Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Freedom Retrievers located in Blaine, WA. We offer top-quality goldens, ready to train for service and support or to be your next family member. Our dogs are bred for health and temperament. We begin loving and training before birth by caring for mom. Our littles undergo intentional interactions and stimuli to prepare them for new homes.

Tami’s experience

  • About Tami

    I am currently working as the CEO of our home, which is the best job ever. I am a mom, wife, dog mom, chicken mom, and soon-to-be grandma. We are blessed to live in Blaine, WA, on our Freedom Place farm with lots of room for family, friends, and fur babies. I love spending time in our yard, the garden, and out in the forest, walking the dogs.

  • What makes Tami’s program special

    Our puppies are loved and handled daily. They receive exceptional care, beginning well before birth, through the nurturing of their mom. We love on and care for those little bodies from birth, right till the day they come to live in your home, and beyond. As part of the Freedom Family, we will be available to answer questions that arise as these puppies wiggle and kiss their way into your hearts.

More about Tami

  • Why Tami started breeding

    I recently got back into breeding with these beautiful English Creams. I finally felt like I had the place and space to do it well, and give my dogs space to run and play. I want to provide healthy, happy, and well-adjusted puppies to families prepared to invest both the quality time to provide a loving forever home and the finances required of a dog.
