About Us Rooted in Faith & Family. Driven by Passion. Committed to Goldens. Our Breeding Values Health First We thoughtfully plan each litter with a focus on long-term health and well-being.

Every step is designed to set them up for a successful and joyful transition.

Ruby Autumn Puppy Thought you might enjoy seeing a couple updated photos of second pick girl golden, or as we call her, Ruby. We are enjoying her so much! She loved to play ball and has learned how to fetch and return. She loves tennis balls and recently got her first bird toy. She has learned to sit and stay. Ruby will get to participate in a puppy school in July to learn some more basic commands. She is crate trained and we are proud to be accident free! We are so thankful that we have Ruby in our lives and cannot wait for summer fun! - Michelle Furever Home Photos

Puppies leave us and enter a new chapter, bringing joy, companionship, and unconditional love to their new home. Mack Shasta Puppy When I first got him, he was 12 lbs and now weighed in at his last shots at 24! He is pretty much potty trained, has slept through the night since night one, and knows how to sit, stay, lay down, and shake. Mack truly is my best friend. We now know lay down, roll over, high five, give hugs, and say your prayers for tricks! He’s a great listener and loves playing in the snow. 2020 UPDATE: I cannot believe I already have a two year old! My favorite boy is doing great as always. He loves being at the farm every day finding sticks, chasing the kitties or birds, managing to cover himself in cockleburs and being my right hand man for any task. He loves going for rides in the truck, but his most favorite day of the year is when I carry that 73 lb frame up the ladder for a day in the combine. I’m so lucky to have found you both to give me such an amazing dog and I am forever grateful for my best friend. - Kari Furever Home Photos

She is a beautiful, sweet, smart, and sassy little girl. We love watching her grow and her personality develop. Ellie loves belly rubs, learning new tricks, short walks, playing fetch, and ALL people and animals. She has been a joy and bright light in our lives after losing our first dog last October. I'm so thankful for Ellie every day. (November Update): Ellie is growing like a weed. She's 55 lbs of playful, and goofy. She loves to play fetch, eat ice cubes, cuddle in bed, sleep on her back, explore the backyard, and greet everyone who walks by. She's the most popular dog in our neighborhood; everyone knows her by name. - Kaitlyn & Dwight Furever Home Photos

Misha Bear Savannah Puppy She is the most laid back, loving, smart, beautiful and just plain amazing puppy/dog I have ever had. Our 12 year old lab is adapting well too. Misha thinks she is a toy and Millie just puts up with her… I think she likes having another friend around. I have to mention again how gorgeous she is… the vet spent about 20 minutes telling us how perfect she is in every way and cars slow down when they drive by to look at her. She is getting used to being brushed and puffs up just like a cotton ball. Our boys are quite smitten and I think that’s why they are so helpful. She pees a lot during the day, not going to lie about that, but she can make it through the night - go figure. Luke and I can’t thank you enough for Misha Bear and our correspondence along the way. - Laura & Luke Furever Home Photos

He has grown SO much since we picked him up in July. We can’t even really remember what it was like without him in our family. He’s healthy, in “kindergarten”, loves to play, be outside, take walks and snuggle. He thinks that socks, mittens, kitchen towels, toilet paper and undies are a real treat so we are always on his case about what is food or toys and what isn’t! He definitely tries to play us. He is very good at “sit,” “come,” and is learning how to “wait” and “leave it” (see the list of unavailable items above…we are getting a LOT of practice with “leave it”). He lets us know when it’s time for a bathroom break, and has figured out his crate is a safe and comfy place. - Alison Furever Home Photos

Puppies leave us and enter a new chapter, bringing joy, companionship, and unconditional love to their new home. Doc Autumn Puppy We have a great dog training club not too far from us where we train. All of the instructors love him, and he enjoys engaging in class. At the age of two he still has times when he acts like a giant puppy and can be a bit wild, but he is always fun and incredibly sweet. We are also preparing to get his AKC Certified Farm Dog title. There is a club in the Iron Range that is planning to host a test day next spring. At that time we’ll also take the test for the Novice Trick Dog title, and maybe the Intermediate Trick Dog title as well. In the spring we should also be ready for competition rally. He is technically ready for novice rally now; it’s me who needs to work on learning the signs and courses. AUGUST 2023 UPDATE: You may also like to know that the temperament testing you and your grandson did with him as a puppy was spot-on. And the noise desensitizing you did with the litter was also incredibly helpful. He is what I call “bomb-proof;” he isn’t bothered in the least by fireworks, gunshots, thunder, sirens, or alarms. If something does happen to startle him, he completely recovers even before I can tell him it’s okay. He is also very treat motivated, which means he is a dream to train. Of course it helps that he is also quite smart. This year has been extra exciting for him since he decided water and swimming can actually be enjoyable. Perhaps he finally realized he was the only golden retriever who disliked water and should re-evaluate his position on the matter...I told you he’s a smart one. His retrieving instinct is also wonderfully strong; he “retrieves” laundry tirelessly from the hamper. Nothing makes one smile like being greeted by a Golden with a gift (even if it’s dirty socks). - Bonnie & Nicholas Furever Home Photos
