Leslie Kannus2024-07-30 Two years ago, after my beloved golden retriever passed away, I was looking for an ethical breeder, so I could find a new best pal. I love the breed so much, I wanted to be certain to find a breeder who takes the responsibility very seriously, not only to provide excellent care for their dogs, but to work toward improving the gene pool of the breed (as it pertains to health and temperament). After quite a bit of research, I received a recommendation for Famn Damily Farm from a very knowledgeable, trusted source. This person said, “Melodie runs a really good operation.” After checking them out and talking at length with Melodie, I knew this was where I wanted to get my next pup. Melodie breeds with the goals of excellent health and outstanding temperament. She’s not breeding for looks, but all the dogs I’ve seen from her farm are beautiful! She cares about what becomes of her pups and wants continued contact (and photos!) from her clients. She also wants to know of any problems that arise, so she can alter any future breeding to address that. Our sweet pup was born May 6, 2018, and we brought her home July 1, 2018. She’s our third Golden, and she’s been an absolute joy! She’s been very healthy, she’s a smart and eager learner, she’s playful and cuddly, and she loves everyone (human or otherwise!). Not a day has gone by that we haven’t been thankful to have her! I wouldn’t hesitate to get another Golden from Famn Damily Farm, and I’ve recommended them to several people.

We wouldn’t go any other place to get a Golden. #famndamilyfarm is truly a special place. Julia Werner2024-07-17 I have gotten 2 of my Goldens from Famn Damily Farm and they are the absolute sweetest dogs ever! I highly recommend them! Dave Peck2024-07-16 Best golden retriever breeder around. Small, family owned, and exactly how you want your puppy to be treated before going to your home! Melodie is the sweetest and truly treats her new families like her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better companion, and would recommend Famn Damily Farm to anyone looking for a beautiful and best tempered golden retriever. maldania2024-07-16 Our family has been lucky enough to get two Goldens from Famn Damily Farms and I cannot say enough good things about both the dogs and Melodie! Melodie clearly loves every puppy she has and goes above and beyond in their care from the moment they’re born until even after they go home through her dedication to her customers. She is very active on our facebook group and even throws a reunion every year! It’s also important to me that the parent dogs are treated well and they sure are- those are some of the happiest dogs I’ve met and they make happy puppies. I’ve included some photos of my dog Callie who is the light of my life- happy, friendly, sweet, wonderful temperament. If you’re looking for your best friend, Famn Damily is the place to go! Brittany Cutrone2023-09-13 Famn Damily Farm is the absolute best place for a golden! Melodie and the whole team were incredible. They were professional, responsive and loving throughout the entire process. Picking up our baby was so much fun! We are so happy with our baby. At only 9 weeks, she has the best temperament and is so well behaved. We cannot wait for the reunion! Captain Planet2023-07-22 2 perfect pups from fam damily Kristine Jarosz2023-04-07 Highly recommend Melodie as a breeder and Famn Damily Farm! We’ve had our golden for three years and he is THE BEST DOG and I attribute so much of this to Melodie. The love and passion she has for her goldens is above and beyond anything I’ve encountered before. Forever grateful to Famn Damily! Amy Crowley2023-04-07 If you want a good breeder look no further…rated one of the top 10 in the country!! But that’s not why I own 2 Famn Damily Farms goldens…it’s all about the temperament for me. My oldest boy is the best boy I’ve owned in my 33 years of owning goldens! He’s almost 4 & is in training to be a therapy dog. He never barks which could be good or bad depending on how you look at it. Both of my boys (the newest little guy is 13 weeks old & my older one just loves him! The care & compassion, along with all the details about caring for the moms & babies is what makes Melodie stand out among golden breeders. Both of my boys came to me at just the right time. I’m so unbelievably grateful for them & the family of owners that I am a part of. You won’t be sorry getting a puppy from Melodie!! Best choice ever!!! Anyone interested should take a tour of the farm & meet the mommas & sire. The annual reunions are wonderful! Thank you Mel for all you do for your woofer family & for everyone who’s lucky to have found your farm. ❤️🐾
