—this was so thoughtful and helpful! We love our new golden, Blaze, and happy to know he came from a loving breeder who helped make this a seamless and positive experience!

+8We recently got our 8-week-old golden retriever, Cooper, from Abigail, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Abigail was super sweet and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. She is very knowledgeable about the breed and made the whole process easy and stress-free for us. She also generously provided a military discount and gave us all the goodies we needed to bring Cooper home. I am so happy I found Abigail on Good Dog! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new furry friend!

Have nothing but great things to say about Sunshine Goldens. Abigail was always very responsive to my questions and fleixible with our pickup time as we were driving across state. We have had our sweet Bertie now for 2 weeks and she has been a perfect addition to other other golden. Highly recommend.

Abigail was so great and accommodating! Her husband was also very nice and helpful when going to pick up the puppy. They gave us a sweet gift bag with food and collars/leash and all the necessary paperwork! Puppy came chipped already which was great. Amazing breeder ! I live in new york city and he's adapted so well and is loving it :)

Abigail is so easy to work with, she answers all your questions very quickly. Picking up our new puppy was easy and she went over everything that we needed to know. Our new pup ( Seamus) is so very calm and well rounded and I believe it’s the way Abigail takes care of the dogs while they are in her care.
