Golden retriever information
The Golden Retriever is a
sturdy, medium-large sized dog. The skull is broad and the
muzzle is straight, tapering slightly with a well defined stop.
The nose is black or a brownish black. The teeth meet in a
scissors bite. The medium to large eyes are dark brown. The
relatively short ears hang down close to the cheeks. When pulled
forward the tip of the ear should just cover the eye. The tail
is thick at the base with feathering along the underside.
Dewclaws may be removed. The water-resistant coat is dense with
a firm, straight, or wavy outer coat. There is an untrimmed
feathering on the underbelly, back of the legs, front of the
neck and underside of the tail. Coat color comes in cream to a
rich golden.
Temperament
These are
lovable, well-mannered, intelligent dogs with a great charm.
They are easily trained, and always patient and gentle with
children. Charming, devoted and self-assured, they are a popular
family dog. Energetic and loving, Golden Retrievers enjoy
pleasing their masters, so obedience training can be very
rewarding. They excel in competitions. Friendly with everyone,
including other dogs, the Golden Retriever has very little, if
any, guarding instincts. While unlikely to attack, Goldens make
good watchdogs, loudly signaling a stranger's approach. This
breed needs to be around people who display leadership to be
happy. The Golden Retriever may become destructive and/or
high-strung, over-exuberant and distractible if he is lacking in
daily mental and physical exercise. Be sure to remain this dogs
firm, but calm, confident, consistent pack leader to avoid
behavioral issues. Some of the Golden's talents are hunting,
tracking, retrieving, narcotics detection, agility, competitive
obedience, and performing tricks. These dogs also love to swim.

Needs
The Golden
Retriever
needs to be taken on
a daily, brisk, long walk, jog or
run alongside you when you
bicycle, where the dog is made to heel beside or behind the
person holding the lead, as instinct tells a dog that the leader
leads the way and that leader needs to be the human.
In
addition, they like to retrieve balls and other toys. Be sure to
exercise this dog well to avoid hyper activity.
This breed will do okay in an
apartment if sufficiently exercised. They are moderately active
indoors and will do best with at least a medium to large yard.
Grooming
The smooth, medium-haired
double coat is easy to groom. Comb and brush with a firm bristle
brush, paying particular attention to the dense undercoat. Dry
shampoo regularly, but bathe only when necessary. This breed is
an average shedder.
Golden
retriever Origins
Originating in the Scottish Highlands in the late 1800s, the
Golden Retriever was developed by Lord Tweedmouth, by crossing
the original yellow Flat-Coated Retriever, with the now extinct
Tweed Water Spaniel. He later crossed in the bloodhound, Irish
Setter, and more Tweed Water Spaniel. The dogs were called the
Golden Flat-Coat and only later were they given the name Golden
Retriever. The Golden Retriever is one of the most popular
breeds known today, not only as family companions but for
obedience competitions, hunting and tracking, as a bird dog on
both land and in the water, narcotics detection, service dog for
the disabled, a guide for the blind and as a therapy dog. The
Golden Retriever was first recognized by the AKC in 1925.
