Red Field Golden Retriever puppies for sale across Canada

Breed history

Golden Retrievers originated in 19th-century Scotland, developed by Sir Dudley Marjoribanks (Lord Tweedmouth) to create the ideal gundog capable of retrieving game on both land and water. Early Goldens displayed a range of shades from light cream to deep red. Over time, breeding diverged into show lines (emphasizing coat, bone, and appearance) and field lines (prioritizing performance, stamina, and trainability). The red or “fox red” coloration is more commonly preserved in field-bred lines, which maintain strong retrieving instincts and athleticism.
