We are not taking any new reservations at the moment, we are fully booked until 2024.
From a young age I have been passionate about dogs, more specifically Golden Retrievers.
Being a breeder is above all a privilege, a passion. The human-animal bond comforts me enormously, especially since their love is unconditional. By its own characteristics, the Rustic Golden Retriever meets my expectations of an animal companion: playful, devoted and accomplished worker.
Diane Archambault started the line about 13 years ago. Diane knew through various couplings to bring to the lines Lafadi an increased health, an excellent heredity in relation to the diseases relating to this breed, and extraordinary temperaments. I take this beautiful line with pride having the same goals as Diane.
More and more people wanting to work with their dog are asking me, whether for pet therapy, agility, obedience work, scent tracking, long jump in water, and of course, for hunting. .
I am therefore proud to invite you to this site and who knows, maybe we will share the same passion?
What attracted me to Marley was both his fearless and reserved side. He needs as much to be given love as he needs to move freely in the forest. Son of Chili, we find in him the kindness of his mother. He also has the same habit as his mother of hiding his food or toys in the ground, imagining(!) that the other dogs will not find them…
