Introducing
Sunbuilt Retrievers

Litter planned for Summer 2025

Get Ready for Tail Wags, Cuddles, and the Perfect Family Dog or Service Dog Prospect! Sunbuilt's Golden Retriever Litters Coming This Summer!

​

We are thrilled to announce the upcoming plans for a well-bred Golden Retriever litter this summer, and we couldn’t be more excited to share this journey with you! Whether you’re looking for a companion dog, a well-bred pre-socialized puppy, or a future service dog prospect, our Goldens are the perfect choice.

​

Why Our Golden Retrievers Are the Ideal Choice for Families and Individuals with Disabilities

​

Our Golden Retriever parents are exceptional examples of the breed. Not only are they stunningly beautiful and gentle, but they also have the sweetest personalities you could ever hope for. With medium energy, a calm demeanor, and a deep capacity for intelligence and affection, they make perfect companions for families, individuals with disabilities, and anyone in need of a service dog prospect. Our line comes from the Assistance Dogs International American Breeding Cooperative out of Power Paws Assistance Dogs  "Duchess" a retired service dog paired with Captivate's exceptional stud Grand Champion Bronze "Berkley." We have plans to breed both "Judee" and full sister "Allya" this year. We have upcoming breeding prospects that will be tested this year as well. We will be testing our Labrador prospect "Reina" in the coming months. All of our dogs are or will be fully OFA and genetic health tested prior to breeding.

​

Sunbuilt Retrievers known for their gentle nature, loyalty, and intuitive temperament, excel in assistance dog roles like PTSD Service Dogs, Diabetic Alert Dogs, Mobility Dogs, Medical Alert and therapy dogs, or Facility Dogs. Our line has been purpose bred for service work for many generations and we have a proven and considerably high success rate due to good genetics and puppy raising from a Certified Professional Dog Trainer - Knowledge and Skills Assessed. Our puppies are bred with a focus on health, temperament, and trainability, ensuring that they have all the qualities needed to become your future service dog or a loving addition to your home.

​

A Foundation for Success: Early Socialization and Pre-Training

​

Our puppies get a head start from day one! Each one receives early socialization in a safe, loving, and controlled environment, ensuring they are comfortable in a variety of settings. For individuals with disabilities, we offer the perfect opportunity to get a puppy that is already exposed to different people, environments, and even other animals, making it easier for you to integrate them into your daily life. We begin with Early Neurological Stimulation, Early Scent Introduction and Scent Imprinting, and follow the Puppy Culture and AVIDOG Transformational Puppy Program all directed hands on by Sammye Darling, CPDT-KSA. Additionally, we offer pre-training for families or individuals looking for a dog that is already well-versed in essential skills such as crate training, potty training, basic obedience, leash manners, and house training. With our positive reinforcement methods, your puppy will be well-prepared to begin formal service dog training upon maturity or simply transition into your home as a well-behaved family member.

​

Tailored for Service Dogs

​

If you are looking for a future service dog, we take great care to breed puppies with the right mix of intelligence, temperament, and work ethic to thrive in service roles. Our experience in raising and training service dog prospects since 2011 ensures that these puppies will be carefully nurtured and trained to meet the high standards needed for service dog work. Each puppy will receive a solid foundation in socialization, making them prime candidates for service dog training down the road. We temperament test our puppies at 7 weeks old using the Volhard Puppy Aptitude test with outside professional trainers hosted in an unfamiliar area.  We match your puppy to you based on your lifestyle, wants and needs!
