Frequently Asked Questions


Question

Are your sires and dams OFA ceritfied for hips and hearts?

    Answer

Yes, and we will provide documentation from OFA.

Question

How long have you been breeding the golden retrievers?

    Answer

14 Years.

Question

Do you have a health guarantee?

     Answer

Yes.  The guarantee is limited as follows.  Our puppy contract requires that you take the puppy to your Vet within 3 business days after receiveing the puppy.  Your Vet must give the puppy a complete wellness check.  If your Vet discovers any problems with the puppy you would be entitled to an entire refund.  If our Vet disagrees with your Vet we will not refund the purchase price until the puppy is sold to a new owner.  No guarantee exists beyond these dates.  You should know that we have sold 90 puppies over the past 13 years and have had zero reports of any serious health problems.

Question

Do you line breed or in breed?

    Answer

We do line breed, but absolutely no inbreeding.  Our line of dams under our control goes back 15 years.  These dams have produced nothing but healthy, loveing, robust puppies.  It is our goal to continue this line of dams as long as possible.  To this point in time we have used different sires from different breeders.  Always insisting on champion dogs with all certifications and documentation.  We are striving to create a whole seperate line on the male side. 

Question

How do I get on the waiting list?

     Answer

Just send an email giving your name, phone number or any other important contact information.  Advise if you have a preference for a female or male.  There is no charge for being on the waiting list.  Those on the waiting list receive regular news as to the breeding & whelping dates as well as all important news.

     Question

Question

What is the deposit procedure?

    Answer

We ask that no one pay a deposit until the puppies are two weeks old and we are comfortable that the puppy is healthy.  However, some insist on paying the deposit to guarantee a puppy in their name.  Naturally we must move those people to the top of the waiting list.  Should for any reason we could not provide the puppy, the deposit is refunded in full.  You may request a deposit form at any time.

Question

Are both parents on premises?

    Answer

The dams live here, the sires do not.  Our long range plan is to keep the dams and sires.  All customers are given all information about the sire - name, owner, website, address, and contact information.  We use only champion sires for breeding.


Question

Do you show your goldens?

    Answer

No.  We just do not have the time that is required to show our dogs.  We are considering obtaining a handler, but it is not a high priority at this time.

Question

Will you ship your puppies?

    Answer

We choose not to ship our puppies.  We feel it is more than enough trauma for the puppy to leave here, travel and adjust to a new home.

Still have questions? Please contact us anytime! We look forward to hearing from you.
