Here at Legend Lake Golden Retrievers we usually keep several puppies, we keep them for a couple reasons: as replacement sires or dams, show prospects, or to start for others to enjoy. We think people should have the opportunity to purchase a puppy which has been worked with and started.

Our “Jumpstart” puppies are usually between 3-10 months of age when they go to their new home. They have been well socialized, started on housebreaking, started on crate training, and have been started in basic obedience training. We take them on walks in the field, introducing them to different terrain and to work on coming when called. They are started on puppy obedience, sit, heel, stay, and down. They know the word “No”, for occasions in which they may grab something in the house, such as a shoe or other item we don’t want them playing with. They are taught to sit before eating, and are accustom to us putting our hand in and around them, while they are eating their food.
