Top Gun Golden Retrievers Breeding Program
Meet Our Dogs
Welcome to Top Gun Golden Retrievers! Meet our crew! We love them and are sure you will too!
Meet Royal
This beautiful girl is Royal! Royal is so kind, sweet, smart, gentle, and perfect in every way. Royal gave us two incredible litters of puppies. (As of 3/23/25) There are 5 pups from her first litter in active service programs and all 12 from her first litter were able to start therapy work at 8 weeks old. Annie is just one of her daughter's and is living with an amazing young woman who is helping Annie to become a service dog. Katie is another daughter (Now named Josie) who is part of a breeding program in Montana. Both girls are going to change the next generation of golden retrievers. I am so thankful for Royal and we love that she gets to live an amazing life retired and happy.

Meet Phoenix
Meet Phoenix – Our Stunning Dark Red Girl!
We are absolutely in love with Phoenix! This gorgeous red beauty has captured our hearts with her sweet nature, boundless energy, and incredible intelligence. She is, without a doubt, the sweetest red golden we’ve ever had the pleasure of owning.
Phoenix has a higher energy level compared to our other goldens—but with that comes an exceptional work drive and motivation that makes her truly stand out. We believe she will produce amazing working golden retrievers and excellent service dog prospects.
To create the ideal balance in her puppies, we plan to pair Phoenix with a stud who has a calmer, more easygoing temperament. We’re confident this pairing will result in pups with the perfect blend of drive, intelligence, and gentleness.
Phoenix is not only smart and affectionate—she’s also incredibly cuddly, wonderful with children, and amazing with other puppies. We feel so lucky to have her as part of our program.

Meet Goose
Meet Goose – Our Gentle, Golden-Hearted Stud
This handsome guy is Goose! We found Goose through Sunshine Mountain Retrievers a few years ago, and we’re endlessly thankful to have met both Sam and Goose. He has been such a blessing to our program and our hearts.
Goose is a half-brother to our girls, Katie and Annie. His sire, Payson, owned by Sam, is also the incredible stud we used for Royal’s 2024 and 2025 litter. Goose carries all the traits we strive for in our breeding program:
🧠 Intelligence
💛 Gentle temperament
🧘♂️ Exceptionally calm nature
He’s truly the calmest, kindest, and smartest male we’ve ever owned. Goose adores children and puppies alike, and his low-energy, easygoing personality makes him a perfect fit for service and therapy dog lines.
Goose has sired multiple litters for Top Gun and we are now ready to allow other programs to use him as their stud. Please reach out if you are interested in using Goose as a stud for your next litter. He truly is one of a kind. We are so thankful to have him in our program.

Meet Sassy
Meet Sassy – Our Spunky, Happy Girl!
This stunning girl is Sassy, and her name couldn’t be more fitting! She is full of life, laughter, and just the right amount of sass. We are beyond blessed to have her in our program—and even more blessed by the incredible guardian family she lives with.
Sassy is lovingly cared for by Stacy, Donny, Charlotte, and Elizabeth—a truly amazing family who goes above and beyond to give her the best life possible. Their love, time, and dedication to Sassy are everything we could hope for, and we are so thankful for them.
Sassy will turn two in September 2025, and we plan to begin her breeding journey later next year. She is higher energy with a bold, brave, and hilarious personality—and we cannot wait to see these wonderful traits shine through in her future puppies.
Once Sassy passes all of her official breeding exams, we’ll update her profile with more information. We’re so excited for what the future holds for this sweet and spunky girl!
Meet Brenlee
Brenlee is our sweet, snow-white English Cream Golden Retriever with a heart as soft as her coat. She’s the kind of dog who instantly melts into you the moment you sit down — gentle, affectionate, and endlessly patient. Brenlee has that classic “old soul” golden temperament: calm indoors, polite with everyone she meets, and happiest when she’s curled up at your feet or quietly following you from room to room.
She comes from remarkable, fully health-tested lines and is a full sibling to our stud, Goose — widely known for being the calmest, most laid-back golden we’ve ever met. That same softness runs strong in Brenlee. She has a nurturing, maternal personality, making her an exceptional mother and an amazing example of the English Cream temperament.
Brenlee is excellent with children, friendly with other animals, and has a naturally low-energy, therapy-dog-leaning disposition. Whether she’s greeting visitors, lounging in the sunshine, or raising her puppies with gentle confidence, Brenlee is the definition of a calm, kind, dependable golden.
She produces puppies that are:
• Extremely mellow and gentle
• Very people-oriented
• Easy to train
• Soft, cuddly, and sensitive
• Ideal for families, therapy-dog work, or quiet homes
Brenlee is truly one of the sweetest dogs in our program — a peaceful, loving presence and a joy to have in our family.
