Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Oakleaf Goldens located in Darlington County, SC. I am an ethical, home-based hobby breeder of high-quality Golden Retrievers. I produce pups that will continue to excel in their chosen field, whether that be working, showing, or as an active companion. My priority is to ensure the health and well-being of all my dogs from birth until they leave with their forever family and beyond. I look forward to connecting with you!

Deborah’s experience

  • About Deborah

    My dogs are members of my family first and foremost. I offer top-quality Golden Retriever puppies from my loving home to yours! I am a proud member of the Golden Retriever Club of America. In my free time, I enjoy participating in the show ring with my beloved Goldens and bringing home titles!

  • What makes Deborah’s program special

    My dogs work hard, play hard, love hard, and are part of the family. I look to produce outstanding puppies that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive, and have wonderful temperaments. I do not produce a litter unless my dogs are fully healthy, happy, and excellent representations of their breed -- my involvement in the show world speaks to the standards that I breed my dogs by. I can provide extensive knowledge and guidance for any family looking to bring home one of these wonderful dogs!
