Golden Retriever - Top 10 Facts

[@GMC80]

My Mom used to breed goldens when I was a kid. I remember when I was 10 years old, a litter of puppies were born and one pup stood out from the others. A hyperactive fur-ball with distinctive white markings on his chest and front paw. I begged and pleaded with my Mom to let me keep and raise him.. Eventually she buckled and said yes, but only I if took full responsibility for him. My boy and I grew up together, I learned how to be responsible through looking after him. I trained him, worked to pay for all his requirements like food, toys, vaccinations, medical bills. Some of the best times I've had in my life, I shared with him. One late September evening after 19 amazing years together, my boy laid on my lap for the very last time, passing away later into the night. I can confirm that every fact mentioned in this video is true, at least from my experience. Golden retrievers are an exceptional breed with great versatility. If you're lucky enough to be loved by a golden retriever, you're lucky enough.

“They have an average life expectancy of 10 to 13 years, when raised in the right hands”... your dog truly is blessed

[@MorristheMinor]

@@mark_fn4762 My old friend passed away last week at 14. He really was 'Golden', he gave me love and understanding then I had clinic depression caused by workplace bullying and he stayed with my Dad when he was dying of cancer. He didn't growl or bark when the nurses came to treat him but simply lay by his side and refused to move. His final act of love was pass away under his own steam, to save us the guilt of taking him to the vet. Farewell, old friend, I hope we meet again some day.

We have had golden retrievers since we first married 35 years ago. They are indeed incredible pets. When I look back over my life thus far I remember each of them...their constant love and devotion, the joy they bring each day and their desire to HAVE FUN. You will treasure each moment, each passing year and mourn their departure...as they truly are and will be your best friend. So to Maxwell, Touchdown Jimmie, Lady Sophia and Beau....I have treasured each day! Love you guys! Hope to play ball with you all again some day :)

I've had Golden's for 20-plus years. Lost our last golden in January at the age of 15. You could leave him in the kitchen with a t-bone steak on the table and he wouldn't touch it.Little kids could crawl on him and put their face in his dog bowl while he was eating and it wouldn't bother him. Now I have three great Pyrenees. So different. But love them every bit as much. I asked my wife who put the pork away. Our great Pyrenees put six away while we were in the room and not paying attention. My wife caught are great Pyrenees tiptoeing around the top of the kitchen table cleaning all the plates off and not knocking a single glass over. Goldens are the best, great Pyrenees are the best, Dobermans are the best, just love your dog and you will have the best.

Super with kids. Kids love them and they will behave if your children take them walking . They are very tolerant of young children.They love to eat but are fine with a small breakfast of kibble maybe some cooked oatmeal. Then a more substantial dinner. Meat , kibble mix with some leftover cooked veggies. NO onion of course .Mine had nice neat eating manners. They need to be trained not to take things out off the kitchen , or at a picnic, like most dogs.

I had a Golden girl for 7 1/2 years. Went before her time due to bloat. That can happen with goldens. She was a great dog. My wife and daughter were protected by her, and she was always happy to be with us. I really miss that big red furball. And everything said in the video is correct.

[@calkelpdiver]

@M.E.B Edits, we got her from a want ad listing for puppies. The people we got her from were not breeders, but both parents were AKC registered though. I didn't register my dog because I couldn't show or breed her, she had hip dysplasia on one side. It didn't matter though, she was a great dog. One time while I was on a business trip my daughter got sick (Croup & Stridor) at night and she came in and woke up my wife. My wife took our daughter to the ER. Our dog saved my daughters life. Again, I miss that big red furball very much.

Watching this with my golden boy on my lap. (he still thinks he’s a lap dog) He’s our first family dog, and I cannot begin to express the joy he’s brought to our family. He’s amazing with our children, he’s so loving and gentle, but he definitely does hate to be alone. Thankfully, I get to spend most days at home with him. He loves to find, carry, and has even been known to stash socks all over the house! I couldn’t find anyone’s socks for the longest time.. I just started finding piles of socks hidden in the couch, in the back of his kennel.. and under his dog bed! He’s so funny; I can’t help but laugh! He has a huge personality, and he’s still a pup! (8-months-old) it’s obvious why this majestic breed is a family favorite. I couldn’t imagine doing life without him by our side. I’m someone who has never wanted a dog of their own, and never loved a dog. A golden retriever changed those feelings almost immediately! Remy, we love you, sweet boy. We rescued you, but you captured our hearts. ❤️🐶

[@fionasteel2221]

We rescued one at 11 mths old and he is an absolute joy. Such a gorgeous breed.

