Risa's Golden Retrievers

It is our hope as you browse through our Risa's Goldens site that you will get a glimpse of our love for Golden Retrievers!

We started raising Goldens in 1995 when our 6 children were growing up here on our 23 wooded acres near Hillsdale Lake.  Our children are now grown but continue to love the wonderful Golden Retriever and have dogs of their own.  

Once you've had a Golden, it's hard to be without one!  At Risa's Goldens, we raise an occasional litter of full English Creme Goldens.  We also cross our American females with our English males for an English/American cross that we feel is a "best of both" combination.  Our breeding dogs have hip, elbow, cardiac, and eye health clearances as well as top quality champion show bloodlines.  Our puppies are fed Life's Abundance, a top-of-the-line holistic, veterinarian-formulated dog food. Puppies are vet checked healthy and vaccinated before going to their new homes. Our puppies are sold as family companions with limited (pet) AKC registration.

Please check with us about our up-coming litters!   

Ask to be on our waiting list or reserve your puppy with a deposit!  We have a simple "puppy questionnaire" for you to fill out when you are sending a deposit.  Our litters sell quickly, so we encourage you to reserve your puppy early!

10 Reasons I started Breeding

10. Thought the house was too orderly
  9. Never did like having a full night’s sleep
  8. Wanted my Vet to get a new BMW
  7. Thought the furniture looked too nice
  6. Love the sounds of puppies in the morning, noon, afternoon, evening, midnight, pre-dawn, etc.
  5. Garden and backyard needed renovations, and didn't want
to pay a gardener.
  4. Neighbors didn't complain enough
  3. Kids weren't enough of a challenge
  2. If you can train & show one dog, why not ten
  1. Wanted to see if spouse really meant those vows

 Real reason---"Whoever said you can't buy happiness forgot little puppies."
