Golden Retrievers love people. In fact, they love them so much that it’s important that they live inside with you. They don’t usually do very well with being outdoor dogs and may misbehave if they are kept apart from their favorite human companions for too long. Golden Retrievers usually get along alright with other pets, especially if they are raised with them from the beginning. Sometimes they can get a little overzealous in their play, so if you have toddlers you’ll want to keep an eye on them when they’re together.

Golden Retrievers have long hair that does require regular brushing, which will help control the amount of hair you find around your house. Even with regular brushing, you should know that Golden Retrievers do shed quite a bit. Other than brushing, it’s pretty simple : Give you Golden Retriever a bath after they play in the mud, in salt water, or in a pool, and you won’t have a smelly dog on your hands.

Are you active? Golden Retrievers sure are! A happy Golden Retriever gets at least an hour of exercise every day. As their name suggests, Golden Retrievers love retrieving. Some are bred for retrieving in hunting situations, but all of them will gladly play fetch with you until your arm has no strength left in it. They also love running, swimming, and doggie sports. Pretty much anything they get to do with you will make them really happy.
