Puppies
We do not have puppies at the moment.
We will be planning litters around April 2019 - which means IF our girls are pregnant, we will only have puppies available around June 2019, and puppies ready for their new homes around end August 2019. This litter will be born and raised in Forest Hill, KZN.
Tormei Golden Retrievers is pregnant with Maggie (Ch Kilifi Maggie Mae of Tormei) and Jake (Ch Mochavulin Colour Me Jake) and puppies will be due around end of April 2019, ready for their new homes around end July 2019. This litter will be born and raised in Johannesburg.

Due to the high demand of our puppies, most puppies have already been booked. We do not work on a "first come-first serve" basis and rather select the BEST possible homes for our puppies. We do have waiting lists for our puppies, and we carefully screen all potential homes. Please be prepared to wait for a quality, well bred puppy.
To INQUIRE and BOOK a puppy please complete the Puppy Questionnaire and return to us via email.
Also please visit all the pages relating to Golden Retrievers to ensure that you will be a suitable home for one of our puppies.

The Puppy Price Debate
We often get inquiries from people just wanting to know what the price is for our puppies. We sell our puppies for R12,000 to R15,000 depending on the dogs we use. We do the following Health Checks on our dogs:
There is quite a considerable difference in price & therefore also in QUALITY. You might buy a puppy now for R3000, but the chances that you will soon be burdened with high vet bills will increase two-fold & you will probably also not get any support, advice or guidance from the breeders should any problems arise.As with any pedigree dog, every breed suffers from genetic problems due to the limited gene pools being used. That is why pedigree dogs sometimes do get sick more often than the usual "pavement special" because with mixed-breeds its exactly what you get - a diverse combination of numerous genes from different breed that may or may not counteract against one another. Although you might end up with a more "genetically sound" dog you will also never know the temperament of the dog, the full size it might reach or whether or not any of its ancestors has any genetic defects that can result in more problems, huge vet bills and a lot of heartache when you have to put your beloved dog to sleep because of cancer or other ailments, or simply cant afford the veterinary costs associated with hip replacements, expensive exploratory surgery or any other major illness.
Choosing a RESPECTED, REPUTABLE Breeder is therefore one of the most important decisions that you will make. Although all dogs are still "livestock" there cant be any guarantees as we are still dealing with nature ... and even the most carefully planned mating can still result in either minor or major problems - the difference comes in the breeder, the support, the advice, guidance and expertise that you will not get from someone that does not know the breed intimately as well as the associated problems with the breed. With the right guidance you can avoid a lot of problems, simply by following the recommended feeding, exercise and training guidelines & you are more assured of a long-term, happy, healthy pet!
Its therefore easy to see WHY going to a RESPECTED, REPUTABLE and REGISTERED, ACCREDITED KUSA BREEDER is the only option that you should consider!!!
