R Ranch Golden Retrievers

R Ranch Golden Retrievers, run by Judy Rash, has been raising AKC-registered golden retrievers in Orland, California since 1985. The property sits on 4.5 acres within a fruit orchard in this small farming community in Northern California's Sacramento Valley, roughly an hour and fifteen minutes north of Sacramento.

The program draws from multi-champion European lines, with world and international champions in the dogs' lineage and some adults carrying titles of their own. Health testing is a central part of the breeding process: adult dogs receive OFA/PennHIP certification for hips and elbows before age two, along with OFA heart and eye clearances through board-certified veterinarians, and a five-panel genetic screen through Paw Print Genetics covering PRA I, PRA II, PRA-prcd, DM, NCL, and ICHT.

Puppies are raised indoors and go through a structured Jump Start Training program modeled on techniques from Bergin University of Canine Studies, incorporating Early Neurological Stimulation beginning at three weeks and progressing through basic obedience and manners using positive reinforcement. For families seeking golden retriever puppies for sale in Northern California with a focus on service, therapy, or companion work, R Ranch offers a program with a long local history. Several dogs from this program have gone on to complete certification as service and therapy dogs.
