Our Golden Retrievers
Golden Ladies
All our breeding dogs at Kiteroa undergo extensive breed testing (health screening) prior to being included in our breeding program. We proudly provide electronic copies of all these documents to all new puppy owners, and hard copies to all new owners on pickup day. These hard copies are part of the extensive puppy pack sent home with new owners and can be shared with your veterinarian and other interested parties.
Please be mindful that, despite careful health screening of all dogs in our breeding program, there is a risk of these conditions occurring in our puppies; however, this is not a guarantee.
Many of these conditions can also develop due to other external factors such as being overweight, poor diet and too much or too little exercise. So not only is it very important to firstly buy a puppy from a registered breeder who can provide evidence of the health screens of all their dogs, but also to raise your puppy carefully to ensure a long and healthy life.
Winnie and Ziggy are litter sisters, and both have exactly the same test results.
