Q. & A. with Tyler
Why did you start breeding?
We love Golden Retrievers. We have bred, trained, and hunted with other breeds over the years (Brittanys, Labs) but found the Golden Retriever to be the best all-around working dog + family companion. We want to contribute to this incredible breed by producing exceptional dogs that WE want to have as our companions - the good news for you is that we can't keep them all!What makes your program special?
We produce excellent Golden Retriever puppies by breeding the best to the best. Our females are accomplished hunt test dogs that descend from the renowned Mioak and Topbrass lineage. Our criteria for stud dogs are males from an exceptional line that have distinguished themselves in hunt tests or field trials.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.
