Payments for puppies can be sent through various apps. 

We prefer you to Zelle  rangelfamilygoldens@outlook.com .

By approval we can take Cash App or Venmo payment through personal account (friends/ family) only.

Final payment for puppy from customers who have low limits for Zelle must make multiple payments at 1 payment each day until paid or if not enough allowable time balance will be required in cash(large bills only) at pick up.

Checks are by approval only. Check must be written to Jennifer Rangel and clear before puppy will be reserved. Check must be cleared 15 days before pick up date as we can't take checks at pick up.

After submitting a payment, I will verify payment and hold your place in the picking order and send you reservation receipt contract.

For a credit car payment option, it is only on approval basis so you must contact via text to discuss.

You will have the option for us to administer the first DPv vaccine on puppies at go home date, get vaccines started yourself if preferred and no later than 16 weeks of age, when the mothers antibodies have worn off to avoid over vaccinating. We ask that you make sure they don't have vaccine at first wellness exam if opted for vaccine on pick up day or your pup will be over vaccinated and can get sick. 

We give puppies vitamins and Diatomaceous at 8-10 days until they go home. We worm our pups starting at 2 weeks old. At their first vet check up their hearts, dentition, eyes, scrotum (if applies) is all thoroughly checked. Keep in mind some males testicles are not always found this early and need to be checked again.

Golden Retriever Puppies Should Be Raised in A Home

Our Golden Retriever puppies are born & raised in our master bathroom/master sitting area/family/living room areas in our home.  In the beginning, the first 3 weeks they are in a Whelping Box/Kiddie pool as it has been the best option for keeping a clean environment, best for Mom to get in and out, and the puppies are safe in their area.   Subsequently, at 3 weeks, we move the puppies to our puppy room.  Their playpen is an approximately 5′ x 6′ playpen where the puppies can see and hear everything around them, however we do use blankets to give them a closed in space for resting.  At 31/2 weeks we introduce them to grass and city noise in playpen area for protection and the envioronment offers our puppies optimum opportunities for socialization which is a necessity for puppies at this stage of their life.   As a result, the puppies are exposed to most household noises and city noises that await them with their new family. Finally, our Golden Retriever puppies are ready for their new homes at approximately 7 -8 weeks old.   

Please see our Temperament Testing page. I spend my time focusing on what I can work on while they are with me and training them to eat and go outdoors to the restroom. They are on a schedule routine At 7 weeks which you will need to continue to keep them fully potty trained. They will have a great start as we do everything we can while they are in our care to prepare them for transitioning to their new homes. I discontinued temperament testing after learning over time it takes away from giving them the time and training I want to work on and they change when they go home so I believe it is more important to work on what is needed. They are babies so you need to love them and give them time for adjustment. You should enroll in training near you to make this the best experience for all.

There have been several studies done on what is healthier for a breeding female and the results of these studies conclusively show that it is healthier for a female to be bred every heat instead of every other heat. The majority opinion amongst both veterinarians (including ours) as well as canine repro specialists is conclusively, that this is the healthiest option. We do not believe that because you breed every heat that you should continue to breed as long as those that don’t breed every heat, which means that our breeding females retire earlier than those breeders that breed every other heat. Our girls are usually retired by 5-6 years old and spayed. While it is healthier to breed every heat we also think that breeders need to use common sense and make sure that their females are back to a healthy weight before breeding again, as well as, judging on a case by case knowing what is right for your female and her health so there is exceptions and we retire with good judgement for our girls individually.

Thank you to those who want to visit our home.  We work hard to create an environment that works for us, our pups, and adults. You may have read that a good breeder will allow you into their home/facility. Many people question if they can pick out, see, or play with the puppies before they are ready to go at 8 weeks old. The answer to the question is NO. There are several reasons why we do not let anyone around the new puppies between birth and 8 weeks – all to protect our dogs and your puppy.

It is extremely stressful for the moms to have strangers visit as she is caring for her new litter. This in turn will put stress on the new born pups. Remember, you are one of many people who are getting a puppy, not including everyone else who “just want to peek at the new babies.” If we allow everyone to see, touch, or spend time with the new pups, the moms routine would be disrupted: her eating and caring for pups and even her ability to produce enough healthy milk for them could be at risk.

Like a new baby, the opportunity for young pups to pick up infectious diseases is increased with all new contacts. Their immune systems are building, so at this time, the moms and pups live in whelping nests which have controlled temperatures and are separate from all outside traffic. Most illnesses and diseases are innocently carried on people’s shoes and clothing. Entire litters of puppies can be wiped out within 48 hours by the puppy killer parvo virus. This disease could be picked up unknowingly by people in a school yard, a park, or on a sidewalk, and this is only one disease. We can not risk exposing our dogs and your puppy to diseases that could destroy them.

Your puppy is not the only puppy. By protecting all of our puppies from stress and disease that could be brought on by high traffic, we are protecting your puppy. Just think about how you would feel if someone who just wanted to see his or her pup happened to bring in stress or illness that would cause us to lose a litter and you to lose your future puppy.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. We take great care and much time caring for all of our dogs and their puppies. It is time and energy consuming. This is what we do best, so please let us do it. We understand your excitement, and we are happy that you are enthusiastic about getting your pup. But until you take your puppy home, we are responsible and the puppy’s health and safety is our priority. I guarantee you that in 8 weeks after the birth it will be well worth your wait.

To help you stay connected with the puppies journey from birth to going to your home, every litter has a closed face book group that I update with pics and videos until they are ready for you to visit. Additionally, we do this so that you see what’s going on without compromising our bio-security for our puppies and our pack. But please, we ask you to honor our program (and ultimately, your puppies) by respecting our policy.

We are AKC accredited breeders, but we are NOT a puppy mill or kennel. We strongly believe that proper socialization cannot be achieved in a kennel-type environment.

We are simply a family that loves Goldens who care for them as members of our own family. Our mission and top priority is to breed for temperament, health, and beauty.

One of your first considerations when selecting a male or female puppy should be the weight and height of an adult Golden Retriever. Males measure about 23 – 24 inches (58-61 cm) in height at withers (shoulder) and weigh approximately 65 to 95 lbs. Females stand 21-1/2 – 22-1/2 inches (55-57 cm) at the withers and weigh approximately 55 to 75 pounds at maturity. The difference in temperament of a male and a female is rather subtle.
