"About" Miniature Goldens

ABOUT Miniature and Toy Golden retriever puppies: #1) I Typically DO NOT LIST PERCENTAGES ANYMORE! There is no point to keep doing it. We are many generations down the road. If you like the parent dogs, go with that. If we breed back to a purebred, golden retriever, those will be higher percentage puppies. If we breed back to one of our larger, almost pure bred female miniature golden retrievers....those will be higher percentage puppies.

Please keep in mind that achieving a miniature golden retriever with all of its golden retriever traits is a tough chore. A Toy golden retriever is even more difficult and there will be less actual golden retriever in many toy matings. That being said, our golden retriever percentage is constantly "on the rise" with even our toy matings. We do not sacrifice the golden retriever look, disposition or personality with our toys so we are very selective in choosing our toy lines. Sooooo.....be prepared for a sweet baby that is at least 50% (typically 63-82%) golden retriever in gene, but ALL BUBBLY, HAPPY, WIGGLY, golden retriever in personality! Just miniature golden retriever in that "fun size" or apartment size package
