Meet the siblings making me proud 🐾
Buddy from Bristol x Moonshine and Honey from Bristol x Whiskey are something else. Both confident, sweet, and so gorgeous already. Buddy’s got that goofy boy charm and Honey is all soft eyes and tail wags. Watching them grow up in their home makes every late night of breeding so worth it. Bristol pups really do turn into the best family dogs.

🐾 Hank Update from Colorado x Whiskey’s New Year’s Eve 2024 Litter! 🐾
Hank’s family just sent over some oh so handsome new pictures of their boy, and my heart melted all over again! Look at that gorgeous color and those golden eyes—he’s absolutely stunning! 😍📸
One of the absolute best parts of being a breeder is getting updates like this from the families who’ve taken my “babies” home. Seeing how they grow, thrive, and bring joy to their families means the world to me. Every photo, every story, every little update reminds me why I love what I do. 💛
Being a Golden Retriever breeder is so much more than a job—it’s a calling. I pour my heart into every litter: from the all nighters to the early socialization, crate training, and lots of love I give each puppy before they go home. Watching them grow into confident, happy, well-adjusted golden retrievers is what the magic is about. 🌟
To all my puppy families: Thank you for keeping me in the loop. I truly cherish hearing about and seeing all my babies, no matter how far they’ve gone or how big they’ve gotten. They’ll always be my babies, too! 🐕❤️
I’m so grateful to do what I love every single day, surrounded by beautiful Goldens and the wonderful families who welcome them. This life with Golden Retrievers is a gift, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. 💕

Happy 4th Birthday to our sweet Colorado Ava. Today we celebrate not only her beautiful life, but also the joy, love, and legacy she has given us through her precious babies. Colorado is so deeply loved, and she has a very special place in our hearts and in our family.
To all of Colorado Ava’s babies and their families from her litters, we would love for you to share an updated picture today in honor of your mama’s birthday. It would mean so much to see how her little ones have grown. Happy birthday, sweet Ava — you are loved beyond measure by your family and all who have been blessed by you. Please help me celebrate her special day!
