About Us
Love Is A Four Legged Word
At Golden Valley Kennels, we believe that dogs are part of our family. That's why our dogs live and play in our home with us. They are more than just pets, and are essential parts of our lives.
Our dogs get to run on our 2.5-acre property, along with taking long walks and swim in the Kootenay River. You won't have to worry about early socialization as our puppies get to play with children, other dogs, our cats Gigi and Renfrey, and explore their new world through many wonderful attributes of early neurological stimulation.
When you are looking for a Golden Retriever puppy, we can help. Join our waitlist to be notified when our next litter is due. Read more about our future litters and our application and waitlist process here.

Commonly Asked Questions
What dogs do you breed?
We breed Golden Retrievers.

When the puppies are living with us, we lay the foundation for potty training to make the transition into their new families a positive one.

We feed and highly recommend Acana Puppy food, and all of our puppies get sent home with one bag.

OUR philosophy
Our Kennel Philosophy
We believe in raising well-rounded, well-adjusted and friendly companions. Our dogs' health and happiness is always at the forefront. At Golden Valley Kennels we feel that quality over quantity holds true when it comes to ethically breeding and raising dogs. We are not just breeding dogs as a hobby, it is our utmost passion and it shows in every way. Our exceptional client care goes well beyond your puppy coming home.
At Golden Valley Kennels we genuinely believe that dogs are part of our family, here to be with us through both good times and bad. That's why our dogs are our family companions first and are able to enjoy their lives thoroughly out here in the mountains.
Our female dogs are given at least one full year between litters and examined by our town veterinarian before each breeding. At the first sign of weakness, we will neuter/spay our dogs to maintain their health and let them live out their lives on the acreage. From time to time, we will have an adult dog available to an approved home.
