There is a lot of time, thought and effort put into a breeding. It starts months before the breeding actually takes place.  The males are very selectively picked to match or improve upon the quality of the female for the betterment of the breed. Health and temperament are the most important factors for the puppies. I will not breed to a male who does not have all of his clearances.  You will be able to find the clearances on OFA or K9data of my female and also of the prospective male. Their final x-rays of hips and elbows must be done after they are 2 years of age and sent into OFA for grading. The heart must be cleared by a board certified Cardiologist along with a yearly eye exam by a board certified Ophthalmologist.

I want my dogs to be able to compete in any venue that is pursued, whether it is Conformation, Obedience, Agility, Tracking, Hunting or maybe a Therapy dog to visit the local hospitals and rehab facilities. The possibilities should be endless with a sound mind and body.

My goldens are part of the family and live in the house along with us. They are people dogs who love the human companionship.

A deposit of $500 will hold a puppy for you. The litter picks are made by myself with input from other breeders in order to match the puppy with the right family. All puppies will be sold on a spay/neuter contract and limited registration.
