Our Philosophy.

We follow a strict Ethical Code that our puppies health is our top priority. 

We start by carefully planning every liter. We consider the parentage pedigree, temperament, overall health and risks for genetic or hereditary issues through OFA and DNA testing.

Our puppies are raised in home. We ensure a clean, safe and stimulating environment. We provide socialization with children, adults, other dogs, and a cat. We provide all natural food, premium medical care, desensitization of different sounds, and basic commands training, including potty training, throughout their development. 

We provide a full 2 year health guarantee that can be extended to 5 years, to show we’re serious!

We’re also here to make the process effortless. We provide all of the information, pictures/videos, updates, tools and education you’ll need through the entire process and for all the years to come with your beloved puppy.

Why A Miniature Golden Retriever?

People are increasingly choosing Miniature Golden Retrievers over their full size cousins, due to their gentle temperament, smaller size, less probability of shedding, and generally increased life span. 

According to the AKC, Golden Retrievers are the third most popular family dog, known for loyal, gentle and intelligent. Our Mini Goldens are no different. We keep a high percentage of golden retriever and take into careful consideration the temperament, pedigree, and overall health of our parent dogs. 

We bring in smaller percentages of cocker spaniel and miniature poodle. The cocker spaniel brings in some lower shedding genes, helps retain a broader nose more true to the golden retriever, and reduces size. The miniature poodle helps with intelligence, sizes them down and can potentially bring in more low shed genes.

On average a pure bred golden retriever can weigh 55 – 85 lbs. Some families prefer a smaller dogs because of their house or yard, practical considerations like lifting them up, or simply personal preference. Due to the smaller size, and reduced genetic or hereditary issue that might arise in full size Goldens, Mini Golden Retrievers generally live 1-2 years longer on average.  

Mini Goldens tend to have a medium energy levels, love going for walks or playing fetch, then rolling over to get their bellies rubbed. With all three breeds being water dogs with webbed feet, Mini Goldens will love a good swim as well.

If you looking for a dog that’s intelligent, kind, reliable, calm and confident, then you’ve come to the right place! Mini Golden Retrievers really are the perfect dog!
