Eden Kennels Home of multi-purpose Golden Retriever's Eden is a home-based, Canadian Kennel Club registered, Golden Retriever kennel located 1/2 hour south of North Bay, in the Nipissing / Parry Sound, Ontario district. I have been active in the breed since 1998 and am a member in good standing with The Canadian Kennel Club and The Golden Retriever Club of Canada. I have also served for a number of years on the Board of The Nipissing Kennel Club as Training Director. As the Golden Retriever was originally bred to be a sporting dog, We strongly believe today's Goldens should still maintain this working ability. To ensure our lines retain the proper Golden Retriever characteristics I actively participate in Conformation, Obedience, Hunt Tests and Tracking with all the dogs.
At Eden our purebred Golden Retriever puppies are a blend of Canadian, United Kingdom and American lines. Puppies will range in color from light to dark gold. To ensure we are producing high-quality purebred puppies we use carefully selected, physically and temperamentally sound parents, which are health certified. We take great pride in that all our puppies are raised in our home with attention to detail! When our puppies are whelped they are raised in a quiet, comfortable room until their eyes and ears open. We then move the puppies to the Kitchen so they may fully experience the hustle and bustle of everyday family life. At this time visitation starts in order to build up the puppies life skills and socialization skills. All our puppies are Canadian Kennel Club registered on a non-breeding contract, micro-chipped, and Vet-examined with their first vaccinations. We provide a puppy package which includes: a 2 year written health guarantee, 6 weeks of PetPlan puppy insurance up to $750.00, feeding instructions as well as health care and training information.
When raising our puppies we follow... The Rule of Sevens -- By the time a puppy is 7 weeks old, it should have: 1. Been on 7 different surfaces: carpet, concrete, wood, vinyl, grass, dirt, gravel, woodchips, etc… 2. Played with 7 different types of objects: big balls, small balls, soft fabric toys, fuzzy toys, squeaky toys, paper or cardboard items, metal items, wooden items, milk jugs, etc… 3. Been in 7 different locations: front yard, back yard, basement, kitchen, car, garage, laundry room, bathroom, crate, kennel, etc.... 4. Met and played with 7 new people: include children and older adults. 5.

After several years of trial and error we have finally found a food we are pleased with enough to comfortably recommend. ********* If you wish further information about how we raise our puppies or if you wish to have your name added to our reservation list for a puppy from a future litter, you may contact us either by phone (705) 723-1604 or by email belle@efni.com (please include some information about yourself and what qualities you are looking for in a puppy. As it is important to us that puppies are purchased from reputable breeders and since we do not like to maintain a large waiting list for lengthy periods of time, if at the time you are looking and we have no puppies available or if we find you are to far out of our district for one of our puppies we would be more then happy to assist you in finding another reputable breeder in your area.   *********   Please be advised; we do not air ship our puppies, all our puppies are sold on a CKC non-breeding agreement, we reserve the right to return all deposits and refuse to sell a puppy to any home we deem unsuitable at any time for any reason.     Please don't forget to tell us a little about yourself & what you are looking for in your puppy.

EDEN:any place of complete bliss, delight and peace Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring — it was peace. Milan Kundera
