As with all our dogs, our English Golden Retriever females are not bred until they are cleared for breeding. All
of our English Goldens are hip certified before breeding and are also cleared for other common problems with the breed such
as eyes, elbows, and heart. All our puppies have a two-year health guarantee and are thoroughly vet-checked
before going home. We do everything possible to ensure that our puppies will live completely healthy,
normal lives. Of course, our puppies are also very well socialized and friendly when they come to you. They
are exposed to children, other dogs and puppies, water, riding in vehicles and much more before they leave here. We
spend many, many hours a day with our dogs and it shows in the quality of our dogs and in the puppies we produce.
You can be sure that when you are getting a puppy from us that you are getting the best possible puppy you could find anywhere.
ALL of our puppies are champion-sired, not just from champion bloodlines. Our male is imported from Hungary and
would love to meet you when you come visit. He is very social and friendly and loves to give hugs.
He passes on his excellent temperament to his puppies as well as his beautiful head and superb conformation. When
you meet Deus, it's obvious why he is a champion!!

English Golden Retriever vs. American Golden Retriver: What's the difference?
Having
raised both American Goldens and English Goldens, we see the differences in the two first-hand. They are very obvious
to a breeder and/or show handler, but besides the obvious color differences, other differences may not seem present to most
people. There are several big differences I will point out here that definitely make the English Golden much more desirable
than the American Golden. The first and most important thing is their health. American Goldens are much more prone
to develop cancer than English Goldens. We have known breeders who have affirmed this in their own experiences.
The second most important difference is the temperament. The English Golden puppies we have raised have been more calm
and obedient than even some of our American Adults. Obviously, not every American Golden is hyper and out of control,
but we have personally NEVER had an English Golden, or even knew of one, that was anything but submissive and calm.
Their entire demeanor is just different and it's hard to explain until you've owned both breeds. Thirdly, and most obviously,
is the coat. Not only the color, but the texture and thickness of the English Goldens is different than the American
Goldens. The English dogs generally have a thinner, more manageable coat, which means less hair for you to clean up.
The color that most people tend to think of when they are thinking of the English Golden is white, platinum, creme, etc.
However, some imported dogs are the darker golden but are still what we call "English" golden. To we Americans,
English Golden means any dog that is imported from a European country. It would be better labeled "European"
golden, but that is not the case. We have imports from Hungary with lines from many European countries on their pedigrees.
Even though color does not necessarily determine the origin of a dog, ALL of our English Goldens are cream to platinum coloring
with very little color in their coats. They ALL have the beautiful black pigmented noses and eyelids which provides
a gorgeous, stark contrast to their coat coloring. We strongly believe, as experienced breeders and dog owners of many
years, that you will have a very hard time finding a better all-around quality pet than an English Golden Retriever.
Their loyalty is outstanding. Their health and longevity is amazing. Their looks are just stunning. Join
the growing number of Americans finding joy in owning, in many peoples' opinion, the best dog in the world; Adopt an
English Golden Retriever into your home and heart.
