About Us

Thank you for your interest in Front Porch Goldens!

We purchased our first Golden Retriever, Kona, over ten years ago. Our love for these dogs began with her! Our oldest daughter, Gracelin, eventually saved her money and brought home Hazel as a middle schooler. Through Hazel we were introduced to her English Cream Golden Retriever line. We were so impressed by Hazel's temperament, trainability, and devotion that we found an English Cream male, Rio, and added him to our family with the intention of starting a breeding program. Since then, we have continued developing and improving our lines.

We love our puppies, and this is a family effort. Our kids have active roles in caring for the puppies and the adult dogs, and our dogs live on our couches and beds, wait under the table while we eat, and jump in the car to go to softball games with us! They continue to bless our lives with their love.  Our dogs have always been and always will be family companions first. 

We are grateful to have this opportunity to raise dogs and provide your family with a beautiful, loving companion. Thank you again for stopping by! Feel free to contact us with any questions. We love to discuss our dogs and which puppy may be a good fit for you!
