Picking Up Your Puppy:

  • No puppies will be chosen until they are over 8 weeks of age and have been vaccinated and checked by our veterinarian for heart defects twice. Waiting until 8 weeks provides our puppy families with a better picture of their personality and ensures a better match for our puppies and families.

  • The balance of payment is due when you pick up your puppy.

  • Families can arrange to visit puppies from birth through 8 weeks of age at the availability of Composer Goldens.

  • We temperament test and go over puppy conformation. We are available to help families make the best choice for them. We do not choose for our families.
