We aren’t only breeders.

Our golden retrievers are all raised as family members, everyone lives as part of a family and no one lives in a kennel. We are puppy imprinters and educators. We build relationships with our puppy families & service organizations and educate on puppy development and puppy raising.

We focus on early concept training which teaches puppies to think & understand, shape their temperament and helps us develop a blue print for each individual puppy, so when pups join their families we send them home with a report card which will help to train the individual puppy, not a blank slate and one-size fits all approach. In their time spent with us, we work with the the pups to create positive brain connections. We set them up optimally for beginning their lives with their new families in pet homes or service training.

The price of our pet puppies is $3500 + HST.  

This includes:

Registration with the Canadian Kennel Club, microchipping, vet check ups to ensure health and 1st vaccines including internal and external parasite control.

Parents who are health and genetic tested, including OFA hips, elbows, eyes, and heart clearance

A purchase agreement guaranteeing health of puppy (conditions apply)

On-line access to 2 courses – one to prepare your home and family for the new puppy, and the other is a 3 stage training program, which includes access to international dog trainer and IPDTA founder, Norma Jeanne Laurette CCS

Recommendations on reputable, experienced trainers and socialization groups

Referalls to trainers and therapy organizations

Puppies remain with us until they are between 7-8 weeks old.

Our puppies are born and raised in our home, and their health and development is a priority the entire time they’re with us. 

Puppies are raised with developmental strategies from the time they are newborn, receiving early stimulation and socialization to establish positive brain connections.   

By the time puppies join their new families, they will have been exposed routinely to water activities, new scents, sight and sound socialization, various types of motion, outdoor exposure and play, and a natural introduction to crate, potty and behaviour training, through our day to day interactions.  

Each of our puppies receives a temperament and learning evaluation, which guide us in working with them and serve as a blue print for families and trainers when choosing and carrying on with teaching their pups at home. The puppies are sent home with their individual report card to facilitate the transition to their new homes and training.

We coach puppy families on feeding and appropriate growth, including a take home growth chart and body composition diagram.

PICK OF THE LITTER PUPPY PRICE IS $4500 + HST : Includes all of the above, plus:

These are the pups who will go on to further their training as service dogs, in which certain character and aptitude attributes are required. The recipients of these pups receive pick of litter, which is chosen holistically with the help of our experience and interactions with the pups, knowledge of service specific character traits, the Avidog evaluation, and input from the recipient and/or their service trainer. https://www.avidog.com/courses/avidog-puppy-evaluation-test/
