I'm the breeder behind Richwood Golden Retrievers located in Morriston, FL. Richwood is a very small, select preservation breeding program. I have produced champions in 4 venues, and I'm an AKC bronze breeder of merit. I have high expectations for my puppies and make sure to place each one with an enriching and loving family complementary to their personality and ability.
About Kristin
I breed multi-purpose Goldens that can excel in a variety of roles, including field, show, therapy, service, and as working dogs. My dogs work hard, play hard, love hard, and are part of the family. I prepare all of my pups to excel in life.
What makes Kristin’s program special
My foundation bitch is the leading producer of Dual Dog Hall of Fame offspring in breed history. She produced three litters of fifteen puppies and eight champions in four different venues. My program is small, and I am dedicated to always having responsible policies and promoting proper breeding practices.
Kristin is a member of 5 clubs
Jacksonville Retriever club, Mid-Florida Golden Retriever Club, Florida Gulf Coast Golden Retriever Club, Hunting Retriever Club, Golden Retriever Club of America

It's essential for young puppies to be socialized with a wide range of stimuli as they grow in order to ensure proper development. During this critical stage of their lives, I introduce my pups to a variety of new experiences for this purpose. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Avidog, Basic Manners, Initial Crate Training, Initial House Training, Noise Desensitization, Household Desensitization, Various Surfaces, Socialized with People, Socialized with Adult Dogs, and Socialized with Other Animals.
All of my puppies are given the proper care so that they are healthy when they leave for their forever homes.
We send our puppies home with Microchip.
