Welcome to the World of Sun & Sand Puppies

There’s nothing sweeter than the soft patter of tiny paws. It means a new litter of Golden Retriever puppies has arrived, and with them, a fresh wave of joy and excitement. From the moment they’re born, our puppies are surrounded by warmth, comfort, and gentle care.

Their first few weeks are spent in our cozy, climate-controlled nursery. This space gives them a peaceful start, with everything they need to grow strong and healthy. Around four weeks old, they move into what we lovingly call Puppy Pre-School, where the real adventure begins.

Puppy Pre-School: Confidence Starts Here

This stage is where each puppy starts to explore the world around them. In a safe and playful environment, they’re introduced to all kinds of sights, sounds, textures, and activities. From vacuum noises and different flooring to toys and gentle handling, every experience is designed to help them feel confident and curious, not fearful.

By the time they’re ready to go home, our puppies are well-socialized, adaptable, and eager to be part of a family.

Raised with Heart, Every Step of the Way

Raising Golden Retrievers isn’t just something we do. It’s our everyday life and something we pour our whole hearts into. Because we’re able to focus fully on our dogs, we spend our days cuddling, playing, training, and creating real connections with each puppy.

They’re raised right alongside us, in our home, as part of our family. That closeness helps shape the gentle, loving nature Golden Retrievers are so well known for.

Step 1: The Application

The first step is to fill out our puppy application, which you can find on our website. This helps us get to know you, your family, and what you’re looking for in a new companion. The application includes a non-refundable fee that is applied to the final price of the puppy. Once we've reviewed your application, we'll let you know if you've been approved to join our waitlist.

Step 2: Securing Your Spot

We can't predict exactly how many puppies will be in a litter, so we don't take a deposit until a litter is born. Once a litter arrives, we will contact people on our waitlist in the order they were approved. At this point, we will ask for a deposit to reserve your puppy. This deposit is non-refundable and will go toward the final purchase price.

Step 3: Puppy Selection

At six weeks of age, after the puppies have had their vet checkups and first round of vaccinations, it's time for you to pick your puppy! Picks are made in the order that deposits were received. We'll send you photos and videos to help you make your decision, and we're always available to answer any questions you have.

Your puppy's health is our top priority. We use Embark DNA testing on our breeding dogs to screen for genetic diseases and ensure we are producing healthy litters. While we do not do OFA testing, we are confident in the health of our dogs and stand behind the puppies we breed. Our breeder's contract is always available for you to review on our website, and a signed copy will be included in your puppy folder when you take your new puppy home.
