About New England Goldens
CS Golden Adoption Services www.NewEnglandGoldens.com 127 North Lowell Rd. Windham, NH 03087 About Us CS Golden Adoption Services, operator of www.NewEnglandGoldens.com, is licensed by the State of New Hampshire to place Golden Retriever puppies with families throughout New England. Since 2008, we have partnered with trusted breeders who share our commitment to healthy, well-cared-for dogs. For more than sixteen years, we have worked with the same proven lineages and pedigrees, known for their health, longevity, and temperament—as reflected in our many customer reviews.
We give New England families the opportunity to meet available Golden Retriever puppies in person at our Windham, New Hampshire location. This offers a simpler, safer alternative to lengthy breeder searches and waitlists, paying remotely for a puppy they have not met, risking financial loss, or receiving a puppy that is sick or has been poorly cared for. We regularly post current photos of available Golden Retriever puppies and their parents at www.NewEnglandGoldens.com. At eight weeks old, the puppies enter our care for routine training and health and temperament evaluations. Our team and licensed veterinarians verify their health and confirm that their vaccinations are current. We do not require deposits. Families need only complete a home-setting questionnaire demonstrating that they can provide a suitable forever home and confirm a date and time to meet the puppies at our Windham, New Hampshire location.
