GOLDEN RETRIEVER

 The Golden Retriever is a breed of dog that was first developed in Scotland, United Kingdom. As indicated by their name, their coat comes in light golden colors to dark golden colors. The coat and undercoat are dense and waterproof, and may be straight or moderately wavy. It usually lies flat against the belly.
The Golden Retriever is a happy and friendly dog. He's reliable, gentle and calm friend. He is highly intelligent and easy to instruct. He loves to run and play outdoors and swim. I would even recommend the Golden retriever to anybody who wants to own a dog for the first time. These Dogs are also renowned for their patience with children. 

Do you know that this dog can run far distances with ease and agility? I feel he can even compete for the gold medal in the 100m races.
The Golden Retriever is the most intelligent and easiest breed of dog to train, it even ranks fourth in Stanley Coren's The Intelligence of Dogs.
The medium-length coat of the Golden Retriever only requires an occasional brushing. But because he sheds excessively you may find yourself brushing him daily to remove loose hair.
The average life span for a Golden Retriever is 11 to 11 1/2 years. They resistant to some diseases and do not get sick easily. The Golden Retriever's eagerness to please has made them consistent, top performers in the obedience and agility rings. Plus with their excellent swimming ability they are great at dock jumping. Their natural retrieving ability also sees them excel in fly ball and field trials.

The first three dogs ever to achieve the AKC Obedience Champion title were Golden Retrievers; the first of the three was a female named Ch. Moreland's Golden Tonka.
