Havana Golden Retrievers

Havana Golden Retrievers Breeder of Golden Retrievers for companionship, performance, and field work located in Owatonna, Minnesota. Hello! Our dogs are allergy and seizure free.

We are dedicated to healthy dogs with great temperaments! My name is Megan, and I want to thank you for your interest in Havana Golden Retrievers! The first thing you need to know is that I love what I do and value each and every one of my dogs and puppies. Golden Retrievers have been a passion of mine since a young age. I have over ten years of experience working with dogs in many settings includ

ing breeding and training. Havana Golden Retrievers is a small kennel, but we take what we do very seriously. We are located in Owatonna, Minnesota on a six acre hobby farm. Our dogs are health tested by the OFA for hip dysplasia as well as thoroughly examined regularly by our veterinarian. We work closely with our vet to assure all of our dogs are cleared for breeding. In addition to health clearances, our dogs participate in training programs and performance trials to prove their temperaments. We strive to breed dogs that are true to the Golden temperament-- dogs that are loyal, loving family members. Our goal is that our Goldens are versatile and can go in any direction you desire to take them whether that is a performance dog, a therapy prospective, a hunting partner, or a lifetime family companion. Xena has completed her NA and NAJ agility titles and will continue to compete after her next litter of puppies. She loves to retrieve balls from the lake, adores children, has a natural hunting drive, and has a fun, sassy personality. Xena comes from field lines and also has many siblings that are therapy dogs and hunting companions. Finnick is currently in training for rally and will hopefully start competing this spring. He is a "people person" and is what every person thinks about when envisioning the loving Golden personality. Finnick comes from very diverse lines with champions in conformation, agility, rally, obedience, and hunting. All puppies are AKC registered (limited) and come with first shots, deworming, vet exam, dew claws removed, a two year health guarantee, a blanket with the mother's scent on it, puppy food, and lifetime breeder support. We also offer training advice and lessons if desired. In order to make the transition from our home to your home as easy as possible, our puppies will come to you well socialized. They will be exposed to kids, other animals, new environments, multiple surfaces/objects, and a variety of everyday noises. All puppies will also be exposed to a crate and started on potty training. Please feel free to contact us at any time in regards to puppies, dogs, or training. If you are interested in being put on our waiting list, please send us a message. We can then interview you and email you a puppy questionnaire. If we agree that it is a fit at that time, you will be placed on the waiting list. Once an ultrasound confirms puppies are on the way, a REFUNDABLE deposit will secure your place on the list. I reserve the right to deny anyone a puppy if I feel the home is not a proper fit.

Part of cultivating well-rounded and socialized puppies is providing the opportunity to explore something new each day. Who knew a diaper box provided such an experience for puppies? It’s currently nap time, but every time they wake up it’s so cute to watch them explore at only 2.5 weeks old!

Let's be real. People are less than thrilled when we (the trainers) start talking about management. A client asks about counter surfing, and our first recommendation is to clear off the counters.

Our Story

Hello! My name is Megan, and I want to thank you for your interest in Havana Golden Retrievers! The first thing you need to know is that I love what I do and value each and every one of my dogs and puppies. Golden Retrievers have been a passion of mine since a young age. I have over fifteen years of experience working with dogs in many settings including breeding and training. Havana Golden Retrievers is a small kennel, but we take what we do very seriously. We are located in Owatonna, Minnesota on a six acre hobby farm. Our dogs are health tested by the OFA as well as thoroughly examined regularly by our veterinarian. We work closely with our vet to assure all of our dogs are cleared for breeding. In addition to health clearances, our dogs participate in training programs and performance events to prove their temperaments and intelligence. We strive to breed dogs that are true to the Golden temperament-- dogs that are loyal, loving family members. Our goal is that our Goldens are versatile and can go in any direction you desire to take them whether that is a performance dog, a therapy prospective, a hunting partner, or a lifetime family companion. Xena has completed her NA and NAJ agility titles. She loves to retrieve balls from the lake, adores children, has a natural hunting drive, and has a fun, sassy personality. Xena comes from field lines and also has many siblings that are therapy dogs and hunting companions. Xena just had her last litter of pups and will be retiring this year. We will be keeping her and not rehoming her. Finnick has completed his TKA (Advanced Trick Dog) title and his RE (Rally Excellent) title. He is a "people person" and is what every person thinks about when envisioning the loving Golden personality. Finnick comes from very diverse lines with champions in conformation, agility, rally, obedience, and hunting.

Cinder has completed her TKA (Advanced Trick Dog) title and has her RN (Rally Novice Title). She has also shown in conformation and has earned her National and International Champion titles. Cinder is the most versatile dog I have ever owned. She is driven and always eager to please. Even though she can work hard all day, she still knows how to settle and be a lover when it’s time to relax in the home. In addition to the diversification listed above, she has amazing hunt instinct. Although we personally do not hunt, I watched her find and flush her first planted game on our property this past year. She’s got an impressively quick nose and wonderful instinct.

Flare has completed her RN (Rally Novice Title) and is one leg away from her RA. She has also shown in conformation and has earned her National and International Puppy Champion titles. Flare has a lot of drive and is a hard worker. She appears to have natural hunt instinct as well, but we haven’t completed instinct testing on her yet. At just a year old, we are excited to see where this girl goes in the future. All puppies are AKC registered (limited) and come with first shots, deworming, vet exam, a two year health guarantee, a blanket with the mother's scent on it, puppy food, and lifetime breeder support. We also offer training advice and lessons if desired. In order to make the transition from our home to your home as easy as possible, our puppies will come to you well socialized.
