We got our beautiful ECGR girl on Labor Day weekend and haven't looked back. She is FULL of personality, intelligence, character and voice. Sooner wasn't here one month and learned at least 5 buttons to tell us what she wanted: 1. Outside potty. 2. Give me a treat, 3. Hungry. 4. May I have some ice? 5. May I have a banana please? She "tells" us all the time what she wants by bringing us a baby as a gift. She is so vocal with the booty shake her love growl as we call it. She is so vry gentle with my elderly father in law and all the way down to our great nephew who is 9 months old. When she first met our ittle nephew she would go to her bed and get a toy and tade her waging and vocal booty to him like ..... ohhhhhh do you like this one? And then repeat 10 more times.... What about this one?...She took him baby after baby and would try to hold his hand with her mouth lik.... ohhhhh come here.. Just lay in my bed... She has now mastered 13 "talking buttons" and uses them daily. So much so we have to put them up because she knows how to speak lol. Kate IS absolutely the best thing we stumbled across. Sooner is happy. Healthy. fUnny. Incrdibly SMART. Was so EASY TO TRAIN. BEST purchase we have every made! - Amye

Testimonials

Jax is our dream come true family dog. Raised by Kate for 18 months when he became ours, Jax has been a dog with the sweetest demeanor with our young children. He came to us knowing sit, lay, shake, and he goes potty on command in the backyard. He also routinely chooses the same spot to go, he is so polite! He knew to stay off furniture (at least until we spoiled him) and is the most polite young dog we could ever hope for. He absolutely loves car rides and grew accustomed to all kinds of situations very quickly and is a highly adaptable dog. I can tell that Kate knows exactly what she is doing raising her puppies because they are the sweetest, well-mannered dogs who have clearly been loved and raised right. If we ever add a second golden to our family, Kate is who we’re going to reach out to. Thank you Kate for the perfect dog we could ever hope for.

We adopted our Penny from Kate in 2022 just in time for Christmas. She made the whole process of adopting easy and has been very helpful in sharing tips and has even checked in several times to make sure everything is going well. Penny is the most beautiful and wonderful family dog with the sweetest temperament. She’s become another member of our family and we can’t help but spoil her all the time. We highly recommend working with Kate, she has a wealth of knowledge and experience with Golden Retrievers and cares deeply about finding each of them the right home.

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 Buster!

I love my Lady! She is an intelligent, sensitive, and has great impulse control.. athletic but quite calm and focused. Kate answered all of our questions and kept in touch after we took her home. She works so hard to teach and care for these pups!

Great transition to my home with the two boys. Such lovable and smart dogs. They had great manners and 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!

“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 and offers helpful tips and ino for caring for our new family member. Kate came highly recommended from a friend and we definitely recommend her as well.”
