Meet the breeder

I'm Tammy D., the breeder behind Superior Gold Golden Retrievers located in Rock, MI. Quality, health-tested, and socialized dogs are the principal components of our success as reputable breeders. We’re proud of the seamless transition our puppies are able to make as fun, lovable family members.

Q. & A. with Tammy

Why did you start breeding?
I have been passionate about animals since I could walk. Dogs, especially Goldens, have stolen my heart. Producing puppies that I can be proud of is always my bottom line. We don't just "place" puppies, we develop trusted, lifelong relationships.
What makes your program special?
Me! I am not just a breeder. I purchase my dogs from responsible, caring breeders as well. I treat people as I would want to be treated. Empathy and respect go a long way.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
