Longleaf Golden Retrievers

Our breeding program was born out of both love and experience. I got my first Golden Retriever in 2007—a wonderful companion with natural talent and the friendliest demeanor. Sadly, she passed away prematurely due to a variety of genetic issues. That loss shaped my commitment to do better for the breed.

As a lifelong waterfowler, I knew that when it came time to bring another Golden into my life, I wanted more than just a family dog—I wanted to preserve the athleticism, natural talent, and genetic health that this breed was originally known for. From there, our program grew with one clear purpose: the betterment of the Golden Retriever.

Our focus is on honoring the origins of the breed as a capable water dog—athletic, biddable, and eager to work—while maintaining the hallmark temperament that makes Goldens beloved family companions. We take pride in showcasing our dogs, especially to those who believe the breed has been watered down over time. Nothing brings us more joy than demonstrating just how versatile, talented, and resilient a well-bred Golden Retriever can be.
