TOP GUN GOLDEN RETRIEVERS
Where Ethical Breeding Meets Expert Training.
Meet Our Dogs
Welcome to Top Gun Golden Retrievers! Meet our crew! We love them and are sure you will too!
Meet Royal (Retired)
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 (Retired)
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
Goose is a truly unique and one of a kind golden retriever. He is a calm couch potato 98% of the time. The other 2% he reserves for his zoomies when I return from a long trip. This boy is the sweet, cuddly, gentle, kind, confident, happy, and obsessed with me. If I get up, he gets up, if I need a snack, he needs a snack, and if I need to pee, he thankfully doesn't pee with me, he goes outside.
Goose has had several litters and those puppies range in age. His oldest puppies are officially into their adult era. He has created some incredible puppies. All of his puppies love people, kids, dogs, and other animals. All of them have his sweet, goofy, gentle personality. Some are as calm as he is and others have more energy and drive than he has. Im proud to say he has 5 active service dogs that excelled in service training and an additional 6 in service programs. His puppies are smart, people driven and food driven, excellent therapy candidates, excellent service candidates, and they are truly gorgeous as adults.
Anyone who meets Goose knows how unique and special he is. That is exactly why he is the corner of our program.
We do not recommend any of our clients or potential clients to reach out to Goose's breeder. She has proven to be dishonest and unethical. We truly believe in only supporting breeders who share the same values and ethics we do.

Meet Sassy
Sassy is from an incredible breeder, Lish Kennels in Idaho is truly outstanding! She believes in bettering the breed through sport and competition. Sassy's father is the famous Scotch, who is killing it in sporting events. Even earning a Senior Hunt title. With that being said, Sassy is the most unique dog in my program. Sassy is a true field bred retriever. So she is high energy, high drive, high level of patience while working, an excellent duck hunting partner, and a truly loved family pet. Sassy lives with my best friend on this earth and her beautiful family. Her husband even takes her on his month long duck hunting trip each year. She is an incredibly intelligent dog. We dearly love Sassy! We are blessed to have her from Lish.
Sassy completed her health testing in 2025. Here are her results: https://ofa.org/advanced-search/?appnum=2661689
