Frequently Asked Questions
Birdie, formerly Tootsie, has been a great addition to our family. She was very clearly well socialized. The entire process from reaching out to Marta expressing interest to picking up Birdie was so seamless. I would recommend others to look here if they’re also interested in adopting a golden retriever puppy!
What Summer's Goldens does really well is communicate!! First, there is an abundance of information provided upfront and that information is then backed up by consistent communication throughout the entire process. During my inital research, I found the website to be very informative which allowed me to feel confident in my choice to move forward with Summer's Goldens. I was further reassured by thorough communication, both with updates on the puppies as well as timely responses to any and all of my questions whenever I had them, no matter how trivial. This made the process feel very personal and that Summer's Goldens had my family's best interest at heart. The picture and video updates that were sent, as well as the personality descriptions, were very helpful and beyond adorable!!! It's only been a week with our sweet little guy but he is perfect in every way and we couldn't imagine life without him!
If we ever want a second pup (very possible) or we hear of anyone looking to adopt we would not hesitate even a heartbeat to steer them to Marta at Summers Goldens!
The way I did this was my wife did not know we were picking up a pup, just going on a date. It worked out so sweet and she was really happily surprised!
Thoroughly enjoying our new baby girl Abby Oaklee!

We searched so many states and breeders and came across Summers Goldens.
Even through it was “far” from Philadelphia we were so drawn to all the 5 star 🌟 reviews, how much information was provided on their website and we loved that summers goldens takes all the extra health precautions to reduce the risk of future health issues.
We checked out the litters we had choices of and we were sold that this was the right place for us.
Like all the other reviews say, working with Marta is such a pleasant and professional experience. She is even more lovely in person and there is no doubt in my mind that all of her dogs and the dogs they breed are handled with love and care at every turn.
We ended up going with Oliver’s (obviously lol) and Naomi’s litter and we picked up our sweet Gus, last Friday 07/11. It’s an experience we will never forget and always cherish.
Meeting our new boy was love at first sight. Traveling home all day (3 hours in a car, bus transfer, 3 hours in the airport, and 2 hours on a plane) Gus was so easy going and enjoyed the entire day. We were amazed how well adjusted he was to all these new experiences. He loves his new home and we continue to be amazed by how quickly he’s learning things and overcoming new puppy challenges.
We feel so grateful that we found Summers Goldens. If we decide to get another in the future we know where we will go.
We’ve brought joy to hundreds of families. Keep reading to learn more about their experience in working with us!
