Hello! I grew up on Long Island, New York and moved to Colorado in 2011. I am a therapy dog handler and have over 11 years of experience working as a nurse.
Ever since my early childhood, I have had Golden Retrievers as pets. When I worked in the hospital, I observed my patients in session with a Golden Retriever therapy dog. That is where I saw first hand how many other lives they touched during very vulnerable, difficult times. Golden Retrievers are heart healing angels without wings!
It has always been a personal goal of this breeding program to get our dogs involved as therapy dogs in healthcare facilities while achieving AKC therapy dog titles. I strongly feel that this is my calling in life (to combine my strong desire to help others in need through my career as a nurse and as a Therapy Dog Handler with my passion for raising/providing heart healing pets to clients).
Mango, Olive, and Aspen were evaluated by Pet Partners (with myself being their handler) at different times and they all became Registered Therapy dogs! Mango and Olive volunteered in a hospital with me and I will begin volunteering with Aspen soon (location TBD). They really enjoy providing comfort to others in need and I enjoy getting to spend more time with them!
Another goal of this breeding program is to provide more clients in need of a heart healing pet and help them with puppy placement in a way that allows the puppies to thrive in their new home. This is one of many reasons why we place a strong emphasis on the daily handing/curriculum we provide to our puppies and perform evaluations when they are between 7-8 weeks of age. It is important to take into account their individual temperament when it comes time to assist our clients with placement of these puppies when they have specific needs.

Hello! I am a Colorado native who grew up in the small town of Elizabeth, Colorado. I grew up on a 20 acre ranch where we had horses, cows, and of course dogs. Raising animals and breeding animals has been a part of me for my entire life.
As a child I remember getting my first dog at the beginning of summer break right after school ended. I was so excited that I started building an agility course on the ranch to help train my dog. I found an old metal barrel with a scrap piece of wood to make a teeter totter. I used a horse jump for the obstacle course and then transformed an old hot water heater box into a tunnel for my dog to run through. I trained with my dog everyday during that summer break. This inspired me to continue owning dogs as pets and eventually want to breed them.
Whether you are looking for a dog to train in agility or as a companion, a Golden Retriever will make a great choice. Remember, they will make your life golden!
