My EMANUEL HOMESTEAD GOLDEN PUPS are not only BEAUTIFUL, but their calm, gentle, intelligent temperament of
my unique pups is manifested in the unconditional love that
each pup will give to your family.
My GOLDENS are healthy dogs /pups with solid pedigrees. Temperament is of utmost importance. My pups are especially charming, kindly, loving & engaging. They extend themselves to
nurture very close personal relationships with family members, neighbors & friends! Each pup is loyal, with a
devoted sensitive spirit & exceptional personality. Doesn't this describe exactly they way you want YOUR new pup to be???
EMANUEL HOMESTEAD GOLDENS are the perfect 'fit' for
special needs children &/or elderly folks, or to share as a
ministry with others as a "Therapy Dog" in children's
hospitals; nursing homes; or care centers!!
Because of the special nurturing, love, handling &
foundational training that I give to each of my babies
right from the beginning, you will joyfully discover how
easy your new pup will be to train by following a few
simple & consistent recommendations!
EMANUEL HOMESTEAD GOLDEN'S stunning coat coloring
can range from light white/cream, to pale gold. Deeper
tones are also available. Their distinctive coat texture is just beautiful, with longer feathering on their chest,
legs & hind quarters. Grooming is a "snap!"
The body stature of both genders is usually
solid & compact. My GOLDEN'S - distinguishing square
head, eyes & jaw shape frame their endearing countenance
of facial expressions which top off their overall
extremely inviting & attractive appearance.

I invite you on a tour of my web site which is an ‘on-line’
representation of my kennel,
EMANUEL HOMESTEAD GOLDENS -
Goldens of Distinction!
Celebrating Over 30 Years of EXCELLENCE!! -
My kennel has grown to include, 3 breeding sires and 14 breeding dams, all with Champion backgrounds, that I am actively breeding at this time. Due to the increasing interest & attractiveness of the Special 'Gentile' Temperament, White/Cream Coloring & Strong Stature of a type of Retriever, known as a “NORDIC” Golden Retriever, I am selectively developing my own line of Emanuel Homestead Goldens that feature these specific "NORDIC" characteristics & traits. (Refer to Bloodlines & Championships on this web site for more information.) I continue to raise my beautiful sweet 'traditional' "American Standard" Golden Retrievers, with color ranging from Light Gold - Honey Gold & Deep Amber!!!!
My "American Standard" Golden Pups also have solid
bodies with broad heads.

Dear Chris,
Just have to let you know how great Gracie (Lacey & Teddy's 6-4-2009 Litter) is doing. She is a wonderful puppy who greets everyone as a friend. She continues to be careful around my mother. Gracie does not go near her when she uses her walker, but waits until she is seated in her chair. Then Gracie sits right next to her as if she is waiting for my mother to ask her for something!
Gracie is an eager car passenger and loves to go for rides, no matter how long or short. Early on, she figured that going to the bank drive up window is definitely worth the trip. People in the bank crowd the window to tell her how beautiful she is, and then give her a bone! How much better can it get?
As you can see from the photo, Gracie is growing into a beautiful dog. But she is more than that; she is a joy to have as part of the family. Thanks for all the work you do to have such special dogs.
Merry Christmas to you and your family,
Lucille

NOTHING SHOWS 'UNCONDITIONAL LOVE' LIKE AN EMANUEL HOMESTEAD GOLDEN!!
EMANUEL HOMESTEAD
GOLDENS ALWAYS SAY
"I LOVE YOU!"
****************
All my pups are family raised & born in my "Birthing Center" in our home. At 5-6 weeks of age I move them into my "Puppy Nursery" where they and their mothers continue to be in constant contact and care by our family, yet have more room to romp & play! My special attentiveness & methodology of raising my pups & caring for all of my Goldens results in the mellow and sweet temperament that my kennel's reputation has been built upon.
While I have tried to maintain traditional AKC Golden Retriever characteristics of quality and consistent conformation, I am most concerned with the health & temperament of all of my dogs and their pups. This is so important to me because the majority of my pups are placed with &/or exposed to children & also elderly folks. I wish for my dogs to be a joy and a blessing to a family - not a source of concern or fear.
I have been pleased to remain in contact with many happy owners of my Goldens over the years and my dog’s health is excellent & their temperament has remained consistently gentle & endearing. I have many clients return to add a second & or third Golden to their family!
My primary goal in carefully selecting specific Goldens for Breeding & then for investing all the time & techniques I do in raising my puppies is first & foremost to concentrate on all I can do to develop & enhance the unique "TEMPERAMENT" I desire in all my Goldens. I work to lay the foundation for a loving, sweet, well-mannered Golden, that will be a joy to all who come to know him/her, both no or field trial competitions, I offer AKC pups that have the characteristics, capabilities & versatility that make them more than attractive, capable and suitable to excel in these & other enjoyable activities. My Goldens also have the keen skills, stamina & training reception to become a choice hunting companion.
Read on & enjoy the various photos & extensive information contained on my Web Site.

SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT
TO SEE MY INCREDIBLY CALM &
WELL-MANNERED ----
"NORDIC" GOLDEN RETRIEVERS
One of the most remarkably mild tempered dogs is the "NORDIC" Golden Retriever. Although Golden Retrievers, in general, as a breed, are known for their sweet & loving nature, there is a noticeable calmness, gentleness & reserve consistently observed in these special "NORDIC" dogs, while maintaining their playful interaction & intelligent inquisitiveness. They are especially charming, kindly & loving. "NORDICS" extend themselves in such a way as to nurture & maintain very close & personal relationships with each individual in their family, constantly revealing their loyalty & devotion. Such exceptionable attitudes & spirit quickly establish & “connect” the "NORDIC" Golden with each family member in a very special way.
The "NORDIC" Golden Retriever's beautiful thick coat ranges in coloring from predominantly white, to cream, to pale gold, although deeper tones are seen, since the coloring is not as important as the temperament & overall characteristics. The texture of their top coat is a bit courser & shorter, but "NORDICS" usually still retain a longer feathering look on their chest, legs & hind quarters as "American Standard" Golden Retrievers. As a result of this coat type, once they loose their 'puppy coat', the "NORDICS" have far less “shedding” of the undercoating of their hair. This is often appreciated in the general care & maintenance department, allowing for your time to be spent in play & activities with your "NORDIC" Golden, rather than requiring extensive grooming & cleaning.
The "NORDIC" Golden’s stature is usually a bit more solid & compact, with their overall height being slightly shorter than the "American Standard" Golden. Their head, eyes & jaw shape, along with the countenance of their facial expressions top off their overall appearance making these beautiful "NORDICS" extremely inviting & attractive.
When choosing the ULTIMATE dog for you & your family – EMANUEL HOMESTEAD’S FULL "NORDIC" & HALF "NORDIC" GOLDEN RETRIEVERS, as well as, my incredible EMANUEL HOMESTEAD "AMERICAN STANDARD" GOLDENS rank distinctively apart from all others!!
