Golden Retriever Puppy Pics and Info: Pictures and information about the Golden Retriever Dog breed


Cute Golden Retriever Puppy Golden retrievers are large, strong dogs that have a reputation as being one of the smartest breeds available. Though they are known for their performance in competitions and their many different tricks, few people realize that Golden retrievers are actually some of the best house pets around.

As puppies, Golden retrievers are beautiful additions to any family. They look a little bit like a Labrador retriever in their body makeup, but the difference comes with the coat. While labs have a characteristically short coat, Golden Retrievers are known for their long, flowing locks of hair. Many of these puppies are golden as indicated by their name. Some come in a good looking brown color, though.

Golden retrievers are known for their ability to get along well with children. They have a playful nature that comes in handy when dealing with each member of your family. Above that, they have an ability to focus on tasks that can rival any other puppy breed. When you bring home a Golden retriever, training must take place immediately. Their playful and rambunctious nature can be reigned in quickly and easily, but training must take place. With an easy series of commands, one can teach a Golden retriever to be both playful and calm, depending upon the occasion.

The Golden Retriever has few, if any, enemies. Unlike other dog breeds, Golden Retrievers don’t show aggression towards people or other dogs, even as puppies. Golden retriever puppies learn to share their space and although they make nice watch dogs, they will never attack. This is especially true of those Golden retrievers who are socialized with people and other dogs at a very young age.

As a general rule, Golden retrievers are extremely healthy. The majority of their problems are simply cosmetic, although certain things can get worse with age. Golden retrievers are known to have failing eyesight as they grow in age. Everyday exercise can help this puppy breed stay healthy and stop heart problems that they might otherwise suffer from.

A Golden retriever is an incredible pet if it’s trained appropriately. Though you might not want to enter the puppy in any competitions, it can learn enough things to be an effective member of a family. House training is especially easy, as the dog responds well to praise.

  10. not only that a golden retriever r lovable sweet and playful they all so r very quick learners and good hunting dogs and and they will alert u when someone is passing on a bike or on a 4 wheeler

  11. I have a golden girl. My first. Everything you printed about the breed is so true. She is a joy..wonderful with children and grown ups. So easily trained..She was HB in 2 weeks. Never had an accident in my house. because she is so good she is the most popular dog in the neighborhood. Yes she does shed..But I have a good vac..and don’t mind at all.she is well worth it..
    But I do have her hair cut very very short for the summer. I think it helps with the heat.but also because she likes to swim in my pool and having her cut makes her much lighter in the pool and she sries quicker avoiding potential hot spots that can arise.

  12. hey i am desprate for a dog and all my family know it i really need to think of a way to give my mum that final push to get us one. i was browsing around on google images and i saw this cute piccy and i thought OMG shes sooo cute and perfect thx to u ive read all about them and my mum is soooo close she says i should be really exited about christmas!!!! HURRAY!!!

  13. I wish I could have a Golden Retriever puppy, but our 11-year-old Cavalier King Charles spaniel died in October, so we’re not getting any more dogs. And what’s really the point of making wishes? They never come true. So I can just dream on, but it’ll never happen. Golden Retrievers happen to be one of my favourite dog breeds, and I wish I could at least have a puppy… dream on, FirePrincess917, it’ll never happen…

  14. i jut got a golden retriever – they are gorgeous and i love my bonnie much but they can get so playfullits unreal lol but apart from getting bit all the time itsgood company i think :]

  15. sooo true our golden got house trained in only a few weeks, and she hasn’t gone in the house since, except when she was sick all over the couch XD I’m constantly surprised at how smart she is when it comes to getting treats. She’s very creative
