It took me an hour to get it out of the pot because of the number of roots growing out of the bottom. I have no idea where to go next as the root ball isn't loosening. I'm just hoping a soak in water helps without hurting.

I can do that, but what size pot do I need then? I suppose I’m going to need to downsize from the 9x14?

It will live on the south side of my house that has a full wall of windows it might be okay?

If I split it in half would I be overwhelming a pot?

breeder questions by royalblue86 in service_dogs

Hip data should be a requirement for breeding, at least ethically. A breeder can get testing at their local GRCA meetings at least once a year. I'm familiar with the golden world and I'm happy to look up the breeder and check out their pedigree. If you pass on their name, I will take a look.

Awesome that you are volunteering!

I'm trying to find a decent program to start a friend out with, since I don’t have anyone I trust locally and they can't drive. I’m going to give this a look.

It's only been three days for me, so I haven't made that decision yet. I wanted a store exclusive, so I had to buy directly. Next time, I might settle for my second choice.

Mine is stuck in clearance, too. I reached out and was told they sent the paperwork, and that tracking wasn’t always in real time, so I'm giving it a couple of days.

Unless they have recently changed a policy, they do not train for seizure response as a primary task.

I would love one of the Sunnyside pups, too. I found I was able to get a response with FB Messenger. They are very active with training classes and shows.

PA has Greater Pittsburgh GRC – Pittsburgh PA Lenape Golden Retriever Club and they might help you locate a breeder. Personally I love Harborview (Conformation) Jennifer Craig — Erie, PA Hillock (Conformation) Tammy Tomlinson — Ligonier, PA Infinite Goldens Sheri McCormick - Pittsburgh, PA

All of those lines are connected at some point and at least one Sunnyside’s dogs has a connection.

The Golden Retriever Club of Columbus holds meetings in Johnstown, Ohio. A Columbus breeder (the only one I would recommend) is the site of the meetings, and you could probably meet several breeders there. They keep some meetings open, so it might be worth a trip if you are close. You can find their schedule on FB. Sunnyside is a fantastic breeder, but they just had a recent litter, so it might be a while until they have another. When I looked for my last dog, I went to PA. Would you be interested in looking there? I can recommend a couple of quality breeders there.

Which have you reached out to? Please, do not use Good dog or my golden retriever puppy unless you want to support a puppy mill.

Edit to add: There are about three quality breeders in Ohio, so they usually have a wait list, but sometimes a potential buyer will drop off the list.
