"Exceptional breeder! From the first email I sent to inquire about getting a puppy to the day I picked her up, Deer Creek was a pleasure to work with. The communication was top-notch: emails were answered within the same day, all my questions were answered, and I was provided with tons of helpful information & resources to help raise a happy & healthy puppy. I was able to meet my puppy, her litter mates, & parents before taking her home and was so impressed by the clean & loving family-oriented environment they're raised in. They are one of the very few breeders who use the Puppy Culture program, which makes such a huge difference in having a well-socialized, well-trained puppy. The puppies are set up for success from the very beginning, & the very first day I brought my puppy home she responded to the clicker, sat & waited for her food, was comfortable in her crate, and gave signals to me when she had to potty. At ONLY 8 weeks old! We get so many compliments on what a well-mannered & beautiful puppy she is. It's clear how much time, effort, & care Deer Creek puts into the puppies they raise & I'd recommend them to anyone who wants an English Cream Golden." Stephen and Kiersten Brennan |

From the information on your website, to phone calls back and forth, to quick responses to our email questions, you have been consistently prompt and thorough with your answers. We appreciated the updated pictures and notes about the puppy as we waited for the pickup date to arrive. We are having a great time with Laska and look forward to many happy years ahead. Thank you."

"Deer Creek Goldens earns 5 stars from us! From the beginning phone calls and questions until Miss Bella's arrival the entire experience was welcoming and one with ease! Weloved the constant updates and videos posted online and the personal pictures and updates emailed to us as we waited to meet our girl.
Miss Bella is very loving with our 3 kids and a joy to have in our home. She is highly intelligent and even our vet was impressed! This experience was the easiest we have ever had and the most pleasant one as well in welcoming a new family member. I highly recommend if you want a English Golden to end your search here. Care, honesty, and a great golden is what u will find. Thank you so much for our beautiful Miss Bella!!!" Shawn C. |

"Albus fits perfectly into our family. He is such an intuitive, confident, playful, yet calm, puppy. Thank you for all you did to socialize and train him at such an early age.
We are definitely pursuing the therapy dog goal. He has already spent a week with a professional trainer and is currently in the first of 3-4 classes required to be a therapy dog. He is definitely “best in class”. He has been so fun to train. So, so smart. Thank you for helping us to have the perfect puppy for therapy work!! He seems to already be house trained and is such a fun little guy. He has such a SWEET personality. It is obvious the love that goes into your puppies. We could not be more thrilled with Albus and the incredible experience we have had with you. Keep doing the great work. It is seriously impressive and appreciated. Thank you!!" Tim and Katie Yoder |

"Bella is doing wonderful! We are so happy with her and the whole experience. You made things real easy with the frequent updates and pictures. I have been asked many times where we got Bella and I always give them your website. She is so quick to learn things and listens very well. We love her so much! We have received so many compliments on her. There are not many English Cream Goldens in this area. Thank you for contacting us, we will keep you posted!" Debra Beaudette |

"We are so delighted with our new puppy Sophie. She has a wonderful calm temperament and so fun loving and inquisitive. We are amazed how long she is willing to let us hold her- even at 11 weeks. Clearly she was handled and played with a lot as a small puppy. She learned to sit almost immediately and she continues to amaze us on how quickly she is learning. Our experience with Deer Creek has been stellar. Phone calls and emails have been returned promptly. We went to visit our puppy before we paid our deposit and was so impressed how immaculate the property was as well as how quiet and well behaved the dogs were as we pulled up the long drive on this gorgeous Iowa farm. I would highly recommend this breeder." Connie Hippee |

"We can’t believe we have had Savannah for almost 2 weeks! It seems she has already grown so much. We have just loved having her. Her temperament is fantastic. She is so loving and sweet. And you can just look at your dogs to know how beautiful they are and she is that beautiful! Everyone that sees her comments on that one thing. We are trying to housebreak her and get her used to the crate. That just takes time. She loves our backyard and so far hasn’t found a leaf she didn’t like! She comes to the office with me Mon, Wed, and Fri and the patients love her. It’s a great way to socialize her. I keep our grandkids (2 and 4 years old) on Tuesdays and she loves them! Our son has a 9 year old Lab that she constantly wants to play with. They are both worn out on Tuesdays. It’s amazing how she has adapted to all three places. She is such a smart dog and so eager to please which helps with the training process. We LOVE this breed and are so thankful that we got her. We’ve never had a large dog, so she is perfect for learning how to take care of a larger breed. Thank you for doing so much to help us in getting her. We had never bought a dog through the Internet, so we were unsure of what to expect. Y’all were amazingly easy to work with and never got tired (I think) of all my questions. She was everything and more than what we expected. It was a perfect experience and we thank God for her."

"Caesar has grown up to be quite the handsome boy but he’s in need of a friend to play with. He’s absolutely beautiful and I get comments on how gorgeous he is every day. Probably the smartest dog I’ve ever known and so easy to train. I don’t know what I’d do without him honestly. He’s my whole world. I’ve attached a couple pictures of him and feel free to use them if you ever want to show him off." Dave Schiele |

"I wanted to send you a quick email to let you know how Max is doing at 11 weeks old and tell you and your family thank you for everything. Max is fitting in in Idaho quite well. He is a great addition to our family. We lost our 10 year old golden retriever to cancer earlier this year and thought it would be so difficult to love another dog as much as we loved our last one. Max has proven us wrong. He has brought a lot of activity and happiness to our family. We have a year old daughter and he is great with her. I can tell he played with a lot of kids before he arrived in Idaho. He goes to the park with us and loves to chase her back and forth as she swings on the swings. He also took a ride with her in her Barbie Powerwheels, it is really cute, I have attached a picture of the 2 of them together.
Numerous people have commented what a good puppy he is. Don’t get me wrong, he has his puppy moments, but that is what makes having a puppy so much fun. Nearly everyone we encounter with Max comments on how beautiful he is. People we have never met before pull over from driving down the street and ask what kind of dog he is and how old he is and say he is gorgeous. After 2 trips to the vet for shots and a check up, the vet said he is doing great and is very healthy. You and your family do a wonderful job with these puppies. I have already had 2 people ask me to forward on your website link. So, don't be surprised if you get some inquiries from other people in Idaho. Thanks again for everything." Rusty and Robin Evans |
