Candy and her kennel

Hello from Candy & CD Goldens,

  When buying from Trumpeter's sometimes Teri will say those are Candy's

litter.  Teri and I have had a long dog business relationship and it has

grown to a friendship/partnership.

  I have been raising Golden Retrievers since 2004.  CD Goldens follows

the same vaccine/worming protocol as Trumpeters.  Teri micro chips and

photographs my puppies for me.  I honor the same health

guarantee/purchase contract and our puppy packets/paperwork is the same.

 Teri and I share the same philosophy of providing families with high

quality golden retriever puppies.  This can be seen as we have several

dams/sires from the same lines.

  Yes the puppies and parents are here at my home (not Teri's) in

Missouri.  You would need to come here for meet/greet and/or pickup.  

Teri is located a stones throw from the Missouri line and I am a stones

throw from the Iowa line so if additional distance is a concern I am

only about 20 minutes from her.  I built a new facility in 2018 after

the convincing from Dwayne.  I had went through a divorce several years

ago and almost quit breeding. When Dwayne and I got together he realized

how much I missed having my goldens with me.  I turned him into a

lifetime golden lover and he refers to the adults as "our children" and

the puppies as the rugrats.

  Teri and I met shortly after I started breeding as I used her for

transporting the puppies to their new home.

  I soon found that most people are shopping/browsing with lots of

questions during the daytime.  As I work full time at the local bank it

was difficult for me to give the people the full attention they deserved

to make the decision about buying a new "furball".  I also discovered

puppy picture taking was not a strong quality of mine.  Teri agreed to

take the pictures and advertise my puppies for me.

  Teri and I work together and depend on each other to continually

strive to provide better quality puppies.  We constantly use the other

for a sounding board. Thanks for your interest and taking the time to

view my page!  Candy
