Hello. Our prospective dam only had 3 puppies in her litter. We were five on the list. So we won't be getting our puppy from her.
Can someone share with me a breeder they like, w/clearances of course, in Indiana and Illinois, or Louisville, Chicago, Cincinnati, Dayton areas. [we are in central Indiana]
thank you for you time.:wavey:
p.s. i did a search here for IN or IL people, I must not be using it right.
Hi, not good at this, but if you go to the breeders thread, look up breeders in indaiana, there is a thread my Ljilly, that has some breeders posted,in in.,ill., oh.
I'm very sorry, you must be so disappointed. I think you are in a great area for wonderful dogs. Someone will see this and have good ideas for you. Here's one to check out..... This is going to be a very cool litter. (I have a puppy coming home next month that I've been waiting on for two years, or I would definitely be on the list for this litter ) They will be in Madison, WI. Here's the link:

can i ask you another question?
..at golden clover retrievers thelady has asked for a deposit and the dam is not preg yet..
...at four seasons, that is where jane only had 3 puppies and we were 5th on her list
...at four lakes, i am on her list.
would you give me your comment, or from anyone..
about giving a deposit before the dam is pregnant?
thank you
I was 100% serious that if the litter I've waited and waited on (Two years!) hadn't come through for me that one of these puppies would have been coming to my house. I have chatted with both Jane and Wendy Biewer quite a bit (They were both so very kind and informative and wow, that Wendy is a character - love her ) and feel good about Abby being a great girl I absolutely love her look too - and given the fact that their sire is SuperDog, there's just no way you could miss with these puppies. They're going to be very special
What are you looking for in a dog? Are you looking for a nice well bred family pet, or a high drive dog to compete in things like hunt tests, agility, obedience?
I have met both Jane and Abby.. In fact we have discussed different sire's quite a bit.. I did tell her what a slug Tito is...(totally just kidding. Barb!)...
I told her I knew who she was talking about and he is an awesome dog and it would be a wonderful breeding and just what she is looking for. Jane is a very nice lady!
Titan scared her..... She wanted a breed dog...had to steer her gently away from some that were all talk and information that maybe the stud dog owner had not quite been forthcoming.. Tito was the perfect match:.
A little bird told me that people were saying nice things about me here. So I had to check it out. I am completely new to this forum but not at all new to goldens. Thank you Nolfan, Hotel4dogs & Titan1 for your comments. I am very excited about the Abby x Titan litter expected this spring!
Welcome to the forum FourLakes :wavey: I hope you will keep us posted on how Abby is doing this spring and hopefully you might have some fun photos to post! I think those puppies will be very special and would love for some forum members to get their hands on them Then I would get to see all kinds of photos....
I do hope you will stick around, this forum needs people like you who can share your Golden experience with those of us who are new and trying to learn more. I've learned so much here and it really is a terrific resource.
We just got our puppy in Indianapolis last week from Hynds' Goldens. It was a large litter and there is a light golden female and a medium golden male left. They are 8 weeks old today. We loved the fact that the puppies were raised in the family's home and our puppy was nearly housebroken when she came home at 7 weeks. Let me know if you have any questions. We are really happy with the puppy and really like the family who bred her.
per their site, "There is also no history or current problem with hips", I would steer clear from this breeder, just based on no mention of having done clearances. Hips are not the only clearances that need to be done.
Actually I'm not sure what paperwork we received, I haven't gone through it yet. My husband handled the paperwork when we were there (we had the first pick of all of the puppies and I was a little overwhelmed!). We haven't done the AKC paperwork either, I probably need to get on that, but with four kids and two dogs, plus working from home, it just hasn't been a priority. I remember talking to the breeder about it on one of our visits and she said they had clearances.
did the dam and sire have clearances?
i can't take a puppy until after april 13th
we have a vacation planned and it wouldn't be good to put a puppy with g'ma
thank you thou for responding... !
Their phone number is listed on the breeders page or you can send an email from there. Honestly, I don't really know much about clearances, we have a 10 y.o. Golden we adopted a few years ago and didn't have much info. So it wasn't something that I was all that concerned about with the puppy, I remember the breeder talking about it, but it wasn't a huge priority for us and I didn't pay close attention. We focused more on the overall health and temperament of the parents and their previous litters. We also didn't want puppies raised in a kennel or barn, so that was another reason we chose this breeder. We aren't planning on breeding, we just wanted to add a family pet. I would contact the breeder directly, I'm sure she will be able to tell you whatever you want to know. Good luck with your search, it's so exciting! We are completely in love with our new addition and it's only been a week
did she give you the ''official names" of the mom and dad dog?
i'm not familiar w/terminology.. like their long AKC names?
we can look them up on OFFA.org
i know your busy... not trying to rush you.
