How You Can Help!
  • If you’ve ever held a Golden puppy, shared a special Golden moment, gone for a walk with your Golden companion, been touched by a sweet sugar faced Golden oldie, you should be a GRF supporter!

  • As a breeder, consider donating a certain amount per puppy sold, per stud fee, per show or performance test win.
