We
are a small family breeder, we do not think of ourselves as a
kennel. We are entrepreneurs that specialize in quality Golden
Retrievers! We are located in beautiful New England; in
Hampden,
Maine. We like to consider ourselves collectors, if you will!
We breed both British Cream and American Standard Golden Retrievers.
Our British Cream (aka Euro Cream) retrievers are almost pure white,
with some light shades of tan. The American Standard Golden's
are shades of browns, reds, and tan colors.
We work with only Golden's of the highest quality with very high
standards. We do invite you to compare, and ask any questions you
may have as well. Our Golden Retrievers are happy, healthy, obedient
animals of only the highest quality! Our program concentrates on the
traits of the family dog first; health, trustworthiness, gentleness,
loyalty and beauty. Then we incorporate the correct and proven
genetics, imported and genetic lines that are proven through
generations, not by just a few individuals, to pass on the history
of the breed to their offspring. show champions along with champions
of the field events. These bloodlines are gathered from around the
world! We utilize Eastern and Western European lines such as,
Polish, British, English, Hungarian, Swedish, English, French and
Russian gene pools in our imported Golden Retrievers. This results
is a European bred Golden Retriever that is very beautiful, strong,
athletic and extraordinarily capable and willing to please. These
are wonderful animals with the history of the breed embedded in
their very soul. They come from genetic lines that formed the
foundation of the Golden Retriever breed! They are truly loving dogs
that live to be loved, and will be a pleasure for you to work with.
Our Golden Retrievers are bred with a goal in mind; to improve the
breed. And improve your life!
Each time a litter is born we are excited to see the unique blending
of genetics that emerge. A melding pool of the genetics gathered
from International champions from across the globe. Animals that
truly live up to the ancestry of the champions of the past, history
coming forward to the present. This is seen in our Golden Retriever
puppies. Representing their heirs in history and in nobility. The
past now becomes the present and future for the Golden Retriever
breed. We are proud to be part of this process and would like you to
visit our other pages to see more details about our people friendly
Golden Retrievers that anyone can handle with ease. We ask you to
take the time to study the pedigrees and individual qualities of our
Golden Retrievers, Judge them as individuals and then as a group.
You will see why we are proud of what we do. And we are proud of
what we offer to the quality of the breed and to our clients. I
invite you to join us in the quest.
You may just find your new best friend!

Health and well being of our Golden Retrievers
As breeders of Golden Retriever,
all of our sire and dam’s are
screened for inheritable diseases prior to breeding.
Therefore, our dogs have health
clearances such as hip x-rays, eye
examinations/CERF and
Cardiac clearances are performed on our breeding stock.
Temperament and longevity are also very important to
us. We screen our imported and domestic
breeding stock for any history in the pedigree for cancer before we
purchase our Goldens for our breeding
program. All of our puppies go to the
veterinary and are wormed before going home
with their new owners. All of our puppies are sold on a limited
AKC registration.
Buyers
who are looking to purchase a Goldenridge puppy should have enough
time, room, and a stable home for the puppy
to grow in. The puppy must live in the home
with you.
We have a testimonial page and we love hearing how the puppies are
doing and enjoy pictures, telephone calls and emails from our
buyers.
We have several veterinary references and many references from
families who have purchased a puppy from us over the
years.
When you purchase a pup from
Goldenridge Kennels we are
here for you after your purchase if there are questions you need
assistance in answering.
All pups go to veterinary at six weeks of age for a physical , shots
and worming. Our pups are raised in our home. All of our puppies come