[@michiganmama562]

@@fionasteel2221 They’re the absolute best! Literal angels. And so, so beautiful! My boy is still very timid, like he gets scared if someone walks up to him too fast; or if we get too loud playing; or rough-housing. He will tuck away and hide. It makes me wonder what he’s been through before we found him. He’s almost 2 now, and still show’s obvious signs of abuse. It’s so sad. One time, he was chewing a shoe, and out of frustration I raised my hand to give him a little spat, and he cried out. I didn’t even actually do it! It ruined me. I don’t even know what I was thinking. There is a no punishment policy with a zero tolerance. I think if someone hurt him, or scared him again; I would lose it! And obviously, positive reinforcement is far more effective with any dog. He has no idea why he’s being punished! I redirect; and give lots of praise for the good things he does, and redirect and praise when he’s doing something he shouldn’t be. Pretty easy! He’s my baby. I’m so happy you get to experience the same love and joy!

[@Slowburn13]

Watching this video with my golden baby laying beside me❤ Last November my girlfriends little sister passed away, she’s never experienced a loved ones death before until that point & they were very close. Seeing her become defeated by grief & swallowed by depression, my heart would ache for her. There was very little I could do & nothing I could say to help or to relieve her emotional suffering. I suggested we get her dream dog, a golden retriever. Her face lit up, she instantly began her search for the perfect pup. We searched for a week, then started to have doubts after no one got back to us. We decided that if we got a call back, then it’s meant to be. The phone rang & we drove 3hrs to meet the whole litter to assure a good match, and as soon as we walked in the puppies rushed to greet us. It’s almost like the dog we wanted knew we were coming for him. He patiently waited for his siblings to subside, he walked up to us, sat in front of us, & then rested his paw on my girlfriends leg. A true perfect match, he chose us too. & He was on clearance! We decided on the name Steve (my girlfriend thinks it’s so funny when animals have people names). And Steve is the best dog I’ve ever had. He brought back my girlfriends smile, he’s gotten us through our darkest moments, he’s a little stupid & dopey, but it suits him. He is the sweetest, biggest baby that’s scared of everything. He’s a dog, but he’s our son. I would take a bullet for him. I know I shouldn’t have a favorite animal, but he’s definitely my favorite. I don’t think I’ll ever have another pup like him again. I don’t think my girlfriend would have made so much progress had we not found him. So thank you Steve, we needed/need you❤

I had a Golden who looked after herself while I went to work. I found she was perfectly happy in my good sized fenced yard. I walked her for an hour each morning and she settled right down. Then we had a shorter walk or a game after I got home. Then dinner. They love to eat. Never had a major problem with my dog. Although she would take off to a creek or pond an jump in if she got off the leash. Even in Winter. Hopeless watchdogs, too friendly. My dog loved the beach would go in the surf even. I had Casey for 16 wonderful years. Now I have a Border Collie that needs even more exercise in fact she is quite a handful to keep up with. Smart dog . Fast runners. Loves a ride in the car.They are best on a farm. A friend gave me the Border collie puppy from her litter. Get pet health insurance because they aren't as resilient as a Golden.They are smart and will learn anything with careful training.Also too friendly to be a guard dog.

Dogs bark for different reasons. My sister's last golden, Toby, used to bound up to the fence and and bark loudly two or three times with his tail wagging wildly. He was just excited to meet and when you came through the gate he couldn't make up his mind if he wanted to get patted or run around wildly. They're a gentle and apparently the breed that's least likely to bite you. They can be exuberant and yes, they're fairly big. If they want to play and bump into you, you'll know it.
