Sunnyside Meadows Golden Retriever puppies are socialized in a family setting following techniques taught by Jan Fennell, The Dog Listener. We own both of our puppies parents, and in some cases, owned their grandparents and great-grandparents as well. Each of our puppies come with a three year health guarantee and a puppy care package. They are current on their vaccinations and have been given the best of preventative veterinary care.
Raising Golden Retrievers is our family project, as well as a family passion. Our Golden Retriever puppies are socialized with our children and handled individually every day as we know how the trainability and intelligence of a puppy is directly linked to what their early exposures and imprinting have been. Our children and the puppies enjoy interacting with one another.
Here at Sunnyside Meadows, our family strives to continually improving the health, genetics, and quality of our parent lines, and is actively involved in breeder education. We are committed to responsible breeding practices, and are equally dedicated to educating our Golden Retriever puppies’ new families about responsible dog ownership. We welcome visits by appointment. Our website also has many testimonials listed from our Golden puppies owners (see link above). We are glad to answer any questions you have about our puppies, or the Golden Retriever breed, not only when you are purchasing a puppy but years afterward as well.
It has been very rewarding to now have many repeat customers as well as customer’s referrals coming to purchase their newest “Best Friend”-a Golden Retriever- from Sunnyside Meadows. While our puppies are delighted to fill this role of best friend and companion to their families, they would also be happy to fill a different role as they work in search and rescue or as service, therapy or assistance dogs.
Here at Sunnyside Meadows, we specialize in raising quality Golden Retriever puppies. We have focused on improving the health of this wonderful breed. Both of the AKC registered parents are completely tested, and are CHIC certified. Common health issues and genetic defects are less likely to occur in a puppy from certified parents.
The genetic health of our Golden puppies is one of our highest priorities. To achieve this goal, the choice of parents is of top priority. We test each of our parents for the known genetic issues of the Golden Retriever breed. We will not use a dog that does not pass these tests as one of our parents. This is the reason why we are confident enough of our puppies genetic health to offer a three year health warranty.
At Sunnyside Meadows, we are committed to providing a puppy that will have a long and healthy life. We believe that our parent health testing program is second to none, which results in a high quality gene pool, with fewer of the defects that lower the lifespan of our pets. That is why we back all of our puppies up with a three year health warranty against all congenital genetic defects.
