Golden Retriever Puppy

The Golden Retriever was developed in Britain during the 1800's. The man responsible for this illustrious breed, Lord Tweedmouth, wanted a dog that was loyal, kind, spirited, and energetic. He also wanted a dog with a love for water and the ability to retrieve. Golden Retrievers are the embodiment of beauty and brains.
These Dogs are justifiably one of the most popular choices as a pet for kids and the family. They are gentle and understanding around children, but still playful and affectionate enough to have a huge amount of fun with adults and teenagers. Goldie's also make a excellent guard dog playing the role of both good cop/ bad cop routine beautifully, being great around the kids but also seemingly tough enough to keep unwanted guest's out.
Being a retriever they love the water so with that being said this is a great way to get your dog alot of the exercise required, but remember don't over do it as like the labrador this will be tiring for the dog. The Golden Retriever requires daily and thorough brushing with a firm bristle brush. They should be dry shampooed regularly, and bathed only when absolutely necessary with a mild shampoo. They are prone to hip dysplasia, cataracts, and skin allergies. It is important to not over feed the Golden Retriever, as they have a tendency to gain weight.
