Our dogs are first and for most our family pets, we strive to better and enhance the breed to be workable, happy, healthy and knowledgeable pets that like to learn. Golden Retrievers excel in obedience, hunt, agility, service, therapy, rally and dock diving. All enjoy having a purpose but one of their true loves are being part of a family. If you're looking to add a loyal and loving companion to your family, look no further than a muddy golden!. These intelligent and friendly dogs are known for their gentle demeanor and are great with children and other pets. With their beautiful golden coats and expressive eyes, golden retrievers make for a stunning addition to any household. Whether you're an active individual looking for a jogging partner or a family seeking a playful pet for the kids, golden retrievers are versatile and adaptable to various lifestyles. You will have to keep their minds busy, or you will have mischievous golden looking for fun or troubles with toilette paper shredded everywhere. They can learn flash cards for tricks too! Our family loves to compete against each other as to WHO has the smartest dog. Training is fun and enjoyable for our dogs. They are amazing friends that just want to make you happy.

Our Mission is always to provide the best homes for our puppies. Without knowledgeable willing owners, our puppies won’t do well. It is our mission to help our puppies find the right homes and provide the right information to our families so they can train their new puppy to be an outstanding companion. Our main goal in breeding Golden Retrievers is to create low COI within the breed, and to always breed level headed goldens that want please, that are kind and compassionate. Our experiences throughout the years have seen many great outcomes with our processes in raising golden retrievers and it just seems to get better and better.

We, like all golden retriever breeders, have had some learning experiences or challenges to overcome but it made us better with the choices in our breeding program and the way our puppies are raised. If you find a breeder that say they haven’t had any issues with breeding golden retrievers, they havent bred enough goldens to have the history that we do. Fact, plain and simple because the hard true is goldens have health issues and we are breeding out of as many health issues as testing parent goldens can provide. We have been breeding goldens for 36 years. There are problems within the breed that we minimize through DNA testing, COI test mating, along with OFA hip, elbow, eye and heart examinations, and without these tests its truly a crap shoot, you can end up with bad issues that cost a new owner a fortune in vet costs. Nobody wants that to happen, some breeders breed just for the puppy experience, or the neighbor had a male, so they let them breed, and don't know what they are creating. That’s a crap shoot you will never know what you are getting if all the testing isn’t completed on parent dogs. We use the tools available to help bred better goldens.

We provide a ton of information about golden retrievers on our web site to help all owners discover safer and healthier care for their new family member. Golden Retrievers are our life, we believe in healthy diets promote healthier dogs, we are up to date with the current Golden Retriever studies that definitely help the longevity of our favorite breed. Golden Retrievers are man’s best friend, and we can keep them safer by following recommended guidelines of those studies that help the individual dog live a longer happier life. We breed to provide families with a new family member that you will have for years of enjoyment. Our health clearances, along with our 8-week puppy process make smarter puppies that are ready for your home, willing to learn and healthy because of diet, exercise, love and care. Puppy growth, mind and body is critical to how your puppy will grow into adulthood. It makes a huge difference how they are raised. Our litters are born and handled from day one. Neurological stimulation is a must, its proven effectiveness shows stresses help stimulate the neurological system which improves the growth and development of the pup's immune system, cardiovascular system, and stress tolerance.

We make it a point to place puppies in homes that enhance the puppy life, meaning that if a pup is wanting to be a hunting dog and has an overwhelming drive for birds. That puppy will live in a hunting home so his or her life is what they are striving to do. That being said other puppies in the litter may be showing signs of being agility dogs, therapy dogs, companion dogs, service dogs, search and rescue dogs, kid dogs, dock jumping dogs, see the overall golden retriever has many loves. They are not just formed for one duty they are passionate about people and their willingness to do what your daily life consist of. The dogs just love you and have a mutual understanding through training and the communication that they live for you, and you live for them. We would be honored to raise you a once in a lifetime Golden Retriever puppy. All we ask is that you love them like you never loved before!
