Blue Ridge Golden Retrievers

Blue Ridge Golden Retrievers is a golden retriever breeder in Galax, VA, nestled in the Blue Ridge Highlands near Roanoke. With more than a decade of experience, they follow national breed club guidelines and conduct recommended health screenings for hips and elbows.

Their dogs share the family home and spend each day socializing in a mixed indoor-outdoor environment, learning basic manners from an early age. Puppies are raised on a small family farm where they experience gentle handling, supervised play with children, and exposure to natural settings. Routine veterinary care and a diet of high-quality, grain-inclusive kibble ensure each puppy meets growth milestones. Several littermates have become certified therapy animals and cherished family pets across the state and beyond. Owners receive a detailed health record, microchip registration, and guidance on each stage of puppy development. Keith Ledford draws on regional farming traditions to foster calm, balanced temperaments in each golden retriever.
