About Us
Our recent litter has gone to their new homes!  See Puppies tab for pictures!
               
  Welcome to Riverbound Goldens in beautiful New Hampshire, home of two family generations of Golden Retrievers.  Norman and Sheila Upson live in Merrimack, while daughter Christina Bossart and her family live in nearby Weare.

Our lovely Goldens enrich our lives and are first and foremost part of our family.  They live inside with us at all times, spoiled with love and attention.  Our first golden, Max, joined our family in 1971 and now we currently have four.  We bred our first litter of golden retriever puppies in the summer of 1984!

Although our goldens have a combination of stunning coat colors ranging from creamy white to a medium gold, their gentle temperament is what draws us most to this special breed.  We carefully consider health, temperament, and the breed standards in our hobby breeding, with preference toward the English-type.
 
While all our goldens love naps on the couch or a long walk, their passions include running, swimming, and playing with the kids.  Christina's 11+ acres offer a wide open field surrounded on two sides by the Piscataquog River, claiming the frequent touch of swift golden paws...
