Autumn is the offspring of our Remy & Rusty, the pick of the litter & joy of our lives. She loves to play catch, swimming in any body of water, snuggling in close, & loves being part of the pack. She is as sweet natured, calm, & incredibly easy to train with excellent human focus. Her "happy tail" & adorable "puppy eyes" are some of our favorite features. We call her a "forever puppy" because she looks like one! Autumn is gentle & loving with kids & could play all day.  She's the best of both Remy & Rusty!

She has her mom's (Remy) gorgeous silky, flat, copper-toned coat & her dad's (Rusty) beautiful feathering & lighter shade of Golden overall. Her AKC breed lineage (available upon request) continue's the beautiful & healthy lines we've begun here at Growing Great Goldens. She is petite, at about 55-60 lbs pounds, 22" tall, a very smooth gate & beautiful features.

Temperament is fun, attentive, sweet, lovable, happy, calm, affectionate, human-focused & very easily trained.  

She has a clean bill of health from our Reproductive Vet, Embark DNA health tested & 100% CLEAR. She received the highest EXCELLENT OFA Hips score & Normal OFA Elbows.

Legend Tucker

AKC # SS22331110

OFA Elbows: Normal

OFA Hips: Good

AKC CGC

~65 lbs, blocky athletic build

We've chosen this stud for his temperament, health, & size to pair perfectly with Autumn.

More about Legend, from his mom (Jessica Tucker):

Legend is a sweet, smart boy who loves to be active and also knows how to be gentle with little ones. He loves a good zoom in the back yard, swim in the lake, hike in the mountains, or jog in the neighborhood. He stays close when we are out and will stay on heel even when other dogs pass by. 

He befriends every person and creature that he can, though he does growl and bark at bears or lions on TV. (I still suspect that he would wag his tail if he saw a bear in real life.) He has been known to adopt abandoned kittens around our home and nurture them to the point that they still snuggle him as grown cats. He seems to be sensitive to fragile animals and children, and even sad adults.

Most of all, he loves his family. He loves to be with us all the time and does get sad when he has to stay home. He has always been quick to train because of how eager he is to please. Legend has brought so much joy to our family.

We're so excited to have some Legend x Autumn puppies for families this Summer!

He is gentle, calm, with exceptional trainability. Playful, energetic, with a medium drive he can easily stop & be chill inside or in a car. Exceptional scent tracking ability & so gentle with children. Ransom is affectionate, loves water, & fetching  packages of mail!

~70 lbs, 23" tall

She is the softest, fluffiest, & sweetest girl. At 70 lbs, & 23" height, she thinks she’s a tiny lap dog & will snuggle under your arm or climb right onto your lap & slobber you with many wet kisses any chance she gets! 

Remy has show dogs, hunting dogs, & many OFA (good) tested parents in her lineage & is healthy & happy through & through. Her AKC breed lineage pedigree is available upon request. Her rich dark Golden copper coat is just gorgeous with a slight light variation (within breed standard) around her chest. Her large ears are velveteen-rabbit-soft & floppy as can be. She has medium-length feminine feathering. Her tail never stops wagging & she has the cutest puppy dog eyes - not to mention the most adorable tongue that hangs out the side of her mouth when she wants to be extra cute & silly. 

Temperament is remarkably endearing, sociable, intuitive, & very playful.  She’s a quick learner, super smart & loves to please & love on everyone & anyone! This girl is so calm & sweet yet incredibly confident & assertive-the most perfect balance.

She has a clean bill of health from her reproductive Vet & Embark DNA & health tested & 100% CLEAR. Click on the button below to view her health summary, you must be logged into embark (free) account to view. 

She loves the water & running free on the homestead with our kids, the cats, chickens, & of course her BFF Rusty & daughter, Autumn. Remy is just precious & has produced three amazing, healthy, physically sound litters of puppies that are over 2+ years old. We're so proud of the intelligence, health, & temperaments she's passed on to her offspring! We cannot wait to share her amazing health, temperament & many wonderful traits with more families!

Rusty has a slender, healthy, athletic build. He could run & play all day but equally loves curling up with the family for a good belly rub. He hasn't missed an adventure with us yet & has traveled across the country with us multiple times.

His AKC breed lineage (available upon request) favors his strong sporting line with multiple breeding pairs OFA tested (good), he is an amazing dog! Rusty’s coat is a light consistent Golden shade & very soft & fluffy with great wave to it. He’s 68 pounds, 22.5" height, with a classic, yet gently boxy golden head we all love. One of our favorite unique features is Rusty's white eyelashes!
