“We adopted Bandit on April 22 and he has been an absolute dream come true! We love everything about him and he’s just the sweetest and most adorable dog. We couldn’t have been happier with the whole process and our breeder Aden was wonderful. We are forever grateful for this experience and to be able to bring our newest family member home!”
“I spent 25.00 at golden chick the service was bad ,wasn’t friendly ,rude get home and my dirty rice looked like BS look like someone ate out of it .This is not the first time this done happened.25.00 is a lot of money to be getting old food.”
“We got Hugo (now named Bowie) he is the sweetest little boy and so smart. However we noticed the next day he had some diarrhea. We thought ok. Maybe it’s the treats/new food. Nope, 3 days after his arrival he was tested positive for Giardia. Which we are still doing our best to help him. Luckily we got pet Insurance before he came. Right now we have paid 1400 in vet bills because Bowie wouldn’t have an appetite to eat or drink. To this he still has soft stools. From our vet they said it’s gonna be a never ending battle for a few months. Pretty sure Bowie got it at there and not in our home since we have another dog that does NOT have it”
We’re sorry to hear Bowie has had a rough start and hope he’s feeling better soon. Intestinal parasites are unfortunately very common in puppies, especially during periods of stress and transition, and digestive issues can sometimes linger for a bit even after treatment begins. Thankfully, most puppies do improve with time, supportive care, and consistency as they settle into their new homes. Please continue working closely with your veterinarian, and feel free to reach out to us or your breeder if you have any further concerns along the way.
“I love my Earl. He is everything I wanted. I adopted him April 12th. He get along with my other dog sparrow who is a rescue dog. The breeder Aden was very nice. It was a very smooth process to be able to get him.”
“I waited two years before writing this review to ensure we got a healthy, happy dog as advertised! We definitely couldn’t be happier with how our golden form this website turned out! J.J. (formerly “Izzy”) is a beautiful, happy, and healthy golden girl! She was transported from Ohio to Texas without us meeting her in-person, and we had absolutely no difficulties. We were sent lots of pictures throughout her travel journey! We firmly believe that the breeder crate-trained her before we received her, because we did not have any trouble with her the first few nights! She has the best temperament and loves to “smile!” I could not recommend this site enough! We got everything we were promised and more!”
“I had been looking for a new golden puppy and had interacted with Galen who represents the breeders in advance with what I was looking for and timing. Galen let me know when he felt a great match was coming up and he was spot on. Rocky is our new little fellow and he’s healthy and wonderful! We look forward to many years of walks, swims, snuggles and companionship. Thank you!”
“We were able to welcome Isabella to our lives
What an amazing gal she is
Working with Aaron Miller was great
They delivered her to us in Falmouth, MA
I’ve reached out several times with questions and always had great responses to my concerns
We adore Isabella, she is beautiful, relatively calm as apposed to most
Highly recommended!!”
“Thank you Ruth for the excellent care and compassion as we adopted a puppy from you. We picked up our puppy a month ago and Ruth answered all of our questions with professionalism.
Thank you
Jackie Calka”
“We couldn't have possibly had a better experience in finding our forever boy!! We drove up to meet the litter and pick him out then drove back two weeks later to take him home!! Mary was kind and so attentive to the pups as well as her three kiddos! The puppies were happy and healthy and thriving!! We brought Walt (was Ricky!) home and he is doing amazing!! He is growing and sleeping and playful and fantastic with our grandchildren!! We are in love and can never thank you enough!!!”
“We recently adopted our golden retriever and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The service was outstanding from start to finish—everyone was kind, patient, and clearly cared about the dogs. The price was fair, and the entire process felt honest and smooth. You can tell they truly want these animals going to loving homes. Highly recommend to anyone looking to add a furry family member!”
“We had such an amazing experience adopting Duncan through mygoldenretrievers.com. From start to finish, everything was smooth, organized, and stress-free—which is exactly what you hope for when bringing a new puppy into your life.
