2024 Fall/Winter Litter
Planned Litter UPDATE!
UPDATE FEBRUARY 2024. Piper just finished her heat cycle following her 2023 litter, which places her next heat cycle for breeding sometime in late July or August.

We have already begun planning for the next litter and will be working once again with TalkAbout Retrievers and their handsome sire, Ledger, aka Master's Why So Serious.

Sire: Master's Why So Serious
AKC SR98771901
Ledger was born May 3, 2017 in Arizona. He came to TalkAbout Retrievers at 8 months old and quickly captured their hearts. He is easy going and gentle with children and the elderly, yet loves to perform and has a great field drive. He is very birdy and watery and will never turn down the opportunity to go for a swim or get you play with him. His temperament is that great blend you hope to find when you are looking for a family dog that loves field work.
Ledger has a beautiful thick dark golden coat, deep chest and nice rear angles. He has a smooth topline, proper bite alignment and a very kind expression. He weighs around 70-75 lbs and stands approximately 24" tall.
Like Piper, Ledger scored Excellent on his OFA Hip tests and is clear of all common genetic issues that Goldens tend to have.
Dam: Piper Joy Davies
AKC SS08511505
Piper is the furry kid in our family. She was whelped in the rural hill country, just west of San Antonio, by a private family on November 8th, 2018. She has a playful, friendly personality and that well-known sweet "golden" temperament. Her coat is exceptionally soft with lovely rich dark golden tones. The only thing she loves more than cuddling is to trick you into playing ball with her. And with Piper, there is no bad time to play ball. Sun, rain, snow, and even in thunderstorms - she is always ready to give you the ball so you will throw it just one more time.
Piper is clear of all common genetic issues that Goldens tend to have and her results are publically available on the OFA website. She also received the rating of "Excellent" on her hips from the OFA. Only about 8% of all OFA hip x-rays on Golden Retrievers receive a score of excellent.
HEALTH CLEARANCES
Our goal is to provide you with a healthy puppy that will be a blessing for your family for years to come. Below are the links for the OFA health clearances for both sire and dam.
