Two names, one family, one standard.

We're Judy and Doug Lowery — parents of eight, grandparents now, and Golden Retriever people to the core. Our program started in the Montana Rockies under the name Montana Mist Goldens. In 2015 our family moved to Salem, Oregon, and many Oregon families have found us here ever since as Oregon Mist Goldens.

Our breeding dogs live as family pets — with us or with hand-picked Guardian Home families — never in a kennel. Litters are born and raised under the Montana Mist Goldens program, so that's where you'll find every current and upcoming puppy.

What you get either way is the same thing: thoughtfully chosen parents, real health testing, puppies raised underfoot in a home, and a breeder who answers the phone for the life of your dog.

Found us on Google as Oregon Mist Goldens? You're in the right place. Our puppy listings, waitlist, and application all live on our Montana Mist Goldens site.

What goes into every puppy

Raised with care from day one

A great family dog doesn't happen by accident. Here's what we put into every litter before your puppy ever comes home.

Health-tested parents

Sires and dams are screened for hips, elbows, heart, eyes, and genetic conditions before they're ever bred.

Family homes, not kennels

Our adult dogs live as pets with us or with Guardian Home families, so their puppies inherit settled, confident temperaments.

Early socialization

Puppies grow up in a busy home — people, kids, sounds, and new experiences — with a head start on potty training.

Premium nutrition

We feed and recommend Life's Abundance — the same holistic program our own dogs have thrived on for years.

Vet-checked

Every puppy goes home with a veterinary exam and a clean bill of health.

Backed for life

A written health guarantee — and a breeder you can call with questions for your dog's whole life. Read it here.

Good questions

Frequently asked

Are Oregon Mist Goldens and Montana Mist Goldens the same breeder?

Yes. We're the same family and the same program. Oregon Mist Goldens is how many Oregon families find us here in Salem; our litters, waitlist, and puppy application are all managed under Montana Mist Goldens.

Is there a litter now, or a litter coming?

We don't currently have a litter available. Join our waitlist and we'll contact you when our next litter is planned.

Where are the puppies born and raised?

Our puppies are born and raised in a home under the Montana Mist Goldens program, with our parent dogs living as family pets rather than in kennels. We'll tell you exactly where your litter is being raised when we talk.

Can my puppy come home to Oregon?

Yes — we place puppies with families throughout Oregon and the Pacific Northwest. We'll go over pickup and delivery options for your area during your Zoom interview.

How much is a puppy, and how do deposits work?

Puppies are $3,500, with a $500 deposit to reserve your spot. Current pricing and deposit details are always kept up to date on our pricing page.

What comes with my puppy?

A veterinary health check, a written health guarantee, and ongoing support from us for your dog's lifetime. See our puppy care page for the details.

What is an English Cream Golden Retriever?

English Cream (or “European”) Golden Retrievers are Goldens from English and European bloodlines. They're known for lighter cream coats, a blockier head, a sturdier build, and a famously calm, gentle temperament — wonderful with kids.
