The cost of one of our pet puppies (AKC Limited Registration) is $4,240 ($500 total deposit + $3,500 and $240 tax due at pickup or delivery). First shots, de-worming, microchipping and lifetime enrollment in AKC Reunite, and more is included in the purchase price of your puppy. 

Yes! Your puppy also comes with a 2 year health guarantee (read here), first set of shots, vet check and health letter, will be dewormed, and AKC limited registration paperwork. You will also receive copies of both parents pedigrees and OFA and genetic clearances,

Great question! We spent our first six years in Nevada, and the majority of our puppies live on the west coast. In late 2021, we moved to Pennsylvania, and are officially relocating our business in summer 2022. Our mentors, dog co-owners - and some of our most favorite people - live in SoCal and Las Vegas, and we make frequent trips to Vegas.

We deliver puppies all over the country each year.  We may fly OR drive* him or her to you, depending on how many puppies we need to deliver. If you are located on the west coast, you can meet us in Las Vegas to pickup your puppy from us there, or, continue reading below for our additional delivery options.

*We do NOT ship puppies in cargo. If your puppy is flown, we will personally carry your pup into the cabin with us and deliver to you. If we drive your puppy to you (generally if we have a large number of pups to deliver), you can rest assured knowing we have a partnership with GUNNER kennels, and all of our dogs and puppies are transported exclusively in GUNNER kennels. Unlike most crates on the market, GUNNER kennels have a 5 Star Crash Test Certification from the Center For Pet Safety. (We are also able to work with you to provide you with GUNNER kennels at a discounted rate if you are interested in utilizing one for your personal puppy or dog transportation needs.)

Yes! However, we only allow visitors by appointment. Only those who are on our waiting list are invited to help with puppy socialization (we will contact you with times and opportunities). Anyone not on our wait list is welcome to meet us and our dogs outside of puppy visits. Please contact us to schedule a time.

Yes! If you are not able to pick up your puppy due to the distance, we can personally deliver your puppy to you anywhere that Southwest Airlines flies. This service is currently offered on a gratuitous basis, however, you would be responsible for the cost of our roundtrip plane ticket, plus the $95 Southwest pet fee. We have found Southwest to be the most accommodating to bringing puppies into the cabin, and will not ship our dogs in baggage due to the potential trauma and health risks involved. 

​

Ground transportation may also be available to other locations. Cost would be determined by distance from our location. Please contact us for additional information.

We do not offer older puppies or any of our dogs displayed on this page for sale, as they are first and foremost our pets and members of our family. If you are looking for an older or trained golden, we recommend Shadalane Golden Retrievers in Vista, California.

Also, please understand that we are not a rescue. If you are interested in rescuing a golden, please visit the Golden Retriever Rescue of Southern Nevada or, for those in PA, the Delaware Valley Golden Retriever Rescue.

Our waiting list fills very quickly! Many of our families wait 1-2 years for their furever friend, though we sometimes have earlier availability. This time frame fluctuates depending on how many litters we have each year, and how many puppies are born in those litters. If you need a puppy *now,* we are probably not a right fit for you.

While we offer full registration on a very select basis to show homes (generally only under a co-ownership agreement, requiring a separate contract with commitment to title your dog in AKC events, completion of all OFA and genetic clearances, references, and an additional fee), please note unless otherwise agreed upon in our contract, our puppies are sold as pets on a spay/neuter contract with "limited registration" from the AKC.

This means your puppy can be registered with the AKC and would be able to compete in most AKC events including Obedience, Agility, Rally, Dock Diving, Hunting trials, etc. However, your puppy is not to be used for breeding and any litters they produced in violation of our contract would not be AKC registerable.

Great question! All of our puppy parents have OFA clearances on their hips, elbows, eyes, and hearts. You can find the links to their test results on their individual pages. Our breeding dams and the sires we own also do genetic testing for Degenerative Myelopathy, Ichthyosis (Golden Retriever Type), Golden Retriever 1, Progressive Retinal Atrophy, Golden Retriever 2, Progressive Retinal Atrophy, Progressive Rod-Cone Degeneration and/or Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis 5 (Golden Retriever Type). You can view the results of our testing from Paw Print Genetics via the links in our dogs individual profile pages. 

Puppies are selected in the order in which deposits are received (which directly corresponds to your waiting list position). The exceptions to this rule are 1) if our family or our stud owner are opting to keep first puppy, and 2) if any puppies are being placed in show homes.

Leading up to puppy selection day, we will provide you with information on each of the puppy's personalities in the litter, what shade of gold we anticipate they will grow up to be, etc., and happily assist you in choosing the best puppy for you and your family based on your desired characteristics. At the end of the day however, you pick your puppy. We do not assign puppies to families. The choice is yours!

Please DO NOT send any payments until AFTER your application has been approved. If we receive a deposit without an application, it will be rejected or refused and returned to you, which will delay your addition to our waiting list.

​

We accept payments via GoodDog, Zelle, cash, and personal or cashier's check. (Personal checks require a copy of your driver's license and cash will be run through a scanner. Please don't take offense - scammers are out there!) GoodDog offers a secure, online payment portal and your payment is 100% guaranteed. They charge a minimal fee to utilize their payment service. Zelle is a free, bank-to-bank direct payment service, similar to Venmo or Paypal.

​

If you prefer to pay for your puppy via installments rather than in a lump sum, we can work with you! That said, your puppy must be completely paid off prior to being picked up at 8 weeks old.

Please contact us with any questions you may have that are not answered here! We will do our best to respond within 2 business days. Around holidays, when we have a litter of newborn pups, and when we are out showing, it sometimes takes us 5-7 days to respond. We appreciate your patience!
