One of our priorities at Windy Knoll Goldens is to provide puppies that will be excellent, healthy, friendly companions, and pets for life. The foundation to achieving our goal is making sure the parents exhibit those qualities. As caring golden retriever breeders, we test our dogs for common golden retriever genetic points including DM, GRPRA1, GRPRA2, MD etc. and have them certified with the Orthopedic Foundation of America (OFA) or PennHip to ensure our breeding dogs and their puppies are not prone to genetic weaknesses. X-Ray tests and screens are performed when the dogs reach an appropriate age – usually 2 years old (OFA) and usually around 1 year old (PennHIP). As responsible golden retriever breeders we always research our pedigree for optimal breeding lines.
We are expecting some very dark red puppies from this paring!
We are excited about this upcoming pairing between Lady and Brad! This is a litter we’ve been really looking forward to. Brad is a vibrant dark red AKC field Golden Retriever with a lean, athletic build and the sweetest personality. He’s playful and clever, always wanting to be near us, but he also has that soft, loyal side that makes you fall in love with him. He has a wonderful balance of drive and affection. Lady is our darkest red female and such a special girl. She’s confident, active, and loves to run and play, but she’s also very people-focused and affectionate. She consistently produces beautiful puppies with great temperaments — so much so that we’ve kept one of her puppies for ourselves. From this litter, we expect rich dark red coats, athletic structure, intelligent minds, and loving, confident personalities! These puppies will make incredible companions for active loving families!
This is Lady’s first litter with George and we are looking forward to a large litter of dark red puppies with excellent personalities! There are a few openings still availalable.
This will be the darkest red litter of the season! These beautiful dark red puppies are due around Christmas time and going home around the middle of February.
Prince is a decorated Bernese Mountain show dog known best for his confirmation awards. He was imported from Poland and has excellent lines. He has the run of our entire place and visits each of our dogs and plays with our children! This is the first time Prince has bred with a Golden retriever to create a Golden Mountain Dog.
Bradford and Violet have had stunning puppies in the past and are due again around Christmas time! Their puppies will be ready for their new homes around February 20.
Pickle and Charlie’s puppies have been very popular in the past and will be born around Christmas time this year! They will go to their new homes: February 24th!
Our Lily comes from Florence and Freddy who are both amazing English Cream golden retrievers! Sammy is owned by another breeder. We used him not only because we couldn’t use Freddy, but also because he is a great English Cream golden who has a happy, friendly personality and has passed all his tests. These puppies will go home around June 15!
These puppies will be both charming and clever, and among our deepest red goldens! Only a few pre-birth reservations are left. Once the puppies are born around late October, we’ll confirm how many more are available. Reserve your spot now for Christmas puppies!

All puppies will be provided with full AKC registration (with ACA registration available), supported by comprehensive health evaluations of both parents.

Brad, our darkest red golden retriever is a real winner when it comes to personality, retreiving capabilities, and looks. He was bred as a field golden to hunt, but he also loves to chill out in between times. Ellamae is a lovely dark red sleek coated female. She is medium energy and loves to play like a puppy even though she is well past the puppy stage. The picture is of a puppy from a previous litter that she had last year!

This is a first time for both Violet & Brad. Both goldens have lovely personalities including being gentle, conscientious, calm goldens with relatively low drive. They are very good with children including toddlers, and with all other dogs. In fact, below you will see videos of Brad rolling around with puppies which makes him the greatest nanny we have. Often, he will carefully and gently climb into a pen with 3-5 week old puppies and lay down and let them crawl all over him. Violet has a lovely light blond creamy colored coat, while Brad boasts the darkest red coat out of all our goldens! Both love the water and love to retrieve. These puppies will go home on December 14th! We have one male available. The next litters will go home March of next year.
Clover, one of our darkest red goldens and Charlie, our handsome show quality golden will produce amazingly cute and smart goldens. Charlie always passes along his good looks and gentlemanly personality while Clover’s smooth, silky coat and friendly, outgoing personality makes for one of our most desirable litters of puppies. Over the years, some of these puppies have gone on to be therapy dogs because of their perfect personalities. We have one trained female available.

Daisy and George have the most “colorful” golden retrievers with cute little splashes of white. See if you can spot them! The are the smartest puppies on the block, learning things much quicker than all the other litters that we have. After one time through the doggie door, most of them figured out how to get right back in. They not only learn well, but they are also very outgoing and friendly.
All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful, The Lord God made them all. Spring time is here and our puppies are enjoying the lovely, warm mid-Maine countryside.
Lady and Charlie had their first litter with 11 puppies on March 10! Lady cares for her puppies like a pro and they are growing fat and happy very quickly. Our puppies all go through something called Bio-sensor therapy developed by the US military to promote neurological, physiological, and physical wellbeing. Besides this, they have playtime with us each day as well as with each other.
Patsy and George’s litter arrived on the first day of 2023. Talk about starting the year off right. What could you want more than 8 beautiful dark red puppies with 1 female and 7 males? Well, probably a few more females. Patsy produces such soft, cuddly, and plump puppies! George adds the little white spots on the foreheads and a splash of white on some of the paws.

George and Ellamae produce our darkest red golden retriever puppies because both parents are dark red. Both parents have been tested for many genetic weaknesses and matched based on the results. Both go through further hip testing with PennHIP which is a superior, scientific based hip test. Of course the parents’ personalities play just as much a part of our selection process. Both are friendly, confident, playful, and loving. George’s energy is a little higher than Ellamae’s who is a bit quieter and more “mature”. With that, both produce easy to train, family friendly puppies
The New Year is Here! But so is Liberty and Freddy’s new litter of adorable American Golden Retriever puppies! Liberty is doing a good job learning to be a mother!
