Meet Calvin/Breeder Partnership

I am so pleased to partner with Dawn and receive her mentorship throughout this breeding, birth, and puppy raising process! I carefully researched Oregon and Washington breeders and their males to find a good match for Trillium. I wanted to do everything right. Dawn and Calvin are amazing! Dawn is a member in good standing of the AKC and of the Pacific Rim Golden Retrievers Club of Oregon. She has been raising, health testing, and showing goldens for the past 20 years. I feel so grateful to have found someone trustworthy with the heart of a teacher to help me responsibly pursue breeding Trillium. Her boy Calvin (AKC pedigreed) won 1st place in the Golden Retriever Am bred class, and Reserve Winners Dog at the Chintimini Kennel Club 2026 Dog Show. He has a beautiful medium golden coat and conformation. And check out his friendly, golden grin below. You can see why I fell in love with him as a match for Trillium!
