What We Believe In
✺ ✧ ✺ The Golden Touch Philosophy Where Heart, Heritage & PAWS™ Come Together ✺ ✧ ✺
Welcome to Golden Touch — a place where exceptional breeding, intentional training, and the PAWS™ philosophy come together to create lifelong dog–human partnerships rooted in connection, calm, and confidence.
​
We pride ourselves on having a highly selective, carefully planned breeding program. Every foundation dog and cat in our home comes from distinguished European lines known for health, structure, temperament, and beauty. Our breeding animals — both English Cream Golden Retrievers and Welsh Springer Spaniels — are imported directly from respected programs across Europe and hand-selected with extraordinary care.
​
At Golden Touch, we raise dogs who embody sweet, stable temperaments, emotional steadiness, genetic soundness, breed-standard structure, excellent orthopedic health, and a natural desire to connect with their humans.
​
All breeding dogs are health tested — including DNA panels for genetic diseases and OFA or PennHip evaluations. Only dogs who meet our highest standards become part of the Golden Touch legacy.
Why Our Dogs?
✺Why We Chose English Cream Golden Retrievers and Welsh Springer Spaniels: Breeds Defined by Heart, Harmony & Intelligence
​
English Cream Golden Retrievers (European Lines)
We chose European Goldens for their healthier genetics, calm and confident personalities, intelligence, willingness to please, gentle nature, emotional attunement, excellent family compatibility, high trainability, and service/therapy potential.
​
Welsh Springer Spaniels
Our Welshies represent the best of this historic breed — deeply loyal, sensitive, affectionate, and intuitive. They are intelligent, responsive, steady, gentle, great with families, and well suited for service & therapy work, sporting homes, and active lifestyles. Their beautiful red-and-white coats and joyful working spirit make them exceptional companions.
​
✺ Wellness, Nutrition & Ethical Care
Our kennel is family-run, and every dog is raised with space, enrichment, and abundant love. We feed only high-quality, Non-GMO, soy-free food and supplement with raw meats, eggs, vitamins, minerals, and joint/bone support.
​
All puppies come with a health guarantee against genetic defects, provided you continue feeding the recommended diet and supplements.
​
✺ Early Training & Development
Every puppy receives Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), Early Scent Introduction (ESI), daily handling, confidence-building exercises, and emotional-stability work. These practices create puppies who are confident, adaptable, and balanced — the ideal foundation for family life or advanced training.
​
✺ PAWS™ Philosophy
Presence • Awareness • Wisdom • Structure
​
Presence — Calm, steady leadership
Awareness — Understanding your dog’s needs and signals
Wisdom — Responding with intention, not impulse
Structure — Routines, boundaries, and consistency that build trust
This philosophy shapes every moment of your puppy’s early development, creating emotionally attuned and connected companions.
