Tessa -

I just wanted to drop you a note and let you know how much we love our golden - she came into our family last October and is cherished.  We named her Tessa and she has such a great disposition.  She loves the water, boating, riding in a car and just about everywhere we go she is with us.  All who meet Tessa fall in love with her.  She is my husband, Mike's shadow.  He is disabled and has given him complete joy!
Again, I want to thank you for giving us such a wonderful dog.

The Dyson family, their puppies and their kennel overall are the pinnacle of dog breeding. Cindy and Nicole were incredibly helpful and insightful throughout the entire process and my golden, Hank, who just turned 6 months old, is an exceptional dog. I would recommend Cozy Cabin Kennels to anyone and everyone looking for a wonderful golden and a truly stress-free and welcoming take-home experience.

I would love to share my experience about our addition to our family through Cozy Cabin Kennels. From start to finish, our family couldn’t have had a better experience. We were always updated on the pups status, and sent pictures and videos of all of the pups. The Dysons are truly a warm-hearted family who blessed us with our Walter. I am always complimented on how beautiful of a golden retriever he is, and my veterinarian told me I have one gorgeous, healthy dog. His vet techs LOVE when he comes in for his well visits. Walt loves to spend his days snuggling on the couch and squeaking ALL of the squeaky toys. He is the biggest love bug and I am so thankful for Cozy Cabin Kennels for bringing him into our family.

Macy, 7 months old

From start to finish, we were very happy with our experience at Cozy Cabin Kennel's. We were able to meet our future puppy and her parents at the Dyson's home soon after the litter was born and we fell in love with them the same day. All of the Dyson's dogs are friendly, intelligent and beautiful animals and we felt sure that any puppy from that line would be the same. Due to the distance and COVID, we were only able to visit the Dyson's once before "gotcha day" but Nicole and Cindy kept us updated regularly with pictures and videos. They answered all of our questions and helped us prepare for the arrival of our new puppy with suggestions and examples of feeding/bathroom schedules, things to tell our vet and even how to deal with our puppy's teenage rebellion. After we took our new puppy home, Nicole and Cindy checked up on us to make sure everyone was adjusting well and continued to be a great source of information. Macy is a beautiful dog, very loving and eager to please us and we have no doubt that is due to Cindy's meticulous work. We know that she will be a treasured family member for many years to come.

We just went to meet the pups at Cozy Cabin Kennels, as my friend lost his lab a few weeks before and wanted to have another companion. He did not want to compare his new pup to his lab so he decided to get a Golden Retriever. I went along for the ride as I have had Collies and Shelties.

After meeting Cindy and Steve, we were impressed at how excited they were about their puppies how they held and hugged each of them. The parents of the puppies were there and you could see what a Golden Retriever would be like when grown. We both fell in love and decided to take a male and female. These two pups are growing up in separate houses but have play dates several times a week. They go crazy when they are together; so full of life and excitement. You just watch, laugh, and think of how lucky you are to have received such beautiful, healthy puppies.

We now understand why they say that Golden Retrievers make the best pets. My female, Dixie, and the male, Duncan, have a lot of white in their coat like their father. We hope to get together with all the other puppies in the litter for a reunion this summer. We wonder if they will remember their litter mates!

What a pleasure the whole “Gotcha Day” was bringing home our new family member, Oakley! The Dyson’s gave us a wealth of knowledge upon bringing Oakley home; they were available to give us any help and insight as first time pet owners, if necessary. We love our fur baby as he is such a fun loving and intelligent pup!
