Golden Gate Kooikerhondjes

Golden Gate Kooikerhondjes, Nederlandse kooikerhondje breeder in San Jose, CA, serves Santa Clara County and the Bay Area near San Francisco. Dr. Susanne Martin has over fifteen years of experience in canine breeding and holds active membership in the Nederlandse Kooikerhondje Club of America and other national kennel organizations. All dogs undergo hip, elbow, cardiac, and eye examinations by board certified veterinarians before breeding, and health certificates are available with each litter.

Puppies grow up in a family home, where daily socialization includes children, household noises, and supervised play with resident pets. The kennel maintains a partially outdoor run with shaded areas and soft bedding, ensuring kooikerhondjes learn to adapt to different environments. Adults participate in local shows and temperament assessments, and several have earned placements for type, agility, and sound behavior. Families often note that puppies arrive ready to bond, exhibiting curiosity, resilience, and a balanced disposition suited for both apartment living and larger yards.
