Welcome! Here at Bear State Golden Retrievers, we are committed to building relationships as well as raising beautiful, confident, happy, healthy, socialized European & American type AKC Golden Retrievers. We are a small home-based Breeder located in Orangevale, CA. Our mission is to selectively and carefully better the Golden Retriever breed. We work to follow breed standards, fully health test and assess temperament before any adults are officially added to our program. The dogs within our program are examined by Licensed veterinarians, Orthopedic Specialists, Ophthalmologists and Cardiologists for their health clearances. Our puppies are temperament tested for placement as it helps us have a better understanding of which puppy would be the best fit for each family based on the puppy’s potential & the family’s lifestyle. Most puppies in our litters will have a very similar temperament and personality. We allow puppy selections that are within our recommendations. Our puppies’ well being is our main priority and we reserve the ultimate decision of where our puppies call home. Our Goldens tend to have a Moderate energy level on average for the breed. They are very happy to meet new people, active, intelligent, eager to please & have a solid drive to enjoy fun outdoor activities but are typically much calmer with training and in a relaxed home environment. They are also goofy, loving, playful, confident, friendly, tennis ball obsessed and water obsessed. Our Goldens enjoy retrieving, swimming, hiking, camping, running, games of chase, playing with other dogs, being their owner’s “shadow”, snuggling on the couch, carrying various items around(usually socks & shoes), being silly and getting lots of attention. We work to show and title our dogs to prove drive, temperament & trainability within the breed standard. As a breeder.. we are constantly learning, working with other like-minded breeders and improving our program where necessary to align with our goals. All of our dogs & litters are raised and live inside the comfort of our home in a loving family environment. We do not operate as a kennel, our dogs are family members and are treated as such. Our breedings are limited to only a couple litters per year and we begin accepting applications a couple months before the puppies arrive. Golden Retrievers are amazing(we’re a little biased) but they’re not for everyone.. please do your research, have an understanding of the breed and ensure that they align with your lifestyle prior to reaching out to breeders.
