FirstBarkBeing new to the breed of Golden Retrievers, I contacted Coltor at Castle House Kennels. He always made time for me and my list of questions. He explained the breed standards and some of the things to look out for. Standup guy with a lot of knowledge and know how.

Mr. Thompson was extremely helpful in explaining a training timeline and really walked me through what it takes to train a pup to become a hunting dog. I am new to training dogs for hunting and he gave me good tips and helped me having a better understanding of what way I should go about training my puppy. Training her myself vs sending my dog away to a trainer and explaining the pros and cons of both. I highly recommend him!!
Colter is a great guy and very caring and wants the best for your dog. He did well with our Golden, Brady, and always took the time to talk with us and answer any questions or concerns we had. He always spent the full time with Brady and training him.
Remy is a beautiful dog! Castle House Retrievers is great for breeding, buying or training your dog. I have raised Golden Retrievers for 20+ years and they are true professionals that care about their dogs. I highly recommend them.
