BRAGS & TESTIMONIALS
- Jase, The Wonder Pup
​
"Per a recommendation from a friend we visited Sporting Gold Retrievers in search of our next Golden Retriever. As an owner / breeder of our current golden "Bailey", third in the line... [owned Bailey's mother and grandmother], we were looking for another golden that would complement our lifestyle of hunting, camping and family outings. Joe and Kathee recognized our preference for the type of pup that would fit our lifestyle."
​
"There were three male pups left and Jase [our new family member] was not our first choice. Joe identified our predicament and understood what we were looking for in a pup. His recommendation of Jase was spot on! Jase has been an instant hit in our family. Two other dogs accepted him immediately, [Bailey 14 yrs old, Magee 6 yrs old]."
​
"Jase has shown to be a great natural hunter, and we have also invested much time into field training with wonderful results. Jase at 5 months worked a 40 acre field with 5 released pheasants in 50 minutes...result, 5 birds flushed, 6 shots and 5 birds retrieved to hand."
​
"As an owner of now our fourth golden, Jase has been a pure Joy and we could not imagine our lives without him in it."

- Jordy
​
"Joe and Kathee were great to work with… very knowledgeable, professional, and organized. They provided all the details on the dog’s (Jordy’s) lineage, vaccinations, and provided helpful tips on training. Through the process they were informative and great with follow-up."
​
"Jordy is now 8 months old and is doing outstanding in the field and in the house. Great genetics. She has picked up on field training and retrieving very quickly. Fast learner. We have 3 kids from 4-12 years old and Jordy is certainly a part of the family."
​
"We could not be happier with how well Jordy performs in the field and her disposition around people and other dogs. I’d recommend Sporting Gold to anyone and I’ll be back when we are ready for another great dog."

- Mazie Grace
​
"Having just lost our golden of 13+ years, Maggie May, we began a search for the next "love of our life." Fortunately our search included contact with Joe & Kathee Wondergem at Sporting Gold Kennels, located near Peshtigo, Wisconsin. After personally visiting four other kennels in Wisconsin, and email contact with many more, we finally made the four hour trip to Joe & Kathee's kennel."
"We were very impressed with the personal care, clean facilities, and family atmosphere encountered at "Sporting Gold." The number one thing that sold us on Joe & Kathee's approach to raising and providing healthy and happy goldens was how they interviewed to determine if we would be an appropriate match for a golden from their kennel. We feel very fortunate that they decided we would provide a solid, stable, and caring home for one of their goldens."
"Our Mazie Grace is, after two years, now the "love of our life." We were so proud of her at age 1 1/2 of scoring 99 out of 100 on her advanced obedience class; which was the highest score ever given by this instructor. She is the perfect companion for us and our active lifestyle, and we feel blessed to have her in our life! Thank you Joe & Kathee, and Sporing Gold Kennels."
