We’re a breeder of Golden Retriever puppies in upstate NY. Our approach to producing puppies is, limited-quantities of the highest-qualities. When we reach this goal we place dogs in the right homes, not just any home, but in homes where we know our dogs will thrive and live a full life celebrated each and everyday as they deserve to be.
Fun Fact – The photo above of Mountain Maggie Moose won an award and was used by L.L. Bean at their flagship store in Freeport Maine, and on thousands of L.L. Bean Gift Cards.
Family first
We stay a family even after our puppies go home
At Moose Goldens, our dogs are family. They live in our home, travel with us, and are part of our daily lives. This sense of community extends beyond adoption—our puppy owners stay connected, sharing updates, experiences, and support. We offer boarding for returning dogs and are always available to answer questions and provide guidance.
Our focus is on producing healthy, traditional Golden Retrievers with the intelligence, athleticism, and temperament true to the breed’s origins. With training, our puppies excel equally as family companions, in competition, fieldwork, therapy, or search and rescue. Whether you seek an adventurous outdoor partner or an energetic, loving family dog, a Moose Golden Retriever is ready to grow and thrive alongside you.
Why we breed
There’s truly nothing like a Golden Retriever. Their lifelong companionship offers countless rewards—far beyond what words can capture. They bring families closer, spark adventure, work with heart, and show an eagerness to please. Their gentle disposition, heartfelt compassion, and unconditional love are unmatched. With their feathery coats and infectious smiles, they bring joy wherever they go.
For over 25 years, our family has been lucky to experience the magic of living with Golden Retrievers. But beyond the joy of raising them, we’ve found even deeper fulfillment in introducing others to the breed, sharing what we’ve learned, and growing our extended dog-loving family. Breeding allows us to put our stamp on history helping to preserve this amazing breed, and pass along the charisma, warmth, and happiness that Golden Retrievers bring into the world—and that’s why we do it.
