Wife's interested in a pup... golden retriever. UPDATE
« on: August 14, 2012, 09:07:40 PM »
Does anyone know of anyone with upcoming pups for sale at a reasonable price?  We don't really need the future field trial champion of the world, just good hunting and family pet roots.  Would prefer the really dark amber coloring.

Thanks.

I'll send you a pm for a friend of mine who breeds field goldens. She knows everyone in the breed. She should be able to send you in the right direction.

I would recommend trying to find a breeder that has been breeding for hunting. Too many health problems from other breeders

Try calling and asking John too:

Looks for John's dog and Brassfire in the kennel name for a really good one-

Thanks Run, just saw on FB that they are dealing with fire stuff.....  Good looking dogs, they are pretty spendy though.   :(
