About Us
We have wonderful Golden Retrievers. Our sires are Huck and Bleu. Our females are Lolli, Polly and Cassie. Our Goldens all come out of AKC championship bloodlines. Huck is particularly notable with 19 championships in the last 4 generations of his pedigree, and most notable, he has all champions on the male side for several generations.
Obviously, we like raising and selling puppies. We have been doing it for over two decades.
Here is how we like to sell them. After the puppies are born, we make an appointment with you to come and look at our 8 week old puppies. We may require a deposit. You drive out into rural Bastrop County to our 19th century homestead. You walk into a very old barn and meet a herd of puppies, clamoring for your attention. We can tell you that we have sold to hundreds of families in this way. This is the best way. We find it is as exciting as it is joyful. It is a profound way to choose a puppy, or as some say, to let the puppy choose you. Today there was a police officer laughing and rolling in the grass to play with his new puppy. Also, today there was a grandmother quietly sitting in the pine shavings to let a puppy lay on her lap. And last night, there were three kids who were literally knee deep in puppies and each was holding a puppy tight and with a beaming smile saying, “But I want this one.” Each has their own way of choosing a puppy.

St Lytton Goldens has a small breeding program that breeds between different unrelated strains of pure-breed AKC Golden Retrievers. We do not strictly 'line-bred' but generally breed our own lines of females and import lines of beautiful males with championships in their bloodlines. For example, our big male, Huck, is an American Golden from the East coast. Bailey, the Sire of our Dams, was a English cream out of the Ukraine of Russia. We have kept a continuous line of stock since the early 1990's. We breed by selecting first, of course, for conformation and ‘light golden’ color, but more importantly, for the sweet, gentle temperament of "wanting to please" that is the hall mark of the Golden Retriever.
St Lytton Goldens' puppies are proven to be genetically superior. Our breeding program of crossing two, dissimilar or unrelated strains creates ‘Hybrid-vigor’ where the best genes ‘come out’ or are expressed as dominant.
We fell in love with Golden Retrievers as a family because of their wonderfully sweet personality and quiet temperament. And if you have handled Goldens, you know that the 'stoic' nature of Goldens seem to project confidence in the ones who handle them.
They are an important part of our family and are well loved and cared for. We live out in the county where our Goldens love to run and play - they enjoy playing ball over and over, going for walks, and swimming in the creek, not to mention chasing wild rabbits.
