LA’s Golden Hour Pups

03/29/2025

My daughter “ mom, he needs to wear daddy blues collar!”

Me “give him 2 weeks and he’ll fit right in!”

4 weeks tomorrow and he is already over 7 pounds 😆

he is definitely thriving and becoming so fun to watch. A big explorer and pretty chill!

This season has had a number of surprises. What we had planned didn’t go as planned and that’s okay!

On March 2, our first ever singleton was born from Quinn & Blue!

A little back story, we planned to have Quinn skip this season to do a little dog therapy training but she had other plans. So we were unsure what this season was going to bring so we planned to just have Quinn have pups this season. A lot has been going on behind the scenes so we didn’t want to overload ourselves and to be honest, we wanted just one litter this season.

Little did we know was that Quinn would bring us one little pup!

Mr. Uno was brought to this world between 3-4AM on March 2, 2025! A little big surprise for sure!

This little guy is reserved and will be patiently waiting to meet his family in a few short weeks. Till then we are going to give this little guy our full undivided attention! We have already got a glimpse of his personality, although he sleeps 90% of the day, he has been pretty chill, no complaints, and a big boy already weighing of 3.5 pounds. Our previous Quinn/Blue pups have had very desirable personalities and have heard wonderful things from our previous families with their pups. Mr. Uno will most likely be very spoiled by our family !

**we know this may be disappointing to some folks who have been in our waiting list for awhile but this was definitely out of our control! We do plan for pups in the fall season!

Till then please enjoy our content of Mr. Uno for the remainder of our spring season!

Happy Birthday to my beautiful girls 🥹

Harley & Quinn are the most sweetest dogs I have ever met. I couldn’t have asked for better girls! I enjoy working with these two, and they have become the best mamas to their babies. They are sweet, mellow, easy to handle, and such a joy to work with. They have become my soul foundation of my golden retriever program and heck, they have such desirable temperaments, I couldn’t have asked for better goldens. Their loyalty, heartwarming nature, and kind eyes is what makes them stand out!

Happy Birthday to my petite Queen Quinn! You are loyal, too smart for your own good, a wonderful mama, toy stealer, car ride lover, and my right hand pup!

Happy Birthday to my heartwarming girl Harley! You love your apples, chasing butterflies, hugs, would rather be petted than play during “recess”, and your tender touch speaks volumes about how much you appreciate affection.

You girls are the best, happy birthday! Extra treats & pets all around!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to My Boy Blue!! 💙💙

Our frisbee, water-loving, energy packed pup has blessed us with another year! When we brought him home I didn’t know how much this pup would surprise me.

He is a quick learner, eager, talkative, focused, and is up to play a good game of frisbee. He is mind reader, he knows what I want him to do and is a huge people pleaser! Blue is also a beautiful pup to take pictures off, I’ve never taken a bad photo of him!

Blue sired his first litter of pups last fall and I am very pleased with them. Looks, temperament, they were absolutely beautiful! I look forward to little Blues more in the future 😉 he has been a great addition to our golden retriever pack!

Till then, we are celebrating Blue today! Happy Birthday Blue Boy! Now, time for an extra game of frisbee & treats!

Happy FOURTH birthday to Uncle Koda! Our big moose, our ball lover, and food obsessed!

12/07/2024

And that’s a wrap! Our 2024 Fall puppies are all officially home!

Miss Luna is now in the hands of her new family! I have enjoyed working with this family as they have a puppy from our previous spring litter, Ruby. I was so delighted to hear that they were ready for another one!

Miss LuLu was a great guest for us and I know she will be loved with her new family ❤️

Thank you so much and we wish you years of happiness and joy 🐾

Today.. Miss Luna goes HOME! 🏡

Luna has been a great guest for us but her forever home is waiting for her ❤️ Luna stayed with us a little longer as she had a minor procedure done and had to stay with us for extra recovery time. During her stay with us we got to know her VERY WELL.

