Welcome to Bolt Family Goldens! We are a family-owned business pursuing the goal to raise healthy, high-quality AKC Golden Retriever puppies for loving families.
2022 Update: We are sad to announce that after almost 9 years of breeding we've decided to retire our last mama dog and will no longer be breeding anymore. We thank you for your interest and support! If you would like another breeder recommendation or have any puppy questions please feel free to still contact us! :)
Hello everyone, my name is Mary Bolt! Since 2015, my younger sister (Abby) and I have raised golden retriever puppies in our home and enjoyed watching them grow up and be adopted by such wonderful families! What started out as a fun summer project eventually turned into the start of a small, intermittent business.
Thanks to technology, we've been able to keep in touch with many of our puppies' families and hope to do the same with future litters! In 2018, ten of the puppies and their families even got together for a little family reunion! (You can see pictures on our Instagram page!)
Our ultimate goal is to responsibly breed and raise strong, healthy puppies that will live their best life in the best homes we can find them. This being said, we take our screening and interview process very seriously in order to find the families that are the best match for a pup!

We like to use the term, "family raised" to differentiate from full time breeders who have several litters and raise their puppies outside. We only have one litter a year to ensure our mama dog is in her best health. From whelping, each litter has been raised inside our home with constant attention and care until they are old enough to go to their new homes. The puppies are given lots of social contact with other dogs, children, and adults throughout their first nine weeks. We do our best to provide the puppies with the best care and the safest, healthy environment we can provide. We also thoroughly interview potential families to ensure it will be a good match for both sides!
