Available Golden Retriever Puppies

Below are our available Golden Retriever puppies and upcoming litters. Our information is updated as adoptions and reservations are made. At times, we will have litters with prior reservations for our Supporting Partners, who will be training their puppies for service and therapy work. Each puppy in our program is raised using The Imprint™, a specialized imprinting and puppy enrichment program. 

Quality Golden Retriever puppies from reputable programs have genetically-screened breeding adults. These sires and dams have health clearances and strong pedigrees with established, proven lines. Prices for puppies in these programs may range from $2500-5000. Please contact us to inquire about our adoption fees. We are located in northeast Iowa, near Minnesota and Wisconsin.

​Trained Golden Retriever Puppies and Young Adults

Our Gold Select training program is available for families adopting Snitker Golden puppies. As part of their training, Gold Select Puppies earn their AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy distinction and Gold Select Young Adults earn their Canine Good Citizenship title.

Each season, a limited number of spaces are available for adopting families. Snitker Goldens may also reserve one or two pups showing an aptitude for therapy work, who will then be taken through this program.

Please visit our Gold Select page for more information.

Snitker Goldens is my number one choice of breeders of Golden Retrievers.  This family-run small business has the right complement of skills, ethics, and temperament to breed and raise Goldens that will stand out in a crowd - whether as the family pet or a valuable service dog for a disabled individual/veteran.  Snitker Goldens has created the ideal environment in their breeding facility that is rich in stimulus for the newly-born puppies through seven/eight weeks of age.  Rhonda and her team know how and when to introduce the puppies to new experiences and environments while providing lots of tender loving care and ensuring the puppies and their mothers are fit and healthy.  Snitker Goldens’ puppies receive a solid foundation for growth into solid, beautiful Goldens.”
