Golden Retriever Experience®

Golden Dog Farm and Butternut Goldens bring a whole new meaning to “Happy”! Surround yourself with a “happy” of Goldens from Butternut Goldens and Golden Dog Farm. Much like a gaggle of geese or a rhumba of snakes, a “happy” is a group of Golden Retrievers! And for a "Happy Hour" you can enjoy a playdate with at least 10 Golden Retrievers in the bucolic setting of Golden Dog Farm. Play ball, snap photos, and cuddle on your way to having the best afternoon of your life! Refreshments provided. 

Pricing: $99.95/person and includes 6% Vermont State Sales Tax ($94.30 + $5.65 = $99.95).  PLEASE REGISTER with both your phone number and email. Thanks
