Growing up in Virginia, my neighbors' golden retriever left an indelible mark on my heart, making these gentle companions a lifelong dream. The pursuit of education took me to southern Utah in 2017, and in 2021, I welcomed Violet, my first golden retriever, into my life. Her infectious joy and affection immediately captured my heart, forging an unbreakable bond.

As time unfolded and adventures multiplied, my love for golden retrievers deepened, leading me to welcome Pepper, a second pup, into my life. Daily walks and weekend escapades have become cherished routines, filling my days with nothing but happiness and joy. Gratitude fills my heart for the positivity and love these golden companions have brought into my life.

Inspired by their boundless affection, I've made it my mission to share this joy with others. Since 2021, my commitment has grown to providing exceptionally healthy, loving, and intelligent dogs. My aim is simple: to enable more people to experience the transformative love and joy that golden retrievers have brought into my life. Thus founding Bristlecone Retrievers.
