Dusty

In memory of our very 1st golden stud, Dusty. We bought him from my nephew as a pup. He was with us for 14 years and he totally hooked us on Golden Retrievers. He stayed with us until he passed over the rainbow bridge. My 5 kids were able to have his unconditional love through their growing years.

Sugar

Sugar

In memory of our most amazing 1st breeder mama, Sugar, who we got as a pup. She came from field lines and we could sometimes find her climbing our pine trees looking for birds. She mothered many pups of her own, plus any others that were needing some loving. She retired and remained with us to continue her nurturing with all the pups, and the new mamas, especially, her daughter, Lucy. She continued well into her old age playing with the puppies and giving them snuggles.

Bear

Bear

This is our friendly goofy stud, Bear. He is 11 years old and loves to think he is still king of our little ranch. He is our first European Golden. We got him when he was 9 months old. He had such a beautiful coat. He and Lucy became fast friends and were great buddies. Bear has never really outgrown being a puppy. He still loves his toys and continues to pack them around in his mouth. He would fetch all day if we could keep up with him. He still perks his ears up when he sees a ball in one of our hands.

Lucy

Lucy

In memory of our sweet Lucy. We kept Lucy to take over her mama’s breeding job. We were hoping that she would inherit her mom’s nurturing skills. She did not disappoint. She was an excellent mama. There wasn’t a day that she didn’t come running to greet us after we came home from our normal running around. She would howl and whine to each of us. She remained with us and lived to be 11. How we miss the welcoming howl of Lucy.

Meet our Family

We are the Wilding family. Ali and Blaine and our 5 children. We live on 7 acres outside of Firth, Idaho with the Snake River running just beyond our property. We cross the river bridge almost daily, which is where I came up with the name for our kennel, Over the River Goldens. We have several Goldens and a Doberman, who loves to help with the little pups. We have a few horses, sometimes cows, 2 cats and some chickens. We enjoy doing things as a family such as bowling, canoeing and kayaking, horse riding, going to rodeos, most anything we can do together. When the kids all come home, so do their dogs. Blaine is a pharmacist and I am a stay-at-home mom. I taught school for 6 years until our 2nd child was born. I am also a hobby photographer, which I use to full advantage taking photos of all our dogs and sweet pups and now beautiful grandchildren as well. Our oldest daughter, Jordyn is married with 3 children and lives in Utah with a golden of their own. Our 2nd child, Tyson, lives across the river a couple of miles away and has a Blue Heeler. He works on a cattle ranch and has joined us in our breeding business. Jace, our 3rd, lives with his wife, little family and 3 dogs and a cat in Missouri, while attending Vet school. He will be done in May and hopefully coming home to Idaho to start his career. We took a 10 year wait and then adopted our last 2 children as newborns. Keenan graduated from high school a year ago and is living on his own not too far away. Kamri is our last child and is a sophomore in high school.

Our Golden Journey

We started our golden journey when Jace was about 18 months old. My sister’s son was selling goldens to earn money for his church mission. They had one puppy left and we decided to take him. After getting our sweet Dusty, our hearts were hooked. When my older boys were young teens, we began thinking about letting our boys earn money for their missions as well. This began our step into the breeding world. We added a couple of female goldens and began researching all we needed to know. The boys worked hard helping with the puppies and a few years later finished their missions and continued their grown up lives. Blaine and I took over the dogs when they left home and decided to continue the breeding program seeing that we still had 2 youngsters that still needed raising and whatever that was to bring about. We began building upon our breeding program and gaining knowledge from helpful breeders that were willing to share. So, here we are, close to 15 years and 17 Golden Retrievers later. We want to share our love for Goldens with others and are excited to bring happy and healthy puppies to many families.
