Rio Vista Retrievers

Rio Vista Retrievers is a breeder of golden retriever and Labrador retriever in Flemingsburg, KY, in the Kentucky Bluegrass region near Lexington. It follows recommended health screening protocols for hips, elbows and eyes and participates in breed club programs. Puppies are raised in a family home with early socialization, daily human interaction, scheduled veterinary checks and access to a secure yard. Sarah West established the kennel to uphold the working qualities and gentle nature of both breeds.

The property includes a pond for water introductions and open fields for obedience and recall training. Past families often mention the calm temperament and natural retrieving drive that make these dogs well-suited to both family life and field work. Owners receive ongoing guidance on health and training throughout their dogs’ growth. New owners are given a detailed care guide covering nutrition, early training and routine health checks.
