These photos show the Riley x Shooter puppies at four weeks old. It is just so incredible to see how much they have already grown! These little bundles of love and joy are already starting to show hints of their unique, golden personalities. They just love to run around, play, and explore the grass! Each puppy’s adorable, shimmering face cannot help but make you smile. It is wild to think that we are at the halfway point between the puppies being born and them going to their loving, forever homes. The camo blanket shows the boys, and the pink blanket shows the girls.

These photos show the Bettee x Maverick puppies just a few days away from being a week old. They are making sure to get plenty of milk and sleep, all while staying super cozy with their mama! Bettee has been doing such a tremendous job taking care of her precious babies. Each one is just so adorable! They have already begun their early development programs and are doing great with their early neurological stimulation and scent introduction. As you can see from the second-to-last photo, the darkest-furred girl has a really amazing and unique birthmark! It is really cool to see such a rare and special blessing on her left side. It will be awesome to see how her fur looks as she continues to grow!

2027 Litters
Below are my 2027 plans (so far), with my best guess as to the timing of when they might happen.
Please note that it could vary from this time frame, as Mother Nature does what she does. Dogs’ cycles are not exactly every six months. We reserve the right to change the sires on the litters.

Everyone is really looking forward to another pairing of these two irreplacably precious dogs! The beauty, softness and care that embody these incredible animals make the lives of everyone who meets them so much brighter! If those two happy faces do not vouch for how loving they are, then I do not know what does! Ladybug and Maverick’s last litter produced some of the cutest little puppers, with the great red coloring of the parents. We definitely expect to see more marvelous pups this time around, too. Ladybug is an excitable, fun-loving, friendly gal who is always up for some snuggles. We have kept two Ladybug pups, our Shooter and our Jagger, who are just the most amazing boys we could ever ask for! As for Maverick, he has been hard at work earning many marvelous titles, showing off his impressive skills and behavior! We are really excited for these puppies to come! Be sure to check out the parents’ pages at the underlined names above, or at the ‘Our Dogs’ page!
We truly expect bright things and endless love from these future pups, especially with the impressive backgrounds of the parents!

We are really starting off 2027 strong with this stunning pairing of Olive and Shooter! The combination of these lineages is really something special! In the past, this pairing has produced some wonderfully trainable, cuddly, and hunting-ready little cuties! With the combination of these two, we see our Striker, Amos, and Stetson lines all coming together, so some very impressive awards reside in the background of these dogs. Olive couldn’t be sweeter, and is the best belly-rub enjoyer around! She also just loves her fellow dogs, playing with them. Shooter is always down for some training, playing, and especially swimming! When he isn’t out living the playtime dream, you can find him relaxing next to you on the couch or sleeping right next to you on the floor. Be sure to check out the parents’ pages at the underlined names above, or at the ‘Our Dogs’ page!
Looking at the parents' temperaments, we expect some wonderful companions, great hunters, and training-loving pups with this pairing.

It is with great joy that we are planning to do another litter with this marvelous pairing! We cannot get over the incredible temperaments, lineages, and good looks these two possess! We have seen just how well their cuteness and soft-as-silk fur show up in their offspring. If there is one thing we can say for sure, it is that previous Dumplin x Maverick puppies have looked fantastic in sunglasses, which you can see on our testimonials page! We truly expect to see more greatness from this pairing. Dumplin is an absolute cuddlebug who loves to be close to you and get all the pets she can. She is a playtime superstar and thoroughly enjoys bumper throwing time! When Maverick isn’t out earning more impressive titles or passes toward said titles, you can find him being the best couch companion and friend you could ever ask for! Be sure to check out the parents’ pages at the underlined names above, or at the ‘Our Dogs’ page!
With the previous pairing experience and the temperaments of both pairings, we are very much expecting great things from this litter and know these pups will make so many amazing families happy!

There aren’t enough words to say just how excited we are for the pairing of Butterscotch and Stetson! We just adore everything about these two! We have seen so much greatness from each dog, so we are really hopeful for this first time pairing. With the combination of these two, we see some beautiful coloring, smaller size, great hunting drive, and phenomenal companion temperaments coming together. Butterscotch is always a bunch of fun, with her loving to soak up as many cuddles as she can. She has some really sweet eyes and gives the best kisses, too. Stetson is always the most excited to go train and earn his impressive titles and accomplishments! Then, like a great off switch, he is ready to be the best couch lap dog you could ever ask for. Be sure to check out the parents’ pages at the underlined names above, or at the ‘Our Dogs’ page!
Looking at the temperaments Butterscotch and Stetson possess, we really think immense greatness will come from the future puppies they will bring!

