Meet the breeder

I'm Samantha T., the breeder behind Top Gun Golden Retrievers located in San Tan Valley, AZ. We spend 14 weeks training all of our puppies and have them fully vaccinated, including rabies before they go to their new homes. We do 6 weeks of therapy work at a local memory care facility. We do 6 week of advanced obedience training, and a lot of socializing trips.

Q. & A. with Samantha

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have become a professional dog trainer and have worked with thousands of dogs. I absolutely love training and breeding. It is truly my passion in life.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our program is very unique. We provide trained golden retriever puppies that are fully vaccinated and delivered to your door. We spend 10 to 15 hours a day with the puppies training them, socializing, and working on enrichment. We also do crate training, potty training, obedience training, and therapy hours.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Golden Retriever puppies include dark golden, golden, and light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Samantha

Samantha has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

After buyers complete the application and screening process, Samantha partners with them to find the best puppy match.

“We match our puppies based on temperament, energy level, and lifestyle compatibility, not just color or appearance. Each family is carefully screened and approved, and we take the time to understand your home, experience, activity level, and what you’re looking for in a dog. As the puppies grow, we evaluate their personalities, confidence, energy, and overall disposition through daily handling and structured observation. Around 7–8 weeks, once their temperaments are clearly developing, we begin the matching process. We provide guidance on which puppies are the best fit for each family to ensure long-term success. Our goal is to place each puppy in a home where they will thrive, whether that’s a calm companion, an active family dog, or a candidate for therapy or service work. While we absolutely take preferences into account, the right fit will always come first. This approach creates happier homes, more successful training outcomes, and better lifelong matches. ”
