Our show-bred Golden Retrievers are the ultimate combination of silly charm and steady reliability. Always a bit goofy and full of jokes, they keep their puppy-like spirit well into adulthood, making them endlessly entertaining companions. They love to fetch and are eager to please, while also being incredibly stable and trustworthy, even around little critters. With their chunky build, adorable expressions, and an extreme amount of long, thick hair that sheds generously, they bring both laughter and love into any home. They are not nearly as bright as our hunting line Goldens, but they make up for it with their goofy happy chunky charm. This line makes a great pet, plus good for therapy, service (for some situations) and obedience competition. They are quick to overheat, so these dogs are not good dogs for high paced sports or more than 10 minutes outside in the Texas summers.
