Our story

We purchased our first Golden Retriever, Kona, over ten years ago, and our love for these dogs began with her.

Our oldest daughter, Gracelin, eventually saved her money and brought home Hazel as a middle schooler. We were so impressed by Hazel's temperament, trainability, and devotion that we found an English Cream male, Rio, and added him to our family intending to start a breeding program. He became Lillian’s very best friend. Since then, we have continued developing and improving our lines.

We love our puppies, and this is a family effort! Our kids have active roles in caring for the puppies and the adult dogs. These dogs live on our couches and beds, wait under the table while we eat, and run around our farm. They continue to enrich our lives with their love and devotion. Our dogs have always been and always will be family companions first and foremost. 

We are grateful to have this opportunity to raise dogs and provide your family with a loving puppy. Please feel free to contact us with any questions. We love to discuss dogs!
