Hi!  I'd like to thank you for visiting my website Cromwell Goldens. My name is Margie and since the first day I can remember, I have always had a love and appreciation for dogs. I believe I acquired this from my Grandmother, who always had at least 3 dogs on her farm where I lived with my Mother and Sisters.  Since I've been on my own, at the ripe old age of 18, I have owned dogs. My first being Chelsea, a mix breed that I aquired from the Hopkinton Humane Society. I then purchased a Lhasa Apso, Madison from a breeder. I loved the happy personality of this dog and decided to begin breeding these wonderful dogs. During this time, I purchased a Boxer, Ruckus, a Bloodhound, Rudy, and a pug Phoebe (I still have Rudy and Phoebe) all awhile having happy Lhasas around. When Madison passed on, I decided that I wanted to pursue another type of breed. When I bought my first Golden, I instantly fell in love. The loyalty and attentiveness of this dog appealed to me and I decided to begin research on this wonderful dog to begin my own breeding program. I am NOT a large operation and do not produce puppies for breeders. 

Up front, it was my desire to select specific Goldens for breeding. I look for the overall appearance that I myself, deem appealing in a Golden. Of course, temperment is key to a Golden and at the top of my list of choosing which dog will be bred. I will not breed a dog whose temperment is questionable. I invest my off-work time into training and health maintance. My dogs are my children and as such, they will go through health screenings  before being breed. I do this to help ease the potential of problems to their offsprings as Goldens are prone to these concerns.  I begin the screening process at 6 months with PennHip (PH).    I hope that by using  PennHIP this will help by lessening the potential of hip issues in the pups born here while hopefully genetically improving on the hips.  I, of course, cannot guarantee this but want you to know that  I  try my best to breed only the dogs with the better genes! Depending on how the pup scores determines whether or not I continue with the health screening (elbow xrays, heart and eyes).  In addition to health screenings, I also believe it is my responsibility as a breeder to give our puppies a good start in life and to provide them with the tools necessary to succeed as athletes and well rounded pets.To the best of my ability, I want to make sure that when you go home with your pup he/she comes from a happy healthy paent and is a happy well adjusted puppy. 

My dogs are all raised in my home and interact everyday with me, my husband and my children. They are treated with love and respect, and cared for with only the highest standards.  Our home is where my Golden family eat & sleep. We have a large fenced in area where our puppies have room to romp and play with their parents and siblings and where my adult females can interact with each other. My male, Harry has the run of the back yard, you can tell this by the pile of stuffed geese he keeps in the corner of where the house meets the garage.

Now, a little info on the Goldens I have here:

All of the Goldens I breed have been imported into the USA from Canada, Russia, Poland and Portugual. This type of Golden Retriever is known for its black pigmented skin color as well as its friendly dark eyes paired with a "cream colored coat". They have an extraordinary "blocky head" with a wide skull and a thick muzzle and are known for wide angular shoulders and hind quarters. Goldens have extremely expressive faces with kind loving eyes.They have a thick coat which ranges in coloring from white to goldish red. The texture of their top coat is a bit courser and shorter and they have feathering on their chest, legs, hind quarters and tail. Weekly brushing and a good diet helps the your Golden to have less shedding. I feel diet is extrememly important and have incorporated the raw diet with an excellent dry dog food. Currently today I use Kirkland mixed with Innova.
