Our Golden Retrievers are bred to meet the standard of the Golden Retriever breed. Meeting all the sizes, weights, heights and other skeletal structures that are the standard of the breed. They also meet all requirements of the AKC (American Kennel Club) and have required pure bred registration papers/documents. Our Sires are Doc who weighs about 80 lbs and Midas who is around 85 lbs. The Dams, Daisy, Amber, Dixie, Whisper and Star are about 65 lbs and Kate is about 10 pounds less. We breed Blonde to light Gold and Cream in color, but on occasion a lighter shade of redish gold will show up in some litters. Parents and puppys are caring, sensitive and happy. Most also love the water, and  retrieving. Everyone who has owned a Golden Retriever knows the breed wants to please their leader more than anything else in the world, but in their spare time, they thrive on attention, exercise, discipline, fun and affection!

 In Pecan Gap Texas our dogs have over 45 acres and  two ponds great for swimming, our Golden Retrievers live to play, exercise and explore each day. They also enjoy supervised trips into the surrounding farming community, where there are many square miles of  unfenced farm land. Specifically bred for retrieving Ducks from the water, Golden Retrievers are a Sporting Breed of Canine that will literally break the ice to swim and retrieve. The East Texas landscape is a like a playground for them, complete with our "friends" the Dove, Duck, Quail, Wild Boar, even Deer and all kinds of "other friends" like Coyotes, Armadillo, Frogs, Field Mice, Raccoons and Opossum. With the beautiful rolling hills, many surrounding pools and various different landscapes, it's a little piece of dog heaven. 

Of course the attention the Golden Retriever demands is remarkable. Any one of our Golden Retrievers would love being in the home with us and can naturally adapt  to that arena in a single moment. They are all highly trainable. Specifically, Golden's are known for the way they easily adapt to almost any situation and achieve almost any duty. Golden Retrievers are the #1 family dog and they are comfortable inside or outside the home. Originally bred in Scotland as a Sporting Breed, primarily for Duck Hunting in ice cold water. Golden's have excelled above and beyond any single purpose. Golden Retriever's versatility in Field Trial, Agility, Obedience Training,Tracking and as Show Dogs is simply outstanding. Golden's are also used as a Working Breed, for Rescue, Seeing Eye Dogs,Police Service, Cadaver Dogs, Therapy Dogs, and many more.

It is important to note, during the Summer months Golden Retrievers need to have access to plenty of fresh water and shade for keeping cool. (or inside an air conditioned home) Overall Texas is a great place to have this wonderful breed of canine.

  Meet the Parents

 Welcome to Jungle Tramp , our intentions are to allow our  female Golden Retrievers to breed only once a year, skipping at least one heat cycle for improved health. Whelping is generally preferred in the Spring, Fall and Winter seasons. 

 Our oldest breeding Goldens are Doc and Midas, they are soon to be 6 years old, they're very healthy and active running at least a mile a day. Of course Inbreeding is discouraged, we breed our dogs from different genetic bloodlines using the Out Crossing method which insures a healthier line of dogs with the least chance of genetic complications. Though Line Breeding may eventually become an option because of some of its advantages, currently we do not use the method.  As best as we can tell, from semi bi-yearly Veterinarian trips and observing our Golden's, they are soundly healthy. Also a very sensitive caring breed, playful, adaptable, smart, really the ultimate loyal companion.

  Even when kenneled, our Golden Retrievers have a wonderful life, they roam in three huge pins covering more than 30,000 square feet. Each area is about the size of a football field. Unless the female is isolated due to puppies or her heat cycle, our Golden's live in friendly interchangeable packs. Of course a minimum daily 3-6 hour and a 1-3 mile exercise outside their home, is absolutely required by our Golden family. Up to 16 hours or more outside their immense area is common place and even more to their satisfaction. Our Golden Retrievers are allowed to exercise and play on over 45 acres, with two pools ideal for swimming and cooling down in the Summer months.
