All about GoldensGolden Retrievers…so many shades, so little time! Golden Retrievers come in various colors and shades of gold from blonde to red. The shade in the middle, golden, is most popular in the U.S. The British have affection for the blondes. What many people may not realize is that Goldens will usually darken a bit as they grow and generally have their “true” coat color before they are a year old. If you want to have a good idea as to what shade of gold your puppy will be as an adult, you will need to check the ears. Regardless of the shade, Goldens are big, beautiful, muscular and strong! Goldens come with a personality like no other! The term ‘velcro dog’ started with this breed. They love people, large and small. Because Goldens are such people-oriented dogs, it’s important that they live WITH their owners. A Golden relegated to the backyard while his family is in the house is an unhappy one. They love to go places and discover new things and meet new people. Yes, a Golden’s job is to make sure everyone they meet is their new best friend. As you delve into this All about Goldens section, we hope it helps you make a good choice on whether or not this breed is right for your family! CAREFUL! Goldens are addictive. They steal your heart, and it is so very hard to own only one. Golden History |
