As long as you care and let me be by your side,
I'll be your companion, your friend, and your guide.
I'm loyal to you on your good and bad days.
No matter your mood, I'm here anyway.
Remember the day you picked me up as a pup?
Now look at me... I'm all grown up.
Please love me and hold me, just like that day.
Your puppy, I'll be...... forever, ... always.

We have a teenage son living at home and 5 older children and granddaughters who visit frequently. Our entire family takes part in caring for all our goldens, as well as other animals on our ranch. We feel it a privilege to be able to raise goldens because we know that their special characteristics of being extremely loyal, loving, and smart make them exceptional companions. In addition to spending time with and caring for all our furry friends, we enjoy spending time together as a family, working and cooking together, and enjoying the outdoors.
We have chosen to focus on what is known in the U.S. as the "English" or "European goldens," a.k.a. "English creams." Simply put, these are golden retrievers with very recent lines from Europe. Research has shown that they have about 1 1/2 years of longer life expectancy and a 37% lower rate of cancer than their American golden counterpart. English goldens also tend to have a blockier head and muzzle, a slightly stockier build, a flatter top line, and rounder eyes that are more level with their ears. Their coat coloring also tends to be lighter. Still, English or American, they are the same breed: the Golden Retriever, and we ultimately breed for health, structure, and sound temperament.
Because we have a high regard for the golden retriever breed and want to provide you with the best possible service, we are committed to continuing to learn as much as we can about improving the breed. We are continually expanding our knowledge by attending breeder education classes, consulting with our veterinarian and other experienced breeders and professionals, and doing much of our own research from books and online literature. We attend Pinnacle Pet's and MPBA's annual breeder conferences to get thorough and up-to-date information on improving our breeding program. Classes at the conferences are eligible for college credit and include a wide range of topics, for example, breeding stock selection and care, the latest vaccination/worming protocols, and socialization techniques for puppies. We are also active and participating members of the MPBA, Missouri Pet Breeder's Association, and register all our puppies through the American Kennel Club.
In addition to consulting with our local veterinarian, Dr. Bruce Hood, at Countryside Veterinary Small Animal Clinic in Bolivar, MO, we closely follow the recommendations of Dr. Bramlage, retired Director of Veterinary Services at Revival Animal Health. Not only has Dr. Bramlage had over 30 years of veterinary experience, but Dr. Bramlage is an expert in healthy breeding practices and disease management. He has been a frequent lecturer at the annual conferences we attend, and we have spoken with him personally several times to get his expert advice. We use many of Revival Animal Health's products, including DocRoy's and Breeder's Edge product lines, to optimize the health of our puppies and their parents. Please feel free to visit Revival Animal Health's website and take the opportunity to learn from the numerous publications, videos, and webinars located in the "Learning Center."
We also strongly recommend NuVet Labs products, including NuJoint immune system support and hip and joint supplements, which we regularly use to support the health and joints of our breeding dogs. To learn more about these exceptional quality supplements and products, please visit: www.nuvet.com/707079.

"Just amazing how much they teach us everyday. Mainly unconditional love." -- Alla K.
"Words can not describe our much joy and love Umka has brought to our family. We all dearly love her and enjoy every moment being with her. She is a true gift of unconditional love that deeply touches our hearts and lives. She is very smart, intelligent, lots of fun, and a pure magnet for hugs and kisses. Its just addicting. She became a member of our family, and it's hard to treat her as a dog – she is just like a human being. She understands and anticipates our every move and like a “caring mother” loves to watch and play with the kids and family. She truly has a Golden heart and amazing character. She knows how to melt everyone's heart. Rex and Zoe, it was a blessing to find you and get such a wonderful Golden friend. Thank you!!!"
-- Alla K. (repeated customer)
"Those are the most beautiful babies. I have a two year old from Forever Your Puppies. He’s perfect in every way."
-- Wendy W.
"We purchased our puppy "Goldie" in December 2014. I checked references, and got two wonderful responses from people who had bought puppies from them. I also checked with the vet, who spoke positively about them. We picked up our puppy at 8 weeks 3 days. She is even better than expected! When we got her, she was already VERY close to being housebroken! They had taught her to go in the grass, and she came home with a strong "sense" that the grass is her toilet. As long as we take her out very often, she is basically housebroken. She is only 10 weeks now and has even sat by the door a few times to let us know she wants to go outside. She also learned to sit on command after just 3 times of teaching her (less than 3 minutes). We are still working on other tricks/commands! I highly recommend this breeder!"

"I adopted a puppy from Forever Your Puppies, and could not be happier ... and could not have found a better breeder to do business with. It has been some time since I owned a puppy, and had ALOT of questions, and some special requests ... and wanted to know from the ground up, how to best take care of and raise this puppy ... This breeder ALWAYS made himself available .. and went way out of his way to help me ... and make sure everything was done right the first time, and the transition from his home to mine, was excellent. I highly recommend this breeder."

I have a personal coach for her that gave her the Good Citizen course, and says that she has lots of potential for winning important awards in conformation competitions and dog shows.....I think that she inherited the beauty of her parents and deserves to be shown and in that way honor them."

"Good evening, We just got home from Fort Smith for our vet check. Everything was fine and Atlas weighed it at 14 and1/2 lbs. Our granddaughter wants to name him Walker so you can put that on his paper work. Walker and Calli are in the middle of the floor chasing each other right now. Calli is our granddaughter. She just loves him already. Will you be having puppies in the near future? Please let us know we may be interested in additional purchases. People that have seen Walker thing he is great. We could also let friends know when you have future litters.
Thanks,
--Steve and Linda W."
"I have owned my beautiful, female puppy I purchased from Rex for three weeks now. I would recommend to anyone looking for a healthy puppy with both parent's pedigrees and OFA certifications, to consider buying a puppy from Rex and his wife."
-- Lynn K.
"I am so thankful for my puppy. I named him Wilson. He is healthy and doing great! He is almost 11 months old and weighs almost 60 lbs. He loves everyone that he meets.
Wilson is very playful. He has a lot of toys but he likes his two bears the best. He likes to take walks and does great on the leash. Our backyard is pretty big and open and he loves to run especially if there is something for him to chase.
I take him everywhere with me and he gets so many compliments. He loves the extra attention, too. He is a very handsome little guy.
Wilson is very sweet too. He likes to sit with me and watch the Dog TV channel or any show with animals. He is terrified of hippos on TV!
I have attached a few pictures. He is just amazing! I absolutely love him! Thank you!"
-- Bill
