Description
Due to this being an all-male litter, a few gorgeous boys are now looking for their forever homes.
Both parents are fully health tested and possess the kind, gentle temperaments that make the Golden Retriever such a treasured breed.
Mum- Lochnabo jewelled allium of skyblaze
Dad- Gold fast fever
These puppies have been raised following the Puppy Culture programme, with no expense spared. They are being weaned onto a premium raw diet.
Raised exclusively within the home, the puppies received Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and Early Scent Introduction (ESI) between days 3 and 16.
Particular emphasis has been placed on thoughtful early socialisation, providing a wide variety of positive experiences, plenty of different surfaces and textures to walk on, enrichment activities, and confidence-building exercises to help each puppy develop into a resilient, curious and well-rounded companion.
They have been gently introduced to everyday household sights and sounds, people and dogs, and will be used to the whistle, and have had an an intro to clicker training before leaving. Pups have also been using artificial grass quite reliably for toileting since 3 weeks old, which should help with toilet training in their new homes.
Their mum, Flora, has been nothing short of remarkable with her puppies. She is utterly devoted, providing round-the-clock care and attention, and has proven herself to be a complete natural.
Flora embodies everything I value in a working Golden Retriever. She combines wonderful natural ability with an outstanding temperament and an unwavering desire to work in partnership with her handler. She is completely quiet, soft-mouthed, rock steady and endlessly biddable with a very high IQ.
Stylish in her work, with fearless water and cover entries, she is very capable while remaining an absolute pleasure to train and handle. She is the most naturally co-operative dog I have ever owned. Her greatest joy in life is simply working with me, and she is fiercly loyal down to her core.
Just as importantly, she possesses an exceptional off switch. She is environmentally stable- and is always complimented on her temperament and exceptional behaviour when out and about. She is also remarkably emotionally intelligent and intuitive, and equally content working all day or relaxing quietly at home. She settles beautifully, and can always be trusted with free roam of the house when left alone.
She is wonderful with children, kind with other dogs, and an unapologetic butter-melting cuddle bug. A joy to live with.
She is also an expert-level trick dog who approaches every challenge with enthusiasm and determination. Her eye contact, focus and desire to engage with her handler have been exceptional since puppyhood.
As a youngster she competed successfully in 6 Any Variety Retriever Puppy Working Tests, and placed in 5, despite being entirely self-trained at the time. She has since gone on to become a wonderful, and very dependable picking-up dog.

Watching my very special girl become such a devoted mother has been an absolute privilege. I've probably spent more time talking about Flora than the puppies themselves…but if they inherit even a little of what makes her so special, I'll be absolutely delighted, and I hope their new families will feel just as lucky as I do.
The sire, Gus, is a much-loved family dog from proven working lines. Gus himself is sired by the exceptionally talented OFTW Kaliture Red Pepper, while his dam line also contains many established working dogs.
Gus is intelligent, kind and athletic, while also possessing that invaluable off switch. He lives as a family dog within the home, and is equally content spending his evenings relaxing peacefully on the sofa alongside other entire males.
Each puppy has been carefully observed throughout their early weeks of life and will continue to be assessed as they develop. Formal temperament assessments will take place at 7 weeks of age, after which each puppy can then be thoughtfully matched to the home best suited to their individual character.
My hope is that these boys will have the opportunity to fulfil their working potential through meaningful activities, such as; picking up, gundog working tests, field trials, scent work, agility, competitive obedience, search and rescue, assistance, therapy work, or similar pursuits. I anticipate these puppies will possess the intelligence, trainability and enthusiasm to excel in these avenues, while forming deep partnerships with their handlers through kind, thoughtful training. Equally, they could be suited to active homes where the importance of training, boundary setting, and mental stimulation is understood.
Previous experience is preferred, but not essential. Enthusiasm, commitment and the right home matter more. Ongoing lifetime breeder support will always be available.
When enquiring, please tell me a little about yourself, your lifestyle, experience, and the sort of life and activities you hope to share with your puppy.
The puppies are fully hereditary DNA clear of ICT, PRA 1 & PRA 2. They will leave with breeding and export endorsements in place. I am more than happy to lift these in the future after satisfactory health testing and demonstration of appropriate temperament traits.
Each puppy will leave with:
• Kennel Club registration
• Five weeks' free Kennel Club insurance
• Wormed and fecal samples sent off for testing
• Microchip and vet check
• Scent blanket
• Sales contract, including a lifelong commitment to take your puppy back at any stage for any reason.
Please feel free to get in touch with any questions/to register your interest.
