Hi! My boyfriend and I are based in Los Angeles and are looking for a reputable breeder that has a litter ready to go home anytime from late September to the end of the year. We are happy to travel to go pick up the pup anywhere in continental US, preference towards male, creme or yellow color...

Hi there, been on this forum for about 2 years now (lurked at first). I started out getting in contact with a breeder who agreed to have a puppy in a year (was on a waitlist). Then they went absolutely silent in the month that I was expecting. I believe the mom got an infection and the litter...

Hi all, I would love your advice on a parvovirus situation. There is a litter that I was hoping to get a puppy from (from a reputable breeder with a great reputation--I'd rather not say who) and the puppies unfortunately got exposed to parvovirus. The breeder was absolutely devastated and is...

Hi all. Quick litter size question. I understand an average litter size for a golden is around 8 ish puppies, but is dependent on many factors. If a dogs first litter was 11 puppies, can I assume her next litter will be on the larger size? Love to hear any stories.

I'm looking for feedback regarding this particular breeder I found online based in Ohio, Glory Dawn Goldens. Given your experience and expertise, does this look like a legitimate breeder? Are the parents' health clearances adequate? Thank you in advance!

I am very anxious to get my puppy! Unfortunately he/she won't be ready to come home until mid-December. At the beginning of August, I contacted a breeder (I got a puppy from her three years ago and he is the goodest boy!) inquiring about future litters. After some back and forth, I put down a...

Hi! I am hoping someone could check out the health clearances for this litter. Also, what does it mean for Molly’s offspring that they are not eligible for registration with the AKC? Thank you. This group has been great and I have appreciated your advice! Sire of litter SS09552603 Maximus...

Hello!! I have been looking for a golden retriever puppy for several months now and would like to be able to have one home by the end of the year as I suffer from anxiety and am hoping to have my new puppy be an ESA. I have contacted many reputable breeders and pretty much all of them don't have...

My mom and I go to meet Mabel for the first time in about a week. Since we are allowed to choose our puppy as opposed to the breeder picking for us, we don't yet know which puppy in the litter is Mabel. We've been getting updates in terms of photos and videos - all of the puppies are dark red...

Hello! I am new to this so I hope I am posting this in the right place. Can anyone recommend reputable golden retriever breeders in the Washington, DC area? I am willing to travel practically anywhere on the east coast (unable to fly during covid-19). Thanks!

Hi, I am looking into adopting a golden retriever puppy in the timeframe of the end of July. I am located in Northern California but am willing to drive to Oregon, Washington, Idaho etc. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for reliable breeders that won't have full wait lists yet...

We are in the beginning stage of searching for a puppy. We lost our wonderful girl, Tessa, in January after a 10 month battle with fibrosarcoma. She was 9. We are grateful for every day we shared with her and for the excellent care provided by our local vet and the NCSU Vet School Oncology...

Hello all, Hoping the group can help me with a few questions I have in the breeder-choosing process. I'm currently on the waiting list with a breeder who has an 8-year old female on her fifth litter. How old are females before they typically stop breeding? How many litters is too many for one...

I am looking to find a reputable golden retriever breeder in Florida with good health clearances of their dams/sires. Not looking for a show/competition dog, just a great family dog. Prefer American (or at least not pure English) as I prefer the classic golden color as opposed to almost white)...

Hi all! :wave: We have been using this forum from a-far for a long time--but this is our first post! We are a small family from the suburbs of Boston who lost our beloved Golden at 12yo last spring after the extremely sudden discovery of inoperable hemangiosarcoma. It is devastating that on...

Well... I say New Orleans, but I'm actually about 20 miles north in Madisonville, LA. My name is Josh and my wife and I have been looking for a dog for the family and are not having the best luck at all! Initially, we were going to get a Goldendoodle from a reputable breeder within 30 minutes...

Hi everyone, So after a lot of consideration and planning, we've decided to get a Golden. We've already found a breeder and the puppies are ready to be taken home in seven weeks. As we were the first to show an interest in the litter, we have been given first pick of the 12 puppies. Because...

Can anybody give any advice on this thread on how to pick a good personality? I want a Golden that loves me lots and is obedient (don't we all?!) I'm choosing a 6 week old pup soon. Also does gender count for anything? :p: Thanks

Hello from Jacksonville Beach, FL, everyone! :wavey: I am beyond excited to share news with everyone that after waiting somewhat patiently for 1 year, the breeder I was anticipating has just confirmed that the pups will be born in September!! I had been getting the run-around with many breeders...
