    Hey Mr.Nelson,
    I hope you have been doing well. I know its been nearly five years, but I have been meaning to reach out and thank you.
    Hattie is from the Star and Sampson litter born in June of 2020, and she has truly been one of the greatest blessings in our lives. When we brought her home at 8 weeks, she was just 5.5lbs. Today she is a strong, healthy 74lbs and every bit the loving, loyal dog we hoped she would be.
    My girlfriend at the time is now my wife of three years, and we recently welcomed our 3-month-old daughter. Hattie has been absolutely incredible with her. Shes gentle, patient, and so aware. She lays next to her during tummy time and just watches over her. Its been amazing to see her naturally step into that big-sister role.
    Her temperament is everything you would want in a Golden. She is affectionate, playful, protective in the right ways, and somehow still convinced she is still a lap dog!
    I just wanted you to know how beautifully she turned out and how grateful we are for the care you put into your dogs. I have attached a few photos so you can see how she hass grown.
    Thank you again for giving us such an incredible companion and family member.
    All the best,Martin C.

The balance of $1500 would be due the day you choose and take home your puppy. ***Deposits are non refundable your deposit may be moved to future litters.
It is the buyer responsibility to stay in touch with me by phone.
Thank you

  • How do I contact you?Calling Chris Nelson is always best Phone: (804)380-3666 (Thank you Grayland Nelson: Owner)
  • Choosing your puppy - Pups are chosen on pickup date at age 7-8 weeks, in order of date/time deposit was made. I try and break the sale of puppies up.. I take a few deposits before pups are born, and few more after litters arrive. I may hold back a number of puppies, and a list is kept of possible buyers for the remainder of the litter. All of these spots fill up very quick.
  • Visiting my Goldens. - The only true way to see the health of a Golden is by seeing it. Do not take a "papers" word for the health of a dog. When you visit my home, I am always proud to show you all my Goldens and you see first hand the health of each dog. Living conditions for my Goldens is one of my top proprieties, from making sure the areas are clean, well fead to play areas even in cold winter conditions.
