Classic Heritage Golden Retrievers
Trained Golden Retriever Puppies for Sale

Puppy Training Foundation 
Changing the futures of our dogs and their families one puppy at a time.
 
  We certainly have learned quite a bit in the last several years as we have been raising puppies.  Most importantly we have learned how much puppies need and what it takes to produce a healthy, well-balanced, and sound puppy for each and every family who entrusts us to help them in this endeavor.  What the puppies can learn between the eighth and tenth week of life is so important as they transition into their forever homes.  Therefore, to help our new families, most of our puppies go into their new homes at ten weeks of age with our foundational training and learning program in place.(some exceptions apply)  The foundations our puppies gain from our program mean that everything is easier right from the beginning for both our puppies and the families that love them.  
 
Our continued learning/training program beyond ten weeks of age (as shown below) is available for those who want their puppy to be further along before going to their new homes, more adjusted to being away from their mother, and able to do more individualized training and learning.

  We are very happy to offer one of our special puppies to you and your family.
