Golden Retriever Dog Breed —
If you're looking for a great family pet or a loyal friend, you will find what you're looking for in a golden retriever. I can't say enough about this breed. I had a golden, Delilah, and she was the sweetest pup I've ever known. These dogs are great for families. They are happy, energetic and loving. True people lovers, they are great with kids. I would not recommend these dogs as watch dogs though. They may alert you with a bark, but they're more likely to show a thief the family jewels rather than wrestle him to the ground. Goldens are very intelligent dogs, they learn quickly and are eager to please. They are often used as working dogs because of their intelligence and "people skills." They grow from a fuzzy plump puppy into a medium size dog. They do require a lot of coat care and are prone to hip dysplasia. If you wont be home all day and don't enjoy going for long walks or runs a golden may not be for you. One word of caution....pure bred goldens are often inbred, which can result in illness. These dogs are fantastic and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