The communication was excellent, and every question we had was answered quickly and thoroughly. You can truly tell they care about their dogs and the families they’re going to. The entire process felt professional, but also very personal and reassuring at the same time.
When we finally brought Duncan home, he was healthy, happy, and clearly well cared for. That meant everything to us. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he came from such a great place.
We couldn’t be more grateful for such a seamless and positive experience. If you’re looking to add a golden retriever to your family, we highly recommend mygoldenretrievers.com. They made this special moment even more perfect for us 💚”
“We recently adopted the most adorable puppy, and we couldn’t be happier! He is healthy, and has an amazing temperament, which was very important to us. Communication with the breeders was excellent . Marlene answered all the questions that we had and responded back really quickly. She was so kind to send videos and more pictures of the puppy. — professional, caring, and always clear. They even helped with meeting half way to get the puppy. You can truly tell they love what they do and care deeply about their dogs. Highly recommend! Thank you for such a great experience .”
“Absolutly wonderful experience!!! We love our golden to pieces! She’s a great little girl 🩷🩷🩷. Our delivery experience was great. Cody was wonderful!!!”
“I previously wrote a good review for our puppy Iris (formerly Oakley). She seemed like a happy puppy in the first month or so but things went bad yesterday. When we first got her we took her to our vet 5 days after her arrival as that was the first available date. They did a stool sample and it came back positive for Giardia DNA. We treated her with Panacur and didn’t see any symptoms. Well unfortunately it was either dormant or the bacteria from her poops prior to treatment stayed in our yard because yesterday she became suddenly and seriously ill. It started with wet runny stools every hour and by 5 pm she was going outside every 15 minutes. We went to medvet and it continued to worsen. She started to throw up and shake uncontrollably for hours. After extensive testing and supportive care (and a $1,700 bill) she tested positive for Giardia. This disease is notoriously common to reinfect your puppy over and over again. It was wrong to send puppies home without warning. I contacted the owners of the other females from her litter today and was told another had Giardia as well. To see a puppy in that kind of distress is something I hope no one reading this ever has to experience. I will never purchase another puppy from this website or breeder, and I recommend you don’t either.”
We’re very sorry to hear that Iris became ill and that you had such a stressful experience. Seeing a young puppy sick is upsetting, and we’re glad she received prompt veterinary care.
Breeders in our network maintain routine sanitation and parasite prevention for their litters and observe puppies daily for appetite, stool quality, and overall health. If a puppy shows symptoms of illness, it is treated promptly and does not go home until it is well.
In your review you mentioned that Iris was seen by your veterinarian five days after arriving home, was treated at that time, and appeared to be doing well for about a month before becoming ill. Situations like this can certainly be frustrating for families, but the timeline you described is consistent with how this parasite can behave.
If you have not already done so, we would encourage you to reach out directly to the breeder so they can be aware of Iris’s diagnosis and discuss the situation with you.
We truly hope Iris is feeling much better and wish her a full recovery!

The breeder was informed when Iris was first seen by the veterinarian shortly after going home, and communication during the first few weeks after pickup indicated that she was doing well.

“I would give more than 5 starts if I could. Axl is a beautiful, healthy and happy puppy. My experience working with Julia from Cozy Cabin Goldens was perfect. She was kind, responsive and most importantly honest. We lost our Golden Retriever/German Shepard Zevon in November at only 7 years old and his brother, Jagger at 3 years old missed him so much, as did we. Axl has brought life back into our house and he and Jagger play like they been together forever.”
“Maverick (previously Hank) has been such a blessing in our lives! He is full of energy and love, and we truly couldn’t imagine our home without him. We had an amazing experience adopting from Ruth Mast at Hearts of Gold. We received weekly pup-dates with photos and videos, which made the wait so special. We were able to visit their home, meet Maverick before take-home day, and even meet both mom and dad in person. They were also very flexible with scheduling when it was time to bring him home.
Maverick is already learning to sit, lay down, come, and stay! We are so grateful for such a smooth, positive adoption experience and would highly recommend.”
