Welcome to Sun & Sand Goldens!
Thank you for stopping by! Your journey to finding the perfect Golden Retriever starts here, and I’m honored you’re considering one of our babies.
At Sun & Sand Goldens, we’re a small family-run program nestled in the quiet countryside of Brittons Neck, South Carolina. Our dogs aren't just part of a breeding program they’re family. They live in our home, sleep at our feet, and enjoy the simple pleasures of country life right alongside us. No kennels here just a whole lot of love, belly rubs, and muddy paws.
Every litter we raise is born right here in our home, where they’re nurtured and cared for from their very first breath. From three weeks old, our puppies start litter box training and are gently introduced to different sights, sounds, and textures to help them grow into confident, well-rounded companions. By four weeks, they begin weaning onto a high-quality, probiotic-boosted puppy mush. At six weeks, they have a full vet check-up, receive their first set of vaccinations, and get another layer of love and handling as they prepare for their forever families at eight weeks.
Raising healthy, happy Goldens isn’t just a passion for me it’s a calling. I’ve earned a Bachelor’s degree in Canine Science, along with Associate degrees in Veterinary Assisting and Pharmacy Technology. Beyond that, I’m constantly learning taking advanced courses in animal welfare, genetics, infectious disease prevention, vaccination protocols, and more from leading experts around the world.
I’m proud to be Elite Fear Free Certified, a microchipping specialist through AAHA, and a member of IAABC, which helps me make sure each puppy’s experience is as positive and stress-free as possible. My commitment to continuing education helps me give every puppy the best start and gives my families the confidence they’re bringing home a puppy raised with both heart and knowledge.
At Sun & Sand Goldens, everything we do comes from a place of deep love, respect, and devotion to this incredible breed. Every wagging tail, every puppy kiss, every joyful reunion with a forever family that’s what drives us.
We’re so glad you found us. Feel free to look around, get to know us, and when the time is right, we’ll be here, ready to welcome you into our Sun & Sand family.
