Golden Retrievers
Friendly, intelligent, and devoted companions with a heart of gold and a desire to please.
About the Breed
The Golden Retriever is one of the most beloved dog breeds, known for their friendly demeanor, intelligence, and beautiful golden coat. Originally bred as gundogs to retrieve shot waterfowl, they have a natural love for water and a gentle mouth.
Goldens are highly versatile and excel in various activities, from obedience and agility to therapy work and family companionship. As Karen says, our dogs "work hard, play hard, love hard, and are part of the family," making them excellent pets for active homes.
Litter Update: Spring/Summer 2026
We are currently planning our Spring and Summer litters for 2026! If you are interested in welcoming an Ocotilla Golden into your family, please visit our Contact page to start the inquiry process early.
