Introduction To Golden Retriever

If you're thinking of adding a dog to your family, you may be wondering which breed you should pick. After all, there are hundreds of breeds with different temperaments, attitudes and energy levels. Plus, you want to make sure that your fuzzy addition is compatible with all the people and pets in your household. If you haven't thought of getting a golden retriever, you may want to. These dogs are extremely mild-mannered and the ideal companion for people of all ages.

Golden Retriever Energy Levels

Golden retrievers are highly athletic dogs who love to race, walk, play and exercise on a daily basis. In fact, the whole reason they were bred was to retrieve shot waterfowl on hunting trips. So of course, they enjoy a nice swim every now and then. Therefore, it's vital for them to have an appropriate amount of exercise, whether it's your backyard or the park. Otherwise, failing to exercise them can lead to behavioural problems.

The high energy levels of Goldens are infectious and will definitely help you achieve and sustain a healthier lifestyle. This is particularly true during the first few years of your dog's life as they are most energetic then. Thus, whether you need an enthusiastic boost to your life or just a smile, a golden retriever may just be the perfect dog for you!

Golden Retriever Intelligence

In addition, the retrievers are extremely smart, more so than most other breeds. Considering that they were bred for the recovery of waterfowl, these dogs had to work independently and from a distance from their owners. At the same time, they had to be conscious of where their master was and still be able to follow orders. To this day, these golden retrievers are still very capable of completing complex tasks and obeying remote orders.

Since they already have instinctive intelligence, the goldens are easy to train. Plus, they live to please their owners, so treat, praise and rewards are a must for their entire training. You can train them to do tricks, but their natural abilities include tracking, directing, searching and rescuing.

Sociability of Golden Retrievers

When you get a puppy, one of the first things you will need to consider will be how well it can blend into your family. Are they going to get along with everyone? Are they going to be aggressive towards your children? Luckily, the goldens are very mild-mannered and have been bred with a friendly disposition. They absolutely love people and they're going to get along with every member of your family.

Goldens are going to get along perfectly fine with any pets you already have. Honestly, the only thing you may have to worry about is that your puppy may be a little too sweet. Introduce them slowly as they grow to ensure that your other pets have time to adapt to your new playful, loving fluff ball. 

Companionship

Goldens are trustworthy friends and will always be by your side, whether you're in the kitchen or the shower. So be prepared to give a lot of petting! Even after a long day, they will still be more than ready to cuddle up on the couch. They're also the ideal travel partner since they love to explore. 

So, regardless of your lifestyle and personal preferences, there's a golden retriever right there to experience anything with you. Their average life span will be 10 to 12 years, giving you plenty of years to create memories together, snuggle and go on a lot of adventures.