We simply cannot wait for Honey’s first-ever litter of puppies! There are not enough words to describe how much we love these two doggies! We highly expect to see some wonderful darker coloring, fun-loving hunting drive, and a smaller size in the puppies from this pairing. Honey is a little lovebug with all the cuddles to share! She is our beautiful up-and-coming female out of our Maverick and our now-retired Bubbles. Stetson is eager to be the best couch lap dog a person could ever need, while still following David’s instructions phenomenally like the smart and talented dog he is. Both dogs possess some stunning builds and pedigrees that combined should produce great pups! Be sure to check out the parents’ pages at the underlined names above, or at the ‘Our Dogs’ page!
Taking a look at Honey and Stetson together as parents, we highly expect to see great things and lots of love from the future puppies they will bring!

We are really looking forward to Ivee’s last litter of puppies as we are so thankful for all the love she has brought! With this pairing, we are expecting to see some darker coloring, incredible companion puppies with a good drive for hunting or playing. Ivee is a phenomenally loving sweetheart who is always there to give some good company. She really loves a good Y-bone chew toy and is a blood-donation hero! Stetson does a great job of combining his incredible intelligence, hunting and training abilities, good looks, and snuggly, loving side to be an amazing one-of-a-kind best friend. We have seen such great things from both dogs in the past, so we are really excited for these pups! Be sure to check out the parents’ pages at the underlined names above, or at the ‘Our Dogs’ page!
With Ivee and Stetson in mind, we are truly expecting some wonderful future best friends with all the incredible golden retriever love and happiness along with them!
Later 2027 Puppies
Looking for a later 2027 litter? We have plans scheduled that are not yet listed on the website, and we can work with you to put a deposit on if you are interested. Please specify this on your Puppy Application, and we can find the best fit litter for you! Unless told otherwise, please assume the regular price of $3500 per puppy, limited registration, on those litters not yet listed. We reserve the right to change the sires from what we plan on those litters as well, to ensure the best possible breeding practices, as sometimes we have to change the sire for different reasons. The timing may differ from our plans we share here as well, as Mother Nature may cause things to change from our best possible estimates.
To hold your spot on a litter, please fill out our Puppy Application form and follow the necessary steps. For more information, read about the Puppy Purchase Process below. Make sure to check back on the available puppies around the time they are born, as deposit spots may open up!
The Puppy Adoption Process
What we need from you
By submitting your Puppy Application, you take your first steps toward the puppy adoption process! You will then receive an email from us within the next few days, and we can determine the best litter choice for you and your future puppy with the information provided.
***Please check your junk mail! Sometimes, the email gets sent there first.
Important: We require a $500 deposit to hold your spot on a litter. This deposit will go towards the final price of the puppy and is non-refundable. We take three male deposits and three female deposits on each litter. If a litter does not have three of each sex, then we can move you to a future litter, move you to the other sex, or refund your deposit (refunds for deposits are only offered when we cannot produce a puppy).
- For more details about the process, please visit our FAQs page or see the information below.
We ask that you please remain patient with us, as nature and each puppy litter can be quite unpredictable. Additionally, every dog and puppy requires a great deal of love, care, and time, which keeps us busy! We will always try our best to get back to you as soon as possible. Trust me, the wait for a puppy is well worth it! :) If you do not hear back from us quickly, please email us directly at huntersgoldstrike@gmail.com so we can make sure we received the application.
What you will receive
-
You will receive a handy booklet containing all your puppy’s important documents like the litter registration, vet check, and vaccination certificate. The booklet includes information regarding your dog’s health, when to spay and neuter, rabies and other vaccinations, and health tips/information regarding your puppy’s safety. This booklet also shows off the pedigrees and accomplishments of your puppy’s parents!
-
Your new best friend will go home with a few puppy necessities! This includes a small bag of puppy food (which contains about five to six days’ worth of food), a colorful collar, and a seasoned toy that smells like your puppy’s brothers and sisters!
-
Puppies will have their first round of shots, a vet check, and a microchip. After your puppy goes to his or her new forever home, we register the puppy’s microchip in your name for you. To do this, we use the information you provide in our microchip form, which is a part of our buying process. There is a 24-month guarantee on OFA eyes, hips, heart, and elbows, spelled out in the puppy contract. We send out these contracts filled in with your information when the puppies are around 6 weeks of age.
Information regarding the puppy purchase
You can check the section above for expected litters, future planned litters, and what is available. I try to keep it updated often. I will take three deposits on each sex per litter, for a total of six deposits per litter.
We operate on a first-come, first-served basis. If you are the first to put down a deposit on a male/female in a litter, you will be the first to pick your male/female puppy for that litter (this may rarely be altered, such as us keeping one from the litter).
If we don't have three of each sex per litter, you will have a few options. You can take a pup of the other sex if it's available, or you can switch to another litter if something is available in that litter. (I do not bump someone so that you will get the same pick as you had, or better, however.) If these options are not possible and we are unable to produce a puppy, you can receive a refund for your deposit. Otherwise, deposits are non-refundable.
See Pricing per litter in the list above, as they differ from litter to litter! If you are putting a deposit on a litter that is farther out and not yet displayed on the website, pricing will be at the standard $3500 per puppy. In the case that pricing were to be different, we will specifically specify it. The puppies no longer have their dewclaws removed due to new, updated research and recommendations.
You may purchase full registration for an additional $1000. We highly recommend that you do the clearances before breeding. Each puppy has a purchase contract that is sent out once the puppy is about 6 weeks of age, so you have roughly 2 weeks to read over it all.
What is full registration? Find out here!
You can contact me if you have any questions about these litters at: Huntersgoldstrike@gmail.com

