I'm the breeder behind Windcliff Goldens located in Lake City, MN. We are a selective breeding program, including the health testing of parents. We also focus on temperament and the overall well-being of our dogs. We breed to produce happy and healthy puppies that can continue to thrive in their forever homes.
About Brianna and Tony
I live in SE Minnesota with my husband and 3 kids.
What makes Brianna and Tony’s program special
We want to set our puppies and our families up for success. To accomplish this we follow "Puppy Culture". We do Early Neurological Stimulation in days 3-16 and from there do many sound and sensory activities to provide as much early experiences as possible. The puppies are raised in our family home and handled by our family members including the children.
Brianna and Tony is a member of a club
Golden Retriever Club of America

Brianna and Tony may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Brianna and Tony offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out to Brianna and Tony directly.
I follow "Puppy Culture" so we do work on Early Neurological Stimulation from days 3-16 of their life. IN the remainder of the weeks we work heavily on socialization including startle reflexes (vacuuming, dropping of pots/pans, thunderstorm sounds, etc.) and sensory activities. I have 3 young children so they have a lot of handing and exposure at even a young age. We start crate and introducing potty training at around 6 weeks of age. My hopes with all of this is to set the puppies and their families up for success.
Puppies will receive deworming, first set of shots, vet check and a 26 month health guarantee.
We send our puppies home with Sound and texture enrichment, Early Neurological Stimulation, Vaccinations, Microchip, Food Starter Bag, AKC Registration, and Blanket with Mom's Scent.
Brianna and Tony offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
