Our Story
A legacy of love and purpose.
Platinum Goldens was founded on a simple belief: Golden Retrievers deserve to be raised with intention, love, and lifelong responsibility. What began with one cherished dog grew into a carefully guided, family-run breeding program dedicated to doing things the right way & always putting our dogs first.
Hi, I'm Blair.
The face behind Platinum Goldens.
In 2016, my husband Steven, and I began raising and breeding show-quality AKC Golden Retrievers with a focus on health, temperament, and true Golden spirit. What started as a shared passion quickly became a family calling.
In 2024, we relocated to our dream property — a beautiful 40-acre farm in Lakeville, Massachusetts. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle, our family farm has become our own little hidden piece of paradise.
Life here is full and joyful. Between football practice, drama club, homework, and family dinners, there’s never a dull moment with our two kids. And when the day finally slows down, you’ll often find me lounging on the front porch, surrounded by a few dopey Goldens.
They truly are the heart of our home — loyal, gentle, and full of love. Every day they remind us why we do what we do.
Because honestly… who doesn’t love a Golden?
A FAMILY-RUN BEGINNING
Our dogs are not kennel-raised. They live inside our home, grow alongside our family, and are part of our everyday routines. From the very beginning, our puppies are nurtured in a calm, loving environment filled with connection, structure, and real-life experiences.
This home-based approach allows us to truly know each puppy and thoughtfully match them with the families they’re meant for.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
At Platinum Goldens, we believe quality matters more than quantity.
We are committed to:
-
Responsible, health-focused breeding
-
Raising confident, well-socialized puppies
-
Transparency, education, and trust
-
A lifelong commitment to every dog we produce
These values guide every decision we make—before, during, and long after a puppy goes home.
HEALTH, CARE & RESPONSIBILITY
Our breeding dogs are carefully selected and health tested, and our puppies are raised with the same care and standards we expect from their future families. Our application process, puppy contract, and visitation policies are all designed to protect the well-being of our dogs and ensure the best possible outcomes for every puppy.
A LIFELONG CONNECTION
Our relationship with our families doesn’t end on pickup day. We remain a trusted resource and maintain a lifelong commitment to every Platinum Goldens puppy, including breeder support and first right of refusal.
When you join Platinum Goldens, you become part of our extended family—always.
