Golden Hearts Retrievers

Stephen was easy to work with and we couldn’t of asked for a better dog. We picked up our boy in July of 2020. A very smart, handsome boy.

We had a great experience with Golden Hearts Retrievers. Stephen took the time to walk us through all the necessary information in great detail and answered all of our questions. Rex is a healthy and happy pup, and we couldn’t love him more!

Stellar experience beginning to end- Steven was communicative, knowledgeable, and seems to truly care about the pups and makes sure they’re going to a good home. Even followed up afterwards to see how our new pup was getting along with the transition. Really good dude! Our little guy has a great temperament, is happy, vetted healthy, and we just couldn’t be happier with the addition to the family or the experience!

This is our 3rd golden retriever but the first one we have gotten from Golden Hearts. She is the sweetest puppy and in excellent health. Stephen made the process easy and was very transparent about expectations. He gave us weekly updates and pictures, answered all of our questions and gave very specific information when we picked our pup up. He was very responsive to our texts throughout the process. He also gave us a toy, blanket and food to get us started. Couldn’t ask for a better experience- I highly recommend them.

We just picked up our Golden Retriever puppy on October 25 from Stephen at Golden Hearts Retrievers, and I can heartily and confidently recommend him and his business to anyone looking for an exceptional dog and a seamless, professional purchasing experience. We found Golden Hearts through an online search in our home state of North Carolina, and from the point of first contact, through pickup of our little girl pup, and to follow-up, Stephen has been absolutely top notch. He has been in this business long enough to know it well, anticipate questions, and clearly articulate how the process works, and he genuinely loves these dogs. In case you are cautious, if you have never looked online for a puppy, I can assure you that this is a 100 percent professional, reliable, animal-focused small business producing limited numbers of puppies and being very careful and selective in evaluating potential customers to assure that the puppies are going to good homes. Golden Hearts takes care of everything having to do with the puppies' health, including vet visits, initial inoculations and preventive medicine, until the new owner takes possession. Regular photo updates of the litter are texted promptly each week, and an equitable procedure for customers to choose their dogs is in place and well-explained ahead of time. These puppies come from excellent stock and can be registered, if the new owner chooses, with the American Kennel Club by the new owners using paperwork provided by Golden Hearts. Other complete and clear documents are prepared by Golden Hearts, including a sales contract and recommendations for the puppy's first weeks in the new home, and Golden Hearts supplies a week's worth of food, a blanket with the mother's scent, and other goodies to help the pup adjust to its new living arrangements. If you are thinking of getting a Golden Retriever puppy, take a close look at Golden Hearts Retrievers during your research. We could not be more pleased with having chosen Stephen and his business.
