Welcome to Paragon Goldens!
Our goal has always been to have happy, healthy, excellent quality puppies for families to enjoy as much as we do.
Our family enjoys having puppies to play with. It is because the puppies are handled on a daily basis that they love to play and be around people. A dog's trust and love is the result.
We are located in Aiken, SC and breed AKC Golden Retrieves. We currently are breeding American Goldens and English Cream/American Goldens.
All of our dogs have genetic testing done with Embark or Paw Print Genetics.
Waiting List and Deposits
I do have a waiting list for our Golden Retriever puppies. I do not require any money to be put on the list. By being on the list it means that you would recieve a message from us when we have a litter and if you would like to place a deposit. If you don't currently want a puppy we can keep you on the list until our next litter or remove you.
Deposits can be put on a puppy once the puppy is born. People who are on our waiting list get first pick in order of when they contacted us. The deposits for the puppies are non-refundable. These deposits are part of the purchase price.
Health Contract
Our health contract is for the puppy to be free of communicable disease for 3 day period from date of sale and untreatable /life-threatening congenital defects until the puppy turns one year old.
Returning your Puppy
Every once in a while I have someone who needs to return a puppy because of family issues or other reasons. It is completely up to the breeder as to whether or not they will take the puppy back and give a refund. If you need to return the puppy we require that all health records be included.
What to Expect When You Get Your Puppy
The puppies are ready to go when they reach about eight weeks of age.
They will be de-wormed at two, four, and six weeks with Pyrantel Pamote. At eight weeks they will have a three day deworming with Safeguard. The puppies will get their first puppy shot at about seven weeks old.
My puppies come with a puppy bag upon purchase.
It contains:
- AKC Papers (Limited or Full)
- Shot/Health Record
- Health Contract/Puppy Purchase Agreement
- Sample of Diamond Puppy food
- Blanket
- Toy
Getting Your Puppy
We do not fly our puppies at this time, ground transport is available. Compensation for transportation can be discussed in advance.
The easiest way is to come to our home and get your new puppy and meet the mom and dad. However, I would be happy to drive the puppy to an easier location for you.