We love to see updates on puppies and would love for you to tag us on Instagram and Facebook!

First, you will need to fill out an application. We will email you within the next few days after we receive your application. Once we talk about the right litter for you, we will require a $500 deposit to hold your spot on that litter. After you put a deposit, you can check the website for updates on the litter. Once the puppies are born, we will send you a birth announcement with the pickup day and the number of puppies in the litter! We will then start updating the website weekly with new pictures of the puppies. At 6 weeks, you will get your contract and appointment time. We will also put individual photos of the puppies out at this time. (Warning: they are super cute! -This is also the last time we update the pictures.) The puppies get their shots around 7 weeks of age, and they will go home at 8 weeks old. (If the puppies are born on a weekday, it will be the following weekend.)
If you are out of the area, you will need to either drive to get your pup or fly in and fly it home with you under your seat. This is the best and safest way to ensure you get your puppy home safe and sound. We are able to hold the puppy for longer at $15 per day, but it is best for the puppy if they can go home on/around their pickup date.
*Puppies can no longer be shipped by United Pet Cargo.
All pups will have a Colorado Sales Tax of 2.9 % added to your invoice!
We reserve the right to change the sire on the litters above if we need to do that for whatever reason!
Notes About Our Professional Breeding Program
Our professional breeding program consists of thirty-five years of intensive work to provide top-quality puppies to our clients. Every dog in our breeding program is a dog that doesn’t have hip dysplasia, heart defects, skin problems, or serious behavioral problems. We put our dogs through clearances for heart, hips, and eyes, and we are adding elbows, thyroid, and other tests to provide even better quality pups. All our Dogs are cleared for eyes (OFA), heart (OFA), and hips (OFA or Penn Hip) before breeding them, and this is what we base our guarantee on. These puppies are beautiful, healthy, and mellow-tempered (not to be confused with a new puppy behavior).
They are all registered with the American Kennel Club, and in most cases, they are registered with the United Kennel Club. Paperwork is always provided on all the dogs with their breeding background. Pheasant or quail wings are introduced at an early age. We have them vet-checked at three days of age and now do not have their dew claws removed. They are vaccinated at 6 to 7 weeks of age and again at 9 or 10 weeks of age if needed before placing them. We are extremely proud of the puppies that we produce.
They are whelped and kept in special areas to provide them with the best start in life. Puppies are socialized and given individual attention to ensure that they will make a wonderful new family member. We do not allow individuals to come in and handle the puppies until they are several weeks old. This is for disease control purposes. Our careful protection of the puppies guarantees that you will have an incredibly healthy puppy when you take them home.
We provide support and recommend training to all individuals and families purchasing a puppy to help them in the transition as they bring the new puppy into the home. Obedience training is very important! You will like your puppy better if it is obedient! In addition, we offer ongoing support for the lifetime of the puppy/dog with regard to behavioral problems and general consultation. We encourage you to contact us with any health issues, as this will help us make future decisions in our breeding program.
Puppies are available on a regular basis and are sold on deposit unless they are old enough to take home. We encourage our clients to visit our kennels to see their condition and meet our dogs! (Please schedule an appointment with us via email before you come to visit.)
*If you are going to schedule a visit…
Please see our Kennel Rules and Regulations!We cannot stress enough how important our beloved dogs and puppies are to us. For their safety, please follow our rules.
We highly recommend a basic obedience class for your new puppy. You will like the behavior better if you have an obedient dog. We find that goldens are easy to train, and in addition, you get a fun way to spend time with your dog. Good Luck with your new family member!
