Without compromising the temperament that makes up a true family member and companion, Eastshore Golden Retrievers is dedicated to raising dogs that can compete in all areas of dog sports; conformation, agility, obedience, tracking or field work. Our lines are a blend of American and European pedigrees and our goal is to breed and raise dogs sound in body and spirit. Our dogs are fed a raw diet and we follow a low vaccine protocol.  We do not believe in breeding dogs that "must" have a job to do. We feel Goldens should be great at any sport their owners enjoy, but also be just as successful as a friend or companion. Our dogs live in the house with us as family members. They enjoy days filled with hikes through the woods and fields, swimming in the river, joining us at work, and relishing in quiet nights cuddling on the couch. We feel priveleged to share our lives with this family of dogs and are grateful every day for the gift of friendship and love they give us.
