Sunshine Acres, an Indiana Field Golden Breeder
Bringing a puppy into your life is a time of excitement and joy mixed with a little apprehension of knowing the work a new puppy requires. As experienced AKC Golden Retriever breeders, attention to detail, breeding based on science and love of the Golden has always been our priority. We do everything we can to promote the long term welfare and superior health of our Golden puppies and their parents. We are happy to be a resource for you as you prepare for the big day of your puppy’s homecoming.
What are our Golden Retriever puppies like? We specialize in the field Golden type of AKC Golden Retrievers, due to their superior health compared to the show type of Golden Retrievers. Our field Golden lines of Golden Retrievers have lighter frames and smaller adult size than show Goldens. A male can be expected to grow to 55-75 pounds, with the females being about 10 pounds smaller. Also, field Goldens are less prone to hip and joint problems than the show lines of Golden Retrievers. They are typically darker in color with shades from dark red to golden. With beautiful silky coats, our field Goldens have shorter hair than show Goldens and do not shed as much, which we love!
Field Goldens are the type of Golden that is most similar to the original Golden Retrievers developed by Lord Tweedmouth in the 1800’s. These original Goldens were bred as hunting dogs, water retrievers and an outdoor companion. They have amazing trainability and intelligence and are extremely devoted to their human companions. Athletic, active and fun loving, they would not do well left alone for long periods of time, since they love companionship.
Our puppies parents are from lines with many titled field Goldens in their pedidgree. When Sunshine Acres began, 20 years ago, we purchased our first two field Golden Retriever puppies from Topbrass, Jackie Mertens kennel of amazing field Golden Retrievers. For over 50 years, Jackie Mertens’ “Topbrass” has been the dominant name in field-bred golden retrievers, and Topbrass lines run strong in our Golden parents here at Sunshine Acres.
Lucy, the dame of the above litter of puppies, has an amazing pedigree with many AKC Field Champions in her pedigree. From Otterness’ Thunderstruck Retrievers near Alexandria, Minnesota, Lucy’s sire is Thunderstruck Like None Otter QA2 MH WCX OS and her Dame is Heads Up Youve Been Thundrstrk SH WCX.
Our Golden Retrievers can thrive in an active household as a running buddy, hiking partner, or in any outdoor activity their family enjoys. They also can also be content with the exercise they get in the back yard, with a family that is less active as well. Our Golden Retriever puppies are well suited for therapy work, service work, as hunting dogs or just their family’s BFF (Best Furry Friend).
Our Golden Retrievers love the companionship of their new families. Our field Golden Retriever puppies for sale have been raised with children from toddler to adult age and love them! Over the years, our Golden puppies have filled a very special role in our family. Always there with love to give, our puppies are a wonderful friend for our children, and we have found that love to be mutual.
