AKC GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPIES

Our puppies are raised in our family home and are socialized with both people and our other household dogs from an early age. They spend most of their first 8 weeks living in our family room, where they receive constant interaction and care. From birth, the puppies are handled multiple times each day to ensure they are feeding properly and receiving individual attention. As they become more active and begin walking, we provide plenty of stimulation to encourage healthy development and build confidence as they grow. We also implement noise desensitization training by exposing them to a variety of everyday sounds through speakers, including lawn mowers, vacuums, blow dryers, showers, and more. In addition, we regularly change the locations where they eat to help them become comfortable in different environments around the home. For ex., we occasionally feed them in the bathtub area so they can become familiar with the space and have a more positive association with future bath times. We own the dam (mother) of the puppies and are not commercial breeders. We allow her to have only one litter per year until she reaches 6 years of age. She is currently 5 years old, and this is only her third litter. Once she reaches retirement age, she will not be rehomed. She will continue to live with our family and enjoy the rest of her life as a in our household. Our dogs are treated like family, and their health and well-being are our top priorities. We prepare homemade dog food consisting of turkey, beef, brown rice, quinoa, carrots, squash, etc. They also enjoy walks and often travel with us. This litter consists of 5 females and 3 males. Both parents are AKC registered, and the puppies are eligible for AKC registration as well. We encourage all prospective owners to research the breed and consider whether it is a good fit for their lifestyle before purchasing a puppy from any breeder.
