Expecting Litter Fall of 2023:  Pearl's Puppies

From Our Family to Yours

Our dogs are our family. When it comes to breeding, our dogs’ health is our highest priority – we would never push our dogs to a point that would negatively affect their health or well-being for the sake of puppies or profit.
Before breeding, we screen our dogs via OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) testing standards for healthy hips, elbows, heart, eyes, and thyroid; beyond these procedures, we also genetically test our dog’s DNA. We require these tests, with favorable results, from both parents. By analyzing this data, we can appropriately select a compatible breeding pair to avoid common conditions that are otherwise preventable in the offspring; this improves the Golden Retriever Breed as a whole.
We genuinely care about our puppies and their lifelong well-being with their new families. When they leave our family to join yours, we want you to know that we take pride and do all we can to authenticate your new companion and their health.

Application

If you are interested in adding an Oak Bluff puppy to your family, we would like to connect with you to ensure a perfect match. At the bottom of this page, you find a link to an application; it will ask a few questions about yourself and why you want a Golden Retriever.  Upon approval of puppy applications, we charge a $25.00 application fee in leiu of charging an entire, up front deposit to hold your position in line. We do this to ensure the seriousness of the parties inquiring to adopt one of our puppies – we will apply this amount to the deposit when it comes time. Once we receive your application, we will review it and get in touch with you; if we believe you are a great fit, we will notify you and place you in the next available position to receive a puppy. 

Deposit

To be as genuine as possible, we do not accept official deposits before a confirmed pregnancy of a planned litter. Once the pregnancy of a planned litter is confirmed, we will reach out to the first three male and female preference positions; at this point, we require an official deposit and a signed contract to solidify your rank in the litter’s puppy-choosing order. Your paid application fee will be applied to the deposit amount. Once the litter has been birthed and the official sex ratio of the puppies is confirmed, we will reach out to the remaining applicants in chronological order to fill the remaining positions as the litter count allows. If a pre-birth deposit is accepted at the time of pregnancy confirmation and the litter does not allow sufficient numbers for the preferred choice of sex, we will refund the deposit and hold your application until the next planned litter.

Choosing Your Puppy

Puppy selection comes when the litter reaches 6 weeks of age; by this point, we have begun early-stage socialization and have posted numerous individual pictures on our social media sites for viewing. From the time of birth, each puppy is individually marked with a color-coded system to distinguish them. We invite the new-to-be owners to our kennel via scheduled appointment to view the puppies in person to make their choice; If an in-person visit is not possible, we are willing to help accommodate your puppy choice via video call, photos, and recorded video.

Puppy choices are determined by the ranks in which applications/deposits are received. 

Vaccinations, Medical Exams, & Go-Home Dates

Within three days of birth, the puppies will have their dewclaws removed by our veterinarian. At the 2-, 4-, and 6-week age thresholds, the puppies will be administered deworming treatments at our kennel. At six weeks of age, the puppies will be brought into our local veterinarian for general medical examination as well as their first round of vaccinations; We will provide vaccination information to the new owners at the time of pickup for reference to your veterinarian of choice after taking possession; you must schedule an appointment with your veterinarian of choice before picking up your puppy to arrange for their second-due vaccinations which come due around the 10-12 week age point.

The puppies will be available to go home upon the 8-week age mark.
