HI EVERYONE, JUST AN UPDATE DUE TO A HUGE INCREASE IN SPAM CALLS, I ASK THAT YOU NOT CALL, BUT TEXT OR EMAIL ME. (805)705-5237. [email protected] THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING.

Over the 45 plus years that I have been active with the Golden Retriever Breed; health and temperament have become a major concern. This has become such an important issue to me, that I have begun importing English Golden Retrievers from other countries, hoping to mix the American Golden Retriever bloodlines.

My intent is to produce a beautiful Golden Retriever, with an improved immune system, good health and a wonderful mellow temperament. Due to new information that seems to come in daily, we find we are working hard to be more holistic on behalf of our Golden Friends. Many of you already know of my concern with the current flea controls which are chemicals applied to our pets or ingested by them. We are using and have for many years, Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), 100 mg capsules given daily, B1 causes the dog (or human) to produce an odor that insects don’t like. Works well for fleas and mosquitos. You purchase it in your own health food store, not a pet store. There is the 2013 study out of U. C. Davis regarding the health issues with early neutering of male and female goldens.
