About Us

We are a small pack. A husband, wife, daughter, son, cat and three dogs. Better known as The Bearden Pack.

My name is Timothy Bearden, and my wife is Jolene. My daughter is named Johanna and son is Braeden. We live in Beaumont California. Which is about an hour and a half outside of Los Angeles. We are a small hobby breeder of golden retrievers, more specifically English standard golden retrievers with champion lineages that were imported from Europe. Many of our pups have gone on the become Canine Good Citizens, therapy dogs for hospitals, and service dogs.

Our Beginnings in Golden Retrievers

We started after we got a puppy from Jolene’s parents. We were lucky enough to be the first to choose a golden from their first English cream litter. We named her Alice. Both parents are beautiful dogs. Alice achieved her Junior Puppy Championship, as well as her International Championship from IABCA.

We also adopted a companion dog from Serbia named Tina. She is a Champion English Golden Retriever. She got her champion title in Bulgaria. She brings in another line from Europe with a great history of champions. She is our oldest female with a calm temperament. We also showed her here in America where she got her championship from IABCA. In December 2018, she officially retired and is living in a home who takes her on lots of walks near San Francisco. That was one of the hardest decisions I had to make as I had to part with my best friend.

Our Growth

In 2016 we bred for Ember. Ember comes from Tina and sired by Tramin De Bon Matin. We spent a lot of a time and effort to pair the two together. We are happy with our efforts. She has a great structure. Unfortunately in late November, 2017 she had uterine infection that led her being spayed. Another hard decision we had to make. She retired from breeding before she could start.

Also in 2016 we brought Willow into our pack. She comes from a Robin Hood of Glen Sheallag line that I really love. Robin Hood is one of my favorite goldens of all time. She has multiple pups that have gone on to have excellent hips from OFA and PennHIP. Willow I call my happy girl. Her tail is always wagging, and she loves constant attention as well as retrieving. She is now officially retired as of September 11, 2019, and lives in Santa Monica.

Our first sud to grace our home is Glacier. He is a stud that we got from Ukraine as a pup. He has multiple lines that we’ve looked for that comes from Paudell Pure Passion and Erinderry Gaelic Minstrel. Both pair well with Tina and Willow. He did receive his puppy championship from IABCA.

Our latest addition is Jaks. He has an excellent goofy temperament. We have great hopes for his future. He already received a fantastic score from PennHIP.

After researching genealogy of golden retrievers extensively, I feel confident in the lines we have chosen. Each dog we have imported, we have gone through a long list of requirements. We average out the age for the past 5 generations to make sure we are obtaining dogs with a decent chance of living a long happy life. We also request certifications of parents and beyond to make a more educated decision on their health.

Our Future

We have more dog shows to come in our future, especially as we show Jaks. We thought it would be fun to showcase our dogs growth as well as our daughter Johanna and son Braeden. Johanna is eight. Braeden is now 2. Maybe they will become a junior handler.

Currently we have no breeding females. We have kept Alice as a pet. Since we do not have litter plans at the moment, I am taking the time to offer advice on everything Golden Retriever. So feel free to take a look at out Golden Retriever Blog. We hope to make it much bigger.

Lastly, what sets us apart from many breeders is that our dogs and puppies are raised indoors. They are our pack. Our dogs travel with us and are our family. Our pups are an extension of our pack. We use various socializing techniques to hopefully attempt to start our pups on path for a well adjusted temperament. At no time are our dogs or pups raised in kennels. We are dedicated to raising pups in their own room and then a part of our home.
