I receive phone calls and emails daily with inquires for "white golden retrievers" and we do not breed "white golden retrievers". Our dogs look white at times but they are actually light cream according to the color standard. The UK (European) Kennel Club standard for the golden retriever is cream to dark gold. If you take the time to research the European lineages you will find beautiful tones from light cream to dark golden. Here are a few examples listed below just click on the links.

In truth, in every country these dogs are simply golden retrievers and nothing more. All of our dogs are imported from Europe and considered "English Type Golden Retrievers". To understand where the term "English Golden Retriever" came from please read this article by Bev Brown by clicking on the link below.
