RAES OF GOLD - Puppy Expression of Interest Form

Thank you for considering one of our puppies to add to your family. We are very selective to whom we sell our dogs to which we hope you understand :). If you would like to be considered for one of our puppies, we ask you to complete this Expression of Interest Form, as we would like to receive some more in-depth information about you and your world. This will also give you the opportunity to reflect and think certain things through, and explore the ins and outs, and what-ifs. We understand that the cost of a puppy is a significant investment. Our pricing reflects the time, care, love, and financial input that goes into raising each litter — from health testing and breeding decisions through to the many weeks of hands-on care, development, and support provided to each puppy. It is also aligned with the current market for puppies of similar breeding, health testing, and upbringing.

Our Breed: Golden Retriever
