AKC English Cream / American Golden Retriever Puppies ready 3/27/15 in Patmos, Ohio For Sale

I have a beautiful litter of nine AKC (7 male and 2 female) very light cream puppies that are half English Cream and half American Golden Retriever (which means their coloring will be a much lighter cream color than the normal golden color.) Their parents, Ace (age 3) & Misty (age 3) are also both half English Cream & half American Golden Retrievers. The parents are both on site for you to see as well as there are photos posted of both of them on this ad.
*** UPDATE: I CURRENTLY HAVE 2 FAMILIES COMING TO SEE MY 2 FEMALES ON SATURDAY THE 14TH AND THEN TWO FAMILIES ON A WAITING LIST FOR A FEMALE SHOULD THEY BECOME AVAILABLE. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE PLACED ON THE WAITING LIST PLEASE CONTACT ME. I ALSO HAVE ONE MALE ALREADY SOLD. THEREFORE, WHAT I CURRENTLY HAVE AVAILABLE IS 6 MALES. ***
Many people ask me this question so I will answer in advance... I personally have found there to be no differences in the personality or temperaments of the English and American Goldens, only their country of origin and their coloring are different. As far as build, the English tend to have a blockier head than the American Goldens but as a small puppy you won't really be able to tell which trait your puppy will carry.
The puppies will be ready to go home with you when they are 8 weeks old on or after March 27th! My puppies are sold with limited breeding rights, meaning you can register your puppy with AKC if you should choose, but you can not register any of their future litters with AKC, unless breeding rights are purchased from me for an additional $450 at the time you purchase your puppy or at a later date for $550. (This information does not pertain to anyone not intending to breed your puppy in the future.)
A little about myself... I have been raising and breeding Goldens since xxxx and I currently have 1 male and 2 female AKC registered Goldens in my breeding program. I normally raise 1 - 2 litters per year. I live on 10 acres in the country where my dogs get the chance to run and play freely! I consider myself to be a Hobby Breeder because while I don't have a big business with continuous puppies, I absolutely love what I do and placing my puppies in wonderful homes with new families for many happy years of enjoyment is what I strive for. My puppies are raised indoors and are very well taken care of and are given lots of love and playtime daily (by my 6 children!!) in order to ensure a happy content puppy for you. I named my business "Golden Pride Retrievers" because that is exactly what I have... pride in raising the very best Golden puppy for you!!
The puppies are raised in my home where I am working on crate training and potty training beginning at 4 weeks of age so that hopefully the crate and house training idea will already be somewhat understood before they transition to their new home. My puppies from previous litters did very well with both issues, aside from normal puppy accidents of course!
Ace and Misty's previous 2 litters together have all found wonderful new homes and their new families are very happy with them! There have been no health issues with the parents or any of their puppies thus far. References are available upon request.
The puppies will be wormed & will receive their 1st set of vaccinations at 6 weeks of age. They will come with a puppy starter packet full of very helpful information, a small starter sized bag of Purina puppy chow for the first 2 days, their AKC papers & also a one year health guarantee stating that if something should happen to your puppy & it is confirmed by a vet that it was due to a congenital or genetic defect, then your money will be refunded on a pro-rated basis based on their age at that time. This health guarantee does not cover any health issues that began or were caused by any outside factors after your puppy leaves my premises. You will, however, be refunded your purchase price, minus a $100 re-homing fee, if within 4 days of purchase you decide for any reason that you can not keep your puppy. Also, if for any reason, you find in the future that you can no longer keep your dog, I will take it back and find a wonderful new home for it pending it has a clean bill of health from your veterinarian and is current on all vaccinations. (only because I can not risk someone bringing an un-vaccinated or sick dog into my home and putting my Golden's health at risk.) I offer this option because I never want one of my puppies to be sent to the pound because someone is no longer able to care for it.
There are several options available to you for choosing your puppy and placing your deposit. I will be having a PUPPY OPEN HOUSE on the weekend of March 14th and 15th so that you can set up an appointment, choose your puppy and place your deposit. You can also mail a deposit or pay through Paypal and once I receive it, I can send you photos or videos of any remaining puppies so that you could choose your puppy that way without making 2 trips. No visitation will be available prior to March 14th because I do not allow outside visitors until they are at least 6 weeks old in order to protect them from illness and over stimulation.
The weekend of March 27, 28 and 29th will be when you need to make plans to pick up your new puppy so please try to make time available that weekend. If you can not, I will hold it for you until you can. If you are interested in a puppy for Easter, although they will be ready to go the weekend before Easter, I will hold them the extra week until the day before Easter at no additional charge. You could either come choose your puppy in person the weekend they are 1st available to visit or you could choose via photos/videos once I receive your deposit.
For your $300 deposit, I will accept cash, personal check, bank check, money order or I can bill you through Paypal. If you mail a personal check, I must receive it in time for it to clear at the bank before you come to pick up your puppy. If you choose Paypal, there will be a $10 fee added to your Paypal invoice to cover their fees.
Then for the remaining $650 balance, I will accept CASH ONLY on the day of pick up unless you'd prefer to pay the balance in full in advance through Paypal. (Just remember, there will be a fee associated with paying through Paypal.)
I would also like to add a personal thought. Being that there are so many males in this litter and it seems that the majority of people who have emailed me in the past are looking for a female, I must say... males make absolutely wonderful pets as well! I've been told by some that males lift their leg on everything which is why they do not want one... however, if they are neutered early before they learn that habit, they will squat. Males do tend to be a little larger but not enough that it makes a real difference in which you choose. Honestly, my males are my favorite because from my many years of experience with Golden's, I have learned that they always tend to be calmer, more loving and less moody than females. I understand that its truly a personal preference but my suggestion is to do some research on the internet and don't automatically assume which one you want. Come and play with them and choose the one you want based on your love of the puppy... not just because its a male or female!
I have tried to be thorough and give you as much information as I possibly can think of but please feel free to email me with any further questions you may have!! If you are interested in a puppy, please tell me a little about yourself and your family because I always want to make sure all of my puppies go to wonderful loving new homes where they will be happy and well taken care of!!
Thank you for looking at my puppies!!
***Photos posted with this ad are from the previous 2 litters because my current puppies are not old enough to be photographed running around and playing quite yet. Current photos of this litter will be posted as age allows. Being from the same parents, you can expect them to look very similar.***
