Hearts O' Gold

Welcome to Hearts O' Gold!
We hope you enjoy your visit with us as you find out more about our "family"!
We are located in North Central Florida in beautiful Ocala, the "Horse Capital of the World"!
We are the home of exquisite English Cream Golden Retrievers from excellent Champion lines! We specialize in breeding beautiful, healthy puppies with great temperaments. We have been breeding Golden Retrievers for about 18 years.
We started out breeding the American Golden and then about 14 years ago I saw my first English Cream. I was in awe of this beautiful dog! Shortly after that I got my first English Cream, Dakota, from Australia. Our original breeding dogs were imported from Australia, The Netherlands, and Slovakia, so they have very diversified backgrounds. There are many families who have come back and gotten multiple puppies from us over the years. We've donated several of our puppies to 2 awesome organizations in Tampa, FL., "Kids and Canines" (they use at-risk teens to train service dogs) and "K9 Can" (who uses incarcerated teens to train therapy dogs). Not only does it greatly benefit the recipient of the dogs, but it is life-changing for the teens involved in the program. Most recently we've donated a puppy to K9's for Warriors. There is no other breed in the world who is better suited to service and therapy work than the Golden Retriever. They are one of the worlds most perfect "family" dogs....loving, loyal, intelligent, eager to please. But it doesn't stop there! They have excellent athletic abilities, as well, and excel at sporting events, agility, flyball, etc. If obedience events are your thing....you can't go wrong with a Golden either! :)
