Hello and thank you for visiting! Please note that I'm not super tech savvy, so this is a basic web site.  My priority is taking care of the precious alpacas and amazing Goldens on the farm. They love visitors, so please come see them and immerse yourself in the rewarding lifestyle of raising animals.  Educational farm tours are $20 per person.

​

Puppies available now: Male puppies from Biscuit and Finn!  These puppies have been vet checked, dewormed, vaccinated, and loved on daily. Leash and manners training started too!

​

We endeavor to breed the best puppies possible and look forward to providing you with wonderful English style Golden Retrievers from the best imported European lineages that will bring years of joy to your life.

​

Our parent dogs must meet our high standards for overall correct conformation / proportions, bone size / angulation, phenotype, disposition / temperament, breeding efficiency and the details of the Golden Retriever Breed Standard.  Then they need to pass all of their health and genetic testing adequately.  Then...they need to actually produce healthy, sound offspring...free from serious anomalies...the final test!  Those are the puppies that we are very proud to provide to you as a wonderful long-lived, four-legged addition to your family. 

​

That said, for your additional peace of mind and that remote chance that you need it...we offer a generous three-year health guarantee for hearts, hips and eyes in the sales contract.

​

In my years of breeding, I have retired early several dogs that failed to meet all of the requirements...this comes at a considerable emotional and financial loss.  However, it's the only way to truly improve the breed for the future and that is my highest goal.  Ambition, dedication and a deep love for the breed help overcome the challenges of dog breeding.  We appreciate and are grateful for the people who have supported our program by purchasing puppies. Several families have purchased two!

​

To date, after almost 12 years of breeding over 300 English style Golden Retriever puppies we can report that none have had debilitating problems with hips and no cancer has been reported back to us thus far.  Eyes, hearts and elbows have also been good with no reports of issues from our breeding dogs.  Allergies have also not been an issue or reported to us.  

​

All Tradition dogs have had genetic diagnostic tests done or are clear by parentage for multiple generations.  Thus, our puppies will not have the inherited PRA eye diseases, or the heritable skin condition, Icthyosis.

 

 

TO RESERVE YOUR PUPPY:

Reservations can be made any time.  A $500 deposit is required to hold your puppy reservation and your position in the pick order. You can visit the litter any time by appointment. Puppies are examined by a veterinarian at seven to eight weeks of age and we do picks on the day you take your puppy home. This way you know the vet report before you choose!
