JOIN THE WAITLIST

Welcome to Golden Puppies Haven! We are thrilled that you are interested in adopting one of our adorable and healthy Golden Retriever puppies.

Here’s everything you need to know about joining our waitlist and securing your spot for an upcoming litter.

Why Join Our Waitlist?

Joining the Golden Puppies Haven waitlist offers several advantages:

Personalized Support: Our dedicated team is here to support you throughout the waitlist process. We are available to answer your questions, provide guidance, and ensure that you are fully prepared for your new puppy’s arrival.
Commitment and Reservation: A small commitment reservation fee secures your spot on the waitlist and demonstrates your serious interest in adopting from us. This fee is non-refundable and will be applied towards your final adoption fee.
