A Healthier Beginning for Your Next English Golden Retriever

​Why Choose a Creekside English Golden Retriever Puppy?

Sadly, our first contact with many families occurs after losing a beloved Golden to cancer or other illness at an early age.  They don’t want to go through the heartache of this type of loss again and are searching for an alternative with their new puppy.  We ARE that alternative…….

As a dedicated English Golden Retriever breeder since 2006, our family has remained focused on raising English Golden Retriever puppies in a way that supports excellent health throughout their lives.  Our dogs live and grow on 450 unspoiled acres in the mountains of Southwestern Virginia, where spring water runs clear year-round and there’s no shortage of fresh air, sunshine and open space. In this diverse bio-secure area, we are able to avoid toxic chemicals and feed a species-appropriate diet – because a strong start IS the foundation for a lifetime of health for your English Golden Retriever puppy.

Natural Rearing

 

While we believe a strong genetic pedigree is vitally important – we also believe that environmental factors make a huge difference in health and longevity – and that the right environment THROUGH THE GENERATIONS is crucial for avoiding cancer and many other diseases that plague our canine friends in this present day.

Early Socialization

 

A wide variety of children and adults play an integral role in the socialization and development of the puppies from the time of birth and assist in their care as well as making sure they get plenty of exercise. The puppies are included in our day-to-day routines, and this produces a well-adjusted and happy puppy ready to bond with you.

Quality Nutrition

 

Our English Golden puppies are given the best nutritional start possible because we feed a canine-appropriate diet which includes a combination of raw foods and premium adult/puppy kibble formulas with human grade ingredients as well as a variety of natural and immune-boosting supplements.

Delivery & Pickup Options

Owner Fly-In

The very small and easy-to-navigate regional airport of TRI-Cities in Bristol, TN (one hour from us) is serviced by Delta and American Airlines as well as Allegiant (seasonally to Florida cities of Tampa and Orlando).  Only a 30 minute layover is required – as you arrive and depart on the same aircraft.  

Other nearby airports (2 hours distance) are McGhee Tyson in Knoxville, Tennessee  and Asheville Regional in North Carolina – both offer great itineraries to major US cities.  Upon landing, you can rent a car to make the trip to us OR to minimize your layover, our puppy chauffeur can meet you at the airport. 

For locations on the West Coast, incoming and outgoing flights may be difficult to schedule on the same day, so an overnight stay at a nearby pet-friendly hotel will allow you to fly out the following morning. 

American Airlines - TriCities (TRI) to Dallas or TRI to Chicago

 You or our airline nanny can utilize either of these 2-1/2 hour flights from our local airport to quickly traverse the country to DFW in Dallas or O’Hare in Chicago.  

Car Travel - Puppy Chauffeur

If you prefer not to travel for pickup, we are able to offer convenient transport options:  

Chauffeur service is routinely available for destinations up to 5 hours drive in any direction.  We are happy to meet in-between or bring the puppy right to your door. 

We may also be able to offer this service for destinations of longer duration in the Southeast/Northeast/Mid-Atlantic/Central regions of the US – so let us know your customized needs.

Hear What Our Families Have To Say

I purchased Henry from you in 2016.  I took him to the vet last month for his eight-year-old check up and he has a perfectly clean bill of health. The vets were shocked that he was actually eight years old and thought that he was three or four. His bloodwork, eyes, ears, and coat are all excellent for being “senior.” (I hate to use the word senior)

Henry is truly the light of my life and he is very much loved and adored by our entire family. He is so gentle and sweet, but also goofy and loving. I just wanted to reach out to you and give you an update that he is still doing well and is one of the healthiest dogs that the vet has ever seen. I absolutely attribute that to his breeding and upbringing! 

I was looking through the photo gallery on your website, and Henry‘s picture is still on there. He is in my police car as a puppy. That made me so happy!! 

I hope that we still have many years with Henry, but I will absolutely be reaching back out to you down the road when the time comes for another puppy. I get compliments on Henry’s looks and temperament everywhere we go. Thank you for this wonderful dog!!
