The Golden Retriever - A Great Family Dog
The golden retriever is perhaps the most popular family dog and rightly so as its gentle temperament makes it a great companion for families with children. originating from Britain this breed is an excellent tracker and has been used as a hunting dog and also to help sniff out narcotics. They are very intelligent and eager to please as well as fast learners which makes them great candidates for guide and therapy dogs.
A member of the American kennel club sporting group, the golden retriever was first registered at the AKC in 1925. By breed standards they should be between 20 and 24 inches in height and weigh between 55 and 80 pounds. If cared for properly, the golden retriever can live for 12 years or more.
The golden retriever has a beautiful golden coat and has a well proportioned and sturdy build. the medium length code is feathered with a dense undercoat and water repellent outer coat. They have a broad head with powerful muscle black nose and brown dark rimmed eyes. They have medium pendant shaped ears in the long tail that is carried straight, not curled. Golden retrievers callers can range from cream to a deep gold.
Well known for their gentle manner and intelligence, the golden retriever is easily trainable and a good dog if you have other pets and children. They are eager to please, loyal and confident but are extremely active and will need to get their exercise. While they are easy to train, they can be quite boisterous and are easily distracted so you want to exhibit patience during the training process. Your golden retriever should be an active member of your family as he can become mischievous if left alone for long periods of time.
This breed can be prone to eye defects as well as hip dysplasia and should also be checked for heart problems and Von Willebrand's disease. Some can be prone to skin allergies, and you should keep an eye out for this as you'll need to treated it immediately.

Of course, they love to retrieve so having him retrieve balls or sticks or even a frisbee is ideal.

When grooming your golden retriever mixture to pay attention to the dense undercoat and brush in good with a firm bristled brush. Only bathe when absolutely necessary, but if you want to you can dry shampoo them as often as you want. This dog is an average shutter.

Will I look good with medium golden brown hair?
Ok so I have medium golden brown hair naturally, but I put some bleach blonde highlights in it. I want to go back to the original color, maybe even a lighter golden brown. Something like Keira Knightley in The Dutchess. I want to know if this will look good or bad. I have ivory skin with subtle pink undertones, and darkish eyebrows. '
THANKS
your Natural Hair color...enhanced a bit...is usually the best fit.
