Golden Retrievers & Training

We are a professional dog trainer and breeder, specializing in therapy dogs who are capable of working with neurodiverse children. This can be a big job for a dog! And that's why we fell in love with the Golden Retriever.

We love the Golden Retriever for therapy and service work because of their sound temperament and eager to please nature. In addition, we love to see a Golden Retriever who does what the breed was intended to do! Some of the best assistance dogs are those who have the natural drive and intelligence of a golden retriever, which enables them to stay focused on their task, even with distractions around them!

You will see our dogs with AKC titles in other events and sports besides therapy work. This enables us to train for and see their temperament, drive and breed qualities to prove them before we breed them. We are proud to be ethical breeders and raise health tested, titled, therapy certified Golden Retrievers who benefit our family and the community!
