“Cowboy has been a fantastic addition to our family! He’s healthy, well-tempered, and was clearly well cared for from the very start. Graceful Goldens made the process easy and professional, and we appreciated Kate’s clear communication throughout. We’re incredibly pleased with our experience and would confidently recommend Graceful Goldens to anyone looking for a quality Golden Retriever.” – The Lalani Family
We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Kate and Graceful Goldens. From the very beginning, Kate was incredibly thoughtful, communicative and supportive. She kept us updated every step of the way – photos, personality updates, guidance and insight into how each puppy was growing. It was clear from day one how much love, intention and genuine care she pours into her dogs and into every family she works with.
Kate truly goes above and beyond. The structure and early training she provides during those first 8 weeks makes such a difference. You can see it in the confidence, calmness and readiness of her puppies when they go home. Our golden retriever, Sully, has been remarkably well-adjusted from the moment we brought him home. He is incredibly intelligent, is already learning that outside means potty, and slept peacefully through his first night with almost no fuss.
His sweet, gentle temperament is everything we hoped for – and we know that comes from the loving and thoughtful start he had with Kate.
The care, socialization and foundation she gives her puppies is exceptional, and the love she has for each one truly shows. We are so grateful to her and feel so lucky to have Sully as part of our family.
We recommend Kate and Graceful Goldens with complete confidence to anyone looking for a golden retriever who has been raised with heart, intention and the highest level of care. It has been the best experience, and we are forever thankful.

From the very start, our experience with Kate was absolutely wonderful. She was open and honest about her pups from day one, always communicating clearly and answering every question we had along the way. Picking up our new boy went exactly as smoothly as she said it would, everything was perfectly organized and stress-free.Not only did she take the time to go through her puppy contract and explain everything in detail, but she also put together some personalized items for our new dog, which truly meant so much to us. It was such a thoughtful touch and showed how much she cares about her puppies and their new families.Our boy’s temperament is perfect! He’s funny, witty, and so curious about everything. He’s also incredibly smart, already doing great with leash walking, potty training, and crate training. On top of that, he’s such acuddler and loves to play. We honestly couldn’t be happier and have so many plans and adventures ahead with him. We’re beyond thankful for the love and care Kate puts into her dogs and her families. We absolutely plan to continue with her for future pups! Skye G.
“We have nothing but great things to say about Kate and our new pup. The process was very simple and transparent. We were able to see multiple photos of the pups before going to pick one out. Once we got there to choose, Kate gave us ample time to play with all the pups before we finally made a decision. It was clear to us that Kate really loves and cares for the puppies. She even stays in contact after the transition to offer helpful tips and information on how to care for our new family member. Kate came highly recommended from a friend and we definitely recommend her as well.” -Todd M
“We are so happy and amazed at our Golden puppy. Winston is so loving, smart, and beautiful. The training Kate does from the time of birth really makes a difference. The love and attention she pours into each of her puppies is evident in the calm and confident puppies she produces. Their demeanor is a testament of her love and dedication. We have never had a dog that is so well-behaved, smart and attentive to commands. He loves his crate and does excellent with potty training. He is an excellent learner. He loves his toys, retrieving and has a very soft mouth. His coat is beautiful. He sheds very little and his body structure is strong. He also loves his bath and grooming time. He has the absolute perfect temperament. He is agile, smart, curious, confident and chill. Kate is a fabulous communicator during the process. She sent videos, updates and advice throughout the process and was easily accessible if we had questions while acclimating our new pup to our home. I highly recommend Kate if you are interested in a quality Golden Retriever. You will be so pleased with the beautiful physique, level of intelligence and the how very loving the puppies are.” -Scott and Kristi T.
Great transition to my home with these two boys! Such lovable and smart dogs. They had great manners and a loving nature from day one. Kate has done a great job raising these pups to be healthy and loving. I just wish I had Goldens earlier. I had no idea I was missing out on all this love! -Tracy G.
I just love my boy Dave. He is SO personable. Very smart and trainable, has great health, vet always tells us what great health line he has. He loves so fiercely. He is my shadow and NEVER leaves my side. I never knew love from a dog like this. Kate is incredible with her breeding program. It was so easy talking to her and everything was very clear from the beginning. When we arrived to pick up our puppy, everything was so clean and organized, and she went over all of the things that I need to know about how to transition him to my home. She checked back several times to make sure things were going OK. if you’re looking for the most perfect golden retriever from the most professional breeder in Texas, Kate is the best, hands down!

Our experience with Kate was awesome. She was easy to communicate with and was flexible with our puppy pickup. She also was very knowledgeable so she helped educate us on some of the puppy basics in those early months.
We love our beautiful, healthy and hilarious Golden Retriever.Jon from Austin, TX
