About Us – The Journey Behind Joyful Tails

Joyful Tails, our journey began many years ago with a deep-rooted passion for the breeds. The Vonns have always admired the strength, intelligence, loyalty, and protective instincts that make our puppies so exceptional. However, it wasn’t until we welcomed our first Golden Retriever, Maximus, into our lives that we truly understood the profound impact these incredible dogs can have on a family.
Maximus wasn’t just a pet to us—he was a protector, a confidant, and a loyal companion who enriched our lives in ways we could never have imagined. His presence in our home was a constant source of comfort, security, and love. Maximus displayed an extraordinary blend of strength and gentleness, and it was through him that we came to appreciate the true essence of a puppy.
As we watched Maximus grow and develop into the magnificent dog he was, we realized something that changed our lives forever: Puppies are so much more than just pets. They are family members, protectors, and life-long companions. Maximus inspired us to share the love and bond we had with him by dedicating ourselves to the care and breeding of these remarkable dogs. This passion led to the founding of Joyful Tails.
Over the years, we’ve worked tirelessly to refine our breeding practices and ensure that every puppy we produce embodies the very best traits of the puppy breeds. Our goal is not only to breed beautiful dogs, but to raise puppies with exceptional temperament, health, and intelligence. Each of our puppies are carefully selected for its superior lineage, and we take great pride in our commitment to the highest standards of breeding.
At Joyful Tails, we understand that raising a puppy is a long-term commitment, and we are dedicated to making sure that our puppies are well-prepared for their future homes. That’s why we raise our puppies in a warm, loving, and home-based environment. Each puppy is given individual care and attention from day one, ensuring they develop into well-rounded, social, and confident dogs.
We are more than breeders—we are caretakers, educators, and passionate advocates for our puppy breeds. Our mission is to connect each puppy with a family that understands the responsibility of owning a puppy and is prepared to provide a loving, supportive environment. When you bring home a puppy from Joyful Tails, you’re not just getting a dog; you’re gaining a life-long companion that will become a cherished member of your family.
We are proud of the legacy we’ve built and the families we’ve helped create. Our commitment to excellence, health, and care drives everything we do, and we’re excited to continue sharing our love for puppies with the world. Whether you’re looking for a loyal protector, a playful companion, or a loving family member, we are here to help you find your perfect puppy.
Our Vision
As responsible breeders, we provide genetic and health guarantees. Our puppies are happy, healthy, loving dogs who are always excited to meet new people. They won’t shy away from visitors. We care about our dogs and the homes they will eventually go to, so we encourage you to spend time with the puppies and their parents when you visit. We can also guide you in caring for and training your puppy, and we’re always available to help after you take your puppy home.
Our Mission
Our mission is to breed for excellence in health, intelligence, temperament and hypo-allergenic qualities.
We can access extensive bloodlines and carefully select our puppies’ parents who possess the best qualities of their breed. This ensures that our puppies are suitable for all types of families, first-time pet owners, seniors and those looking for assistance dogs for autism, post-traumatic stress disorder, multiple sclerosis, diabetes and various other disabilities and mental health conditions.
