Golden Retriever Experience®

Golden Dog Farm LLC

| /

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

Absolutely loved my experience here! Discovered this place by chance and was so thrilled to have found this place in the winter time. So therapeutic to play with the cute goldens and meet the lovely owners.

Amazing

We had an incredible time playing with all the golden retrievers, with Wyatt quickly becoming my top favorite, followed closely by Steve. The dogs were absolutely adorable, so soft and playful, making the entire experience truly enjoyable. The scenery around us was nothing short of stunning; the views took my breath away. One suggestion I have is to provide bandanas or collars with each dog's name. It would have made it easier for me to remember all the golden retrievers, as I didn’t see any identifiers on them.

Experience

I got this for a gift for my girlfriend and honestly it didn’t disappoint. So kind and caring people who give everyone a great experience and they also take pictures as well. They have a little gift store and they sell maple syrup which is one of the best around. Id recommend this to everyone and anyone.
