Hey G&F, Thanks again for all your work putting this together, but I have 2 breeders that I can't find a website for or a FB page. Judy had a FB page, but it has very little activity. And can't find anything under Futura eigher. I'm sure she's active cuz I got a PM about her possible having pups. The other breeder I can't find is Hillside - FB or website - Search gets me Hillside in PA. Any help? If you know a URL for website or FB page, could you PM me?Hopefully this will be helpful to anyone looking for a puppy in the Midwest!

Contact the St Louis Golden Retriever Club, both are active members with the club. I saw them at the St Louis Specialty in January. There are many breeders that do not have websites.Hey G&F, Thanks again for all your work putting this together, but I have 2 breeders that I can't find a website for or a FB page.

I haven't gotten past Huntleigh in MO cuz I'm making inquiries in IL and IN also.
Thanks a lot
Try Darleen Harmon of Huntleigh Goldens in Alahambra, IL. She is planning litters for 2018 and does all health clearances. My husband and I met with her personally and we are hoping for a girl from her next litter. I also never heard back from the referral contacts with the GRCGSTL so I started my search using the list posted on the forum. Good luck with your search.Does anyone familiar with the St. Louis GRCA or with breeders in the Missouri area have comments or observations about Innisfree Kennels' golden retrievers by Sue Lister? She's a GRCGSL breeder referral contact and last someone I knew contacted her, she had field line puppies available. I was simply a bit curious why she wasn't on the 2018 Missouri breeder list on this forum when she was supposed to be a referral contact.
Also, since I've personally not heard back from any GRCGSL referral people, I'm having difficulty finding a reputable breeder that has a male pup (for companionship, service, and therapy work) from champion show lines with all their clearances-- and with the puppy's dew claws intact.
Anyone have any suggestions for show line breeders within a 400 mile radius from central Missouri? Thanks in advance.
Thank your for the recommendation. I'll certainly reach out to themTry Darleen Harmon of Huntleigh Goldens in Alahambra, IL. She is planning litters for 2018 and does all health clearances.

I made this list of breeders that I knew of or that others told me about who follow the GRCA code of ethics. It is by no means a complete list and I'm sure there are many great breeders I've missed. I'm not familiar with Sue Lister, so I can't tell you if she follows the COE or not, sorry. Hopefully there is somebody on here who knows of her and can give you better info. I went to her website and checked 2 of her dogs on OFA and they have hip, elbow, and thyroid clearances, but no heart or eyes; however, her website lists heart and eyes and I know some breeders don't send them in to OFA to be publicly recorded, so you would have to ask to see the paper copies-and make sure hearts are done by a cardiologist and not a practitioner or specialist.Does anyone familiar with the St. Louis GRCA or with breeders in the Missouri area have comments or observations about Innisfree Kennels' golden retrievers by Sue Lister?
