Anybody know of a reputable golden retriever breader?
We are looking to purchase a puppy in about four months but starting to check out breakers now. (I know and understand the merits of buying a dog from the pound and rescue dog operations but we are looking for something very specific.) Not looking forward to the dog hair and hassle but it sure has been quiet since our lab was put to sleep a couple years ago.

Great organization
Common Sense... so rare it's like a super power
Daughter bought hers from the mall... Tried to tell her it wasn't a good idea, but she had to have it. Now $1,500 in vet bills later it's doing better... Almost died due to intestinal issues it probably got at the mall pet store. Most definitely, go see the parents and where they were living prior to purchase!
Definitely visit the parents, you will get more info by just viewing the area than any written or oral information you get from the seller.

Good advice. No intention of purchasing from a pet store or puppy mill. Would rather spend the time and money to purchase from a reputable breader.Outgunu wrote: ↑Sun Dec 16, 2018 5:41 pm Daughter bought hers from the mall...
