Gorgeous Golden Retrievers

Feeding our dogs is paramount to choose premium dog food that is suitable for their age and breeding position. Our dogs are regularly as per Vet advice- wormed and flea treated. Our dogs are vaccinated, registered with our local council and each dog is microchipped.

We love taking our dogs out for one on one time into our community. They love the car and look forward to going out and about to meet people and enjoy their time with us.

Busy fieldline Golden Retrievers are now out of our breeding line so we can provide you with the expected gentle and graceful, fun and joyful as well as kind and endearing Golden you are looking for. Working lines of dog (fieldline Retrievers) are very busy and require large spaces and extra activity. Your Bellawai Golden Retreiver will still be a great companion for an active family without the extreme high energy of a fieldline. Fieldline heritage is typically from Canada and are the slender type with less feathers and a copper gold coat.

If you would like to know more about our breeding program for Poppy, Willow, Joy, Lily, Timotheus and Finnegan please feel free to contact us.
