Elena Moiseenko, a professional in Florida, loves dogs and has two golden retrievers. She had always purchased her dogs from a pet store, but after she learned about the treatment of dogs at puppy mills she chose to start rescuing pets. She recently rescued a golden retriever named Miller and will never return to a pet store again. Golden Retrievers are wonderful dogs for families.
Golden retrievers are medium sized dogs and are known for their long and thick golden coats. These dogs are hunters and have bodies that are strong as well as muscular. Their coats are water-repellant and are often made up of various shades of gold, white, and light blond. Some dogs may have unique markings such as white feet or whit patches on their chests and underbellies.
Golden retrievers are friendly dogs, who rely on their packs. These dogs enjoy being in a group, whether that group is filled with people or other dogs. If you choose to adopt a golden retriever, you may need to be prepared to have your dog with your every day. These dogs are often gentle with small children as well. However, it may be important to remember that these dogs are large and energetic. They could accidently knock over a small child.
Many people choose to add a golden retriever to their families because the dogs are intelligent, loyal, and gentle. Elena Moiseenko has had multiple golden retrievers and loves spending time with her dogs. She adopted one of her dogs and says “rescue dogs need us.”
