FLODEN FARM GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPIES

We have golden retriever puppy litters planned and/or already whelped for 2026, some from outside breeders utilizing our male studs.

Generally we produce just a couple litters a year through our own females and they are listed on this page below. Above are all of the litters anticipated, including outside dams using our sire. Be sure to bookmark our site to stay updated.

FLODEN FARM GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPIES



TAXI x Einstein PuppIES
Ready March 2026





Photo of Taxi with her prior golden retriever litter (10 puppies)


Taxi whelped 12 healthy puppies in 2025! 5 boys, 7 girls! To date, we have received excellent feedback on these puppies. They are active pups and are very intelligent. Parents also have a nice "off switch" in the home. We plan to repeat this breeding in 2026.Pups have proven intelligent, highly trainable, healthy, and good-natured.


Puppies will likely all be dark in coloring - in prior litters, some have a few "lucky stars" on their heads, which we anticipate will fade away over time as they grow. This is common when breeding two darker parents.


TAXI x EINSTEIN 2025 LITTER


Golden Retriever Puppies whelped in 2025. 12 pups total - 5 males, 7 females. ~This photo will be updated once our current litter has whelped! ~


FLODEN'S TAX EVASION "Taxi"


Taxi is about 55 pounds, and genetically Clear of everything we are able to test for. She passed OFA hips, elbows, eyes and cardiac.


Pricing includes vet checks, first vaccinations, individual AKC registration, four-year health warranty, preventative deworming, temperament testing prior to puppy selection, as well as microchipping.​


While we have removed dewclaws in the past, we do not currently remove dews -- unless a pup's dewclaw was to appear floppy. Newer research and the opinion of some of our best veterinarians recommend avoiding dewclaw removal because of the development of arthritis of the carpal joints in dogs who have had dews removed. Dews serve an important purpose - please see this article for more information.



FLODEN'S MR. FUSION "Einstein"


To be considered for a pup from Taxi's litter, please complete the questionnaire at the bottom of our Puppy Pricing Page or call 1-218-770-7071.



Sire: FLODEN'S MR. FUSION "Einstein"


We've paired Taxi with Einstein, a field golden male. Einstein weighs 68 pounds and is a handsome, medium golden retriever male.


Einstein is currently working in upland hunting pheasant and obedience.


Einstein has a completely clear DNA panel, as does Taxi, so no puppies would be carriers nor would they be affected by many of the common inheritable diseases founds in golden retrievers. Einstein passed OFA hips, elbows, eyes and cardiac.


See more about Einstein on his Page.​

Taxi is a gorgeous girl with a longer coat type, as well as the "intense red" intensity loci for coat coloring. Her genetics testing shows she is likely to have little to no white in her coat (which is the case). While she has a longer coat, she has the genetics for only light to moderate shedding.


Although her genetics test show intermediate to larger body size combined with an allele associated with smaller body size, she is just 52 pounds at three years of age and is well-proportioned. If paired with a larger male, it is possible for those genetics to produce medium to larger pups. Body size can be difficult to determine due to the number of different genetics that play a factor. Her adult weight is predicted at 57 pounds.


Taxi's mother, Pizza, is a water-loving, family dog with wonderful temperament. Pizza's lineage includes dogs with agility jump titles. Her father and sire we co-own, Bison, has hunt test and field titles over his generations - Floden's Pride of the Prairie SH JH TKN CGC. Taxi's heritage goes back to our foundation sire, T-Rex, from three generations ago. T-Rex performed between about a SH to MH level, and was a wonderful dog with children and all animals. He would often bring me a live, baby chick in his very soft mouth. That soft mouth has carried on through the years to Scout, Bison and Taxi. Taxi is the fourth generation of our foundation sire lines. We liked the lower coeffient of inbreeding her litter offered.


Taxi also hunts upland game, particularly pheasant. She is a good tempered golden in the home, loves people - kids in particular. She is our "velcro" dog - always seeking our approval and enjoys just being close to us.


She has a very soft mouth. Her marking ability is very good and her nose is an asset to hunting up pheasant. We plan to continue hunting her in pheasant and working with her in obedience.

No pups will be at risk of any of the known genetic disorders we can test for at this time, which include PRA-prcd, PRA1, DM, SAN, DEB, MD, OI, NCL, and Ichthyosis.


This breeding offers a coefficient of inbreeding of 6.87% (10-generation). If you are a conscientious occasional breeder like ourselves and looking for certain genetics in a pup, please let us know!


Top 5 ancestors contributing to COI, in order of influence:

AFC Holway Barty OS 1.81%

AFC Yankee's Smoke'n Red Devil OS 1.22%

FC Wraiths HTR MN Bro Macdhuibh OS 0.70%

NAFC FC AFC Topbrass Cotton OS FDHF 0.59%

FC AFC Windbreakers Mighty Mo OS FDHF 0.49%


We anticipate birdy, driven pups in this litter. Pups should have the potential to be capable of hunting, hunt tests, conformation, agility, retrieving, scent work, or even service or therapy work as some of Taxi's ancestors have become physical service dogs. Pups will likely appear to be medium to darker golden/red.


Taxi's coat is wavy as she carries both the straight and wavy genetics. She weighs about 52 lbs. She has beautiful, darker pigmentation and happens to carry the intense red gene.


Please note that we don't have a preference when it comes to breeding color, nor for breeding the "rare, white, English Cream golden retriever". Our focus is for other qualities, such as health, temperament and trainability. Review the Golden Retriever Club of America link for a note on golden retriever coloring and why that shouldn't be a primary focus for top breeders.


We encourage families to place their deposit early on this litter. Pricing information and puppy applications are now available.

FLODEN FARM GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPIES



TAXI x Einstein PuppIES
Ready March 2026





Photo of Marley


We anticipate a breeding between Marley and Bison once Marley's health clearances are all passed. Marley turns two years June 2026, and so a fall or winter breeding is possible.


Puppies will have a fabulous blend of Topbrass, Thistle Rock, Fireside, Trifecta, Heads Up, TNT and Emberain field lines.



Photo of Bison and Brielle, his junior handler


Bison began his career with his junior handler, Brielle, when she was a young child and placed trick dog and CGC titles on him. He furthered his work in hunt testing, earning his Junior and Senior Hunter titles. He is very capable of earning a Master Hunter title, however we primarily hunt pheasant and he is presently doing fun hunt tests and training with his co-owner, Tim, who is retired and enjoys training with Bison as an enjoyable past-time.


FLODEN'S BACK TO THE FUTURE II MARLENE MCFLY "Marley"



We anticipate Marley's litter sometime in 2026. We are currently working on her health testing, and should she pass all of her OFA's we'll proceed with this much anticipated breeding! Marley is genetically Clear of everything we are able to test for by parentage. We will begin testing summer 2026 for OFA hips, elbows, eyes and cardiac.


Pricing includes vet checks, first vaccinations, individual AKC registration, four-year health warranty, preventative deworming, temperament testing prior to puppy selection, as well as microchipping.​


While we have removed dewclaws in the past, we do not currently remove dews -- unless a pup's dewclaw was to appear floppy.
