We are excited to offer something a little different than mini aussies- Miniature Golden Retrievers!!

Golden Retrievers have long been one of Americas favorite dog breeds.  And for great reasons!  I have always loved the breed, but their size just never fit my lifestyle.  When I stumbled across a miniature golden retriever, I just had to learn more!!  The smaller size is perfect!!

Miniature golden retrievers are mixed to bring the size down.  Some of our mixes include poodle, cavalier, and cocker spaniel.  Our goal is to keep the golden retriever attributes while sizing down and adding in some hybrid vigor!

Size ranges for a golden retriever are 60-100lb.  Our mini golden retriever size ranges will be 15-40 lb on most pups.  We cannot gaurantee size.  This is a relatively new breed, still in creation stages, with larger dogs being close up in pedigrees.  This means, there will be some pups that do get bigger, that’s just the way mother nature works.  We will try our best to predict accurate mature sizes.

Miniature Golden Retrievers are excellent candidates for sport, guide dogs, therapy dogs, as well as simply amazing family companions.  They have an endearing love of life.  Miniature Golden Retrievers are outgoing, trustworthy, eager to please, easy to train and very affectionate.  They have a very joyous and playful approach to life, often affectionately referred to as “goofy” with their big smile and happy wagging tails!

Miniature Golden Retrievers need plenty of exercise.  They make great hiking/jogging partners, and many enjoy dog sports such as agility, obedience, tracking, or hunting.  They love love to fetch and retrieve!!  They love to please and are very bidabble, making training vert pleasant and fun.

Miniature Golden Retrievers are natural companion dogs: gentle and responsive. They become very attached to their human families and are excellent with children. Very affectionate and playful with a high degree of intelligence. These cheerful dogs are very sociable and will get along with everyone including people, dogs, cats and other pets (cats and other pets need to be exposed at a young age)

Miniature Golden Retrievers will need grooming.  Some may shed less than a standard golden retriever if they have poodle in their lineage.  Coat types will vary some.  Some may need trims at a groomer, while others will shed more and not need to go to a groomer.  Miniature golden retrievers are NOT hypoallergenic.  They will shed (although typically less).

We have 2 gals that are “english cream” miniature golden retrievers.  We specifically looked for these for a couple reasons.  English cream golden retrievers are healthier than the american golden.  They typically are less prone to hip problems and less prone to cancer.  They are also well known for their calmer, lower energy.  The english creams are a white to ivory color, although some even have a golden “classic” color coat.  We are very much looking forward to seeing these miniature english cream golden retrievers in the future!!!
