Golden Retrievers are even-tempered, intelligent, and affectionate.

They are playful, child-friendly, and get along well with other pets and strangers.

Who is a Golden Retriever Suitable for

Ideal owners for a golden retriever are families with children, as well as active people who love outdoor activities and long walks.

For homebodies and lovers of a relaxed pace of life, a dog will cause more inconvenience than positive emotions.

Representatives of this breed are quite silent and patient.

These dogs are helpful, which may explain their response to initial training and why they are very popular companion dogs.

What do Golden Retrievers like

Golden Retrievers love to eat, it's their nature. They put anything into their mouth, often not caring at all whether it is edible!

In order to keep your Golden healthy, you need to control this mania to eat everything, and also limit the excessive use of treats as a reward.

Breed problems

Like many breeds, the Golden Retriever can suffer from a variety of inherited eye conditions and hip and knee dysplasia (joint conditions that can cause pain and lead to mobility problems).

Therefore, assessing the condition of the dog's eyes and hips before breeding is important.

Previously, we talked about the characteristics of the Spitz breed.
