About the Puppies

BLISS IS THE LAST PUPPY FROM OUR Litter " B ": THAT IS STILL AVAILABLE

 9 Golden Retriever puppies (born October 30th) – 2 females, 7 males.   

These puppies came to us at just one week old after their breeder realized they were not thriving in his outdoor kennels. Sadly, one puppy passed away at 4 days old due to the cold. Since then, we’ve stepped in to provide the care they need. Puppies are gaining weight and are healthy.

2. Someone must be home more during the day to devote time to a puppy.


3. Children in the household must be 8 years or older.


4. Families with no dogs or one dog will be considered (no multiple-dog households).


5. You agree to use a puppy pen, not a crate. Approved applicants will receive information on recommended pens.


6. Applicants must live in Indiana or neighboring states. We do not transport or ship puppies.

Puppy Health & Policy

• Puppies will receive regular deworming, age-appropriate vaccinations, and will be microchipped before adoption.


• Puppies will not be spayed/neutered before adoption.


• Early spay/neutering in large breeds (especially Golden Retrievers) can increase the risk of joint and hip issues.


• Adopters must sign a binding spay/neuter agreement and submit a $75 deposit, refunded once proof of procedure is provided at the appropriate age.


• Puppies cannot be given as Christmas presents to others. The applicant must attend the adoption appointment in person, provide proof of ID, and sign an Adoption Contract stating they will not rehome the puppy.


• Moms are not available for adoption at this time