Miss Luna LOVES other dogs, she favorited Koda. we know that Koda will miss her very much but I think he knows the routine. He will have more puppies to play with in the summertime. Luna loves to chase things, her retrieving instincts are strong and she loves to play with balls. She loves food & treats. She sleeps in her kennel for 12 hours straight! She also likes to sleep on top of her kennel. She is a sturdy little pup and has been very good with our 3 year old daughter. Luna overall is a mellow, fun, and a sweet puppy; she is pretty smart & she loves routine. Luna has been on multiple car rides with us, and visited with many people.

Luna, Looney Tooney, Luna Bean, and Luna girl! We are so very excited for you to go home and make memories with your new family and your puppy cousin from our spring litter! Thank you for blessing us these past 12 weeks 💜

Meet Luna 🤍

She is from our Quinn & Blue pairing, born September 11 2024!

Luna goes home very soon but has been staying with us for a short time! Luna had a minor procedure done which called for some extra time for recovery before she goes home. Her going home date is coming up next weekend so we are enjoying loving on this girl a little longer!

Luna is going home to a sweet; dog-loving family who homed one of my last spring pups! So she will have a half sister to share her home with! I enjoyed working with this particular family and was extremely happy to hear they wanted to take home Miss Luna.

I want to share my experience with Miss Luna with you all!

Luna reminds me of her mama Quinn, she is mild & mellow, also very beautiful. She has her sweet mama’s face.

She can be a little stubborn at times but nothing we can’t handle! She absolutely loves other dogs and has favorited Uncle Koda. We are in the midst of potty training and being alone in the kennel. We are starting to get the hang of both! Luna is very treat driven and smart. She also is very curious about our two kitties, every chance she gets she wants to sneak up to say “hello”! Luna likes to be where we are or wherever Koda is! Uncle Koda is so good to her. Luna will go to her new family with some little kiddos, so making sure Luna is good with kids was a priority, and no surprises here, but she is very good with our Lydia.

Luna has been exposed to small car rides lately and as of today endured a 3 hour round trip, she did amazing. She visited my husbands grandparents in Nebraska and she was very well behaved during our visit.

Luna has been a wonderful puppy for us during her stay, but we have to remember that she is a guest, as she will be with her new family very soon!

Are we sad knowing that she will leave us? Maybe ask us when we have to say goodbye 🥹, but honestly we are excited for her to go to her new home as that is where she belongs 😁 she has a wonderful family waiting for her and I know she will give them lots of love and happiness just as much as she has given us!

So enjoy these updates of Luna, then very soon we will have all of our fall puppies in their new homes ❤️

My last puppy found a home and left this morning! 🥹

Cider, who is now known as Bo, made his way to his home with a dog-loving family! He will have an acreage to explore and two other dogs to tousle & wrestle with! Bo’s family heard about us through a sweet family who was always a referral from another sweet family!

I love hearing these referrals as word of mouth is the best way to spread small business ❤️

Thank you so much for sharing our small business and helping us find homes to these wonderful creatures.

Bo and his sweet family, we wish you many happy & joyous memories with your new companion!

He is home ❤️

Puppies who have found homes in the last couple of days 🥹

Apple went to a sweet family with a little one ! I got a little teary eyed as they drove away since Apple was on my daughter’s mind every morning, “mom, can I hold Apple?”. Even though he was nearly her size, she would still ask to hold him and attempt to! I’m happy that Apple went home to this sweet family as they have a little one, Apple didn’t overpower the little guy, his sweet, mild demeanor is a good fit for this sweet family and their toddler!

Emmy left this morning to a family I have worked with before! They waited till their other golden retriever turned two, which was over a week ago, the timing was perfect and they took spunky, little Emmy home with them to meet her new big brother! I’m very pleased she will go home to a family who already has a golden retriever, Emmy loves other dogs and would prefer to play with them! It’s a good fit!

As more pups are leaving, I feel very grateful to work with such wonderful people. A lot of pups went home to people who received referrals from happy homes, as well as some returning clients, which is always a happy time!

Thank you for trusting me to raising your new furry companion, and I wish you all years of happiness & joy!
