Mattiaci Golden Retrievers: Adults and Puppies Started on Training:
Shown Above: "Casey" working at a "Kids read to Dogs" Program at the Drummond Library.
We occasionally have dogs or puppies that we are growing out and starting on training. We always have inquiries from homes not
interested in the young puppy stages. These puppies are sleeping through the night, are crate trained and are started on housetraining. With their temperament & activity level,
they would make excellent therapy dogs with the training and manners they have.
Shipping and transport are additional costs unless picked up in person at Mattiaci.
As soon as a home we have been corresponding with, tells us they have sent the contract and payment, we take that dog off of our
page. Started Puppies and dogs typically range between $4,500 and $10,000
We occasionally have adults age 3-6 that were to be or were show dogs that also have a lot of training and work into them, but decide to spay/neuter and are available to a pet home. They are $8,500-10,000.
Transport or cargo shipping cost can be anywhere from $700-$1,400 for an adult depending on size,
timing, distance, and mode of transport.
Several of our goldens do Therapy work with their owners. For those interested in therapy work, David Frei has a great interview on therapy dogs: Davi Frei, advocate for Therapy Dogs
David also has a great book called "Angel By My Side."
Another great therapy and working dog resource is: Intermountain Therapy Animals
We do not sell dogs to homes wanting a service dog who plan to "self train." An established professional trainer is required. We are very picky as we've sold to many
homes in the past for this purpose and know what works, and what homes we will not sell a dog to.
All of our puppies are raised as our pets and show dogs: weekly grooming, basic weekly training
and good manners. They travel well on car rides and are very well socialized. We do puppy daycare and boarding. They have met several new dogs and get along
with new dogs very well.
Our older dogs & puppies go on 30-45 minute runs together with us most evenings, and play and swim on our creek.
We do not prefer ground transport for puppies or dogs if it involves more than 1 day of travel. If you do go this route, we will only accept a dedicated pet transport
service, and not a random or U-SHIP person. A person flying with the dog or puppy is always my first preference as no one likes to travel for days on end when you can
get there quickly and safely in the same day and living animals are no different.
Our "puppy and dog questionnaire" and "application" is very simple. To be seriously considered for one of our puppies, tell
us about your home for dogs. We want to know about our potential homes to make sure our puppies are a good match.
We have lifelong relationships and are always available with our buyers. Specifically we want to know:
- your previous and current dog history
- What city, state do you live in?
- what is your background in dogs?
- what kind of a home do you have for dogs?
- are you looking for a male or a female
- will you be using nanny transport service, want to meet at the airport, or come to us in person?
Since Covid, we no longer do tours of our private residence. All paperwork is done prior to arrival, puppy or dog pick up is very brief at my property. I'm a partial caretaker for my
high-risk 85 YO father.

We are just starting to be able to cargo ship again since Covid. Current transport choices are:
- cargo shipping on Alaska Airlines.
- You can fly in on any airline, then fly out on AK AIR if the dog doesn't fit in a bag under the seat. AK Air charges $100/dog per way in cabin or $150 excess baggage.
- I can meet buyers at the airport if they have same-day turnaround flights. I have in cabin bags to loan if immediately mailed them back.
- Nanny transports are available depending on my schedule, flights to Seattle and Achorage are easiest and most readily available from me.
- You can drive yourself, or have a friend or family member travel to get your dog for you.
** For ground transport in the hot summer months or where AK Air doesn't fly
** For in cabin Puppy Nanny Service, we do our own flights. All flights connect through Seattle, WA. Boston to San Francisco/Oakland/Los Angeles CA airports,
and Alaska.
