Wolki Golden Retriever
Albury, NSW
Newborn litter
Hi, I'm Hannah W.
It all started in 2016 when a few family members adopted Mini Schnauzers. I was amazed how how versatile they were for such small dogs. They were happy to go on long runs and also happy to sit on the couch all day. They are a very healthy breed of dog and highly intelligent and loyal. Once I started researching dog…

Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
We do early scent introduction and ENS (Early neurological stimulation) to help with puppy development. Our puppies are enriched with a range of sensory play activities. Our puppies get to see and meet other animals. Our puppies will be introduced to grooming, nail trims and baths.
Health
Our puppies will all have had their first vaccination, microchip, and are wormed every 2 weeks before coming home with you. All our puppies will have passed their health check at the vet before coming home with you. Any health or behaviour concerns will be explained to you in writing. We are proud of the high quality…
Home environment
Our puppies are born and raised in our family home. Our dogs live in a weather protected, temperature controlled area. Our puppies are raised on our rural property. We provide a stimulating environment for our puppies with age-appropriate enrichment activities. We pride ourselves on providing our puppies with a range…

Additional Tests
Wolki Golden Retriever conducts 7 additional tests available for the Golden Retriever.
Genetic TestCongenital eye malformations in Golden Retrievers result from a mutation of the SIX6 gene. These malformations can present as a range of different eye conditions, ranging from poor vision to blindness in one or both eyes. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying the affected gene.
- Genetic Test
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a congenital skin disease that causes fragile skin, blisters, ulceration, and skin scarring. There is a DNA test available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
- Genetic Test
This is a disease affecting the spinal cord of older dogs, initially causing wobbliness and eventually hindlimb paralysis. It can affect a wide range of breeds. There is now a DNA test that can indicated if a breeding dog is carrying this disease.
- Genetic Test
This is a serious genetic skin disease that causes flaky dry skin and footpad problems. It can occur in many breeds but is fairly common in Golden Retrievers. There is a DNA test to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this disease and could pass it on to their puppies.
- Genetic Test
Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI), also known as ‘brittle bone disease’, is an inherited disease in both humans and animals, causing bone fragility and fracturing. As it is a genetic disease, breeding parents can be tested to ensure it is not passed onto their puppies.
- Genetic Test
Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) in dogs is a type of genetic eye disease causing deterioration of the retina and eventually, blindness. There are a variety of sub-types of PRA, which can occur in various breeds. There are various DNA tests available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
- Genetic Test
Skeletal Dysplasia is an inherited form of dwarfism which causes the leg bones to grow much shorter than is proportional for the body. Affected legs will be short and slightly bowed outwards. Often the forelimbs are more affected than the hindlimbs, which can make the condition more difficult to spot in subtle cases. There is a DNA test available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying this condition.

About the Breeder
A little about us
Wolki Puppies is an ethical dog breeding program located in Albury, NSW Australia. Every breeding dog is placed with a permanent guardian family and comes back once a year to raise a litter. This way, every dog gets treated well and is raised in a family environment, not in a kennel.
Why we got involved in breeding
I have a passion for breeding dogs and after learning about the dog breeding industry and how poor the practices are, I become increasing passionate about doing things differently and offering transparency to families so they know where their puppy is coming from.
