1/6 GR's can eat themselves to death.
If they get ahold of a 60lbs bag of dogfood; they will eat until their tummies burst.
This genetic flaw is in only 16.7% of them, but still.
I've never heard of anyone loosing their GR this way, but I have known som obese GR's.
goldens always have that "I'm confused, but I'm happy to be here" look....
Don't know what's going on, but always down to party!

yes that is a common look with my Golden
Just like the Scottish.

Last night I was in the hospital and in terrible terrible pain and a lady brought her Golden for her husband who was in the hospital. He was a certified therapy dog and had 3 legs and gravitated towards me seeing I was in pain. 10/10 one of the goodest boys I’ve ever encountered. He helped me tons.

@@mercedeskennedy7519 I'm sorry for your loss. I've heard that cancer is a very common disease among goldens. I don't think anyone knows why, but I read that research is being conducted to find out.
My golden turned 12 years old back in november and he still acts like he's a child with those energy outbursts. Fortunately, he's recently been checked and he's still in great health with the exception of degrading eyesights and a little bit of possible arthritis in the back, but no cancer or hips problems. With the energy he has right now, I hope to have him for atleast another 2 years or more!
My grandparents’ golden lived to 20+ years old!
You can tell he doesn’t like the bath, but he loves the attention. That’s how goldens are. If they are being touched, all is good in the world.
Usually goldens love water. Perhaps it's the soap that bothers him. (though it looks like he loves getting his face washed to me)
Tell that to my golden. She acts and looks like I'm trying to murder her
One came into my work and literally just crawled in my lap and wouldn’t leave. They are wonderful dogs
How can you tell he doesn't like the bath? I don't own a golden, but I don't see indicators of him not liking it?
Can't get enough of these Golden's.. so similar to my 10 month old

Grew up with a Golden. Regarding that soft bite, one of my memories with her was at Christmas, when she grabbed one of the ball ornaments. We were all scared that she would chomp down too hard if we tried to hard to get it back, but that ornament was unscratched after slowly following and coaxing her for five minutes. She was very sweet.
The golden we fostered for two years had unfortunately gotten his tail injured in a closing car door years before, and it was sensitive to being touched. One time, without thinking, I grabbed his tail and in a nanosecond he had inserted my right forearm into his jaws...but exerted absolutely zero bite pressure, just looked at me and growled for a second, then let go, and we were back to our game. He could have seriously bitten me, but he was just letting me know to be careful in the future.
@@jackpine4347 Very gud boi, he knew he didn't wanna hurt you but just gave a gentle warning to not do that next time. That's a good doggo

I can’t believe how much I’ve learned from these videos. My best buddy passed away in June of 2022. He was by my side through cancer treatments throughout the pandemic. During the pandemic the clinic restrictions didn’t allow patients to take any guests to appointments. My buddy was allowed and he brought so much joy to everyone in the clinic. Patients and staff loved his timely visits. He would go see EVERYONE! I was given a cancer free diagnosis May of 2022. One month later on our morning walk he looked up at me made a small whimper, walked over to a tree, laid down and passed away. I’m not over it. I still miss him.
I love you Bam! I miss you so much.
So sorry for your loss. I’m sure that he hung on for you until you were better. What an amazing friend 🙏🏽

Once I went for a walk in a blizzard in Canada (all bundled up) I sensed something near me - it was a neighbourhood Golden Retriever who decided they were joining me for a walk!! After about 100 yards I said "Go back home now" and sure enough they went trotting back home. Highly intelligent, so friendly and majestic.
No way you just used yards as a measurement unit bro, well unless you were visiting in Canada I guess?

My childhood dog was a golden. We got him (after much begging from me) when I was six, and he passed in November. He was 13 years old. He was my brest friend and he would always do this headbutt thing when I was sad to cheer me up. He would always have a favorite toy that he would carry around and sleep with. He was the sweetest, bestest boy and I miss him so much.
Hearing “I tidy up his grinch feet” made my serotonin skyrocket, what a gentlepup.

For some reason, I thought there was a twist to the story where you become the golden retriever's pet.
I had retriver too and she was a hell
Golden Retrievers are lifeguards for your emotions. I'm convinced of that.
I am 63 years old and my husband and I bought a Golden Retriever (who was actually white) from a lovely, thoughtful breeder back in 1979 for my 21st birthday present. She was the most loyal, friendly, patient, loving dog ever. Everyone loved her and her grandparents took turns in babysitting!! 42 years later I still miss her and think of her at least monthly. We keep a lovely picture of her on our LR wall to this day. When we moved to the US from England we had to leave her behind, but she stayed with my Mum and her brother who both doted on her. They sent us regular updates and pictures and spoiled her to death. She was such a happy and caring dog. We will never, ever forget her. And, no, we have never had another one. Only two other dogs who were both strays.
I was 7 when we moved from Manchester to Virginia back in the late 70's. I don't think I stopped crying for 6 months after I found out that Squirt - out two year old goldie - was not coming with us. She lived with my gran and oppa and that Christmas I got to fly back and spend the holidays with them and Squirt. One of the best memories of my childhood. Thank you for the fond memories Julie.
We have a goldie that passed away 2years ago.. Goldie used to pray the rosary with my mother.. my mom learned to love our dog despite that she isn't a dog person.
A few months ago, when my mom was actively dying, she said she saw Goldie in spirit.. It came by her side..
So I was saying that these dogs are our spirit guides..
When it's our time to go... Our beloved deceased dogs will come for us.
I recently lost my golden retriever. His name was Mozart. Everything you said about the breed was true about him. Loved the video, even if I cried a little.

I reserved female golden retriever, she will be hopefully with me in the couple of weeks. I had german shepherd before, she was 13 years with me, and was my life, she was the most loving, sweet and gentle dog you could imagine. Even now after 6 months I feel big sadness in my heart, remembering the last day I took her in my arms to the vet. It was the saddest day in my life. I remember everything. I hope Lola (new golden retriever) would be at least half the kind and sweet as my Eva german shepherd, and hopefully we will have lovely 12 years of experiences.

@@zoran123456 I'm so sorry for your loss. We lost our elderly golden a few years back and welcomed a golden retriever puppy about a year later. One thing to keep in mind with goldens: They can be a handful as puppies (and those sharp puppy teeth!! they bite everything for the first few months) but it is SO worth it. They are the most wonderful dogs. Get some sleep now while you can, haha! But I have found my goldens very easy to potty train and pretty easy to train in general (they are eager to please, all they require is patience and love and they turn into wonderful dogs). I don't know what I would do without our golden, she makes me laugh every day and is so sweet.
Goldens are just distilled essence of joy, with a bit of derp thrown in.
“They are very intelligent dogs”
*Looks over at my golden who’s never had a thought ever and struggles to walk around furniture that’s slightly in his way*
Himbo dogs are so cute though! ♥
Agreed. I love ‘em but intelligent… yeah, I’m not so sure.
You have a highly intelligent golden retriever ---- acts dumb to avoid work.
Goldens are ranked #4 out of 79 in the widely-accepted Coren scale of dog breed intelligence. BTW, I am not biased: I don’t have a Golden--I have a Border Collie. But think about it--they wouldn’t be used as guide dogs, search and rescue dogs, and therapy dogs if they weren’t highly intelligent.
I had a Golden that was dumb as a sack of hammers but a good dog. He could be a knucklehead too. I had to put him in the sideyard before I mowed the backyard because, if I didn't, as I was mowing one half he'd take a huge crap in the half I hadn't done yet. EVERY SINGLE TIME!
I grew up with a golden retriever named Bubbles because her gentle nature reminded me of Bubbles from Powerpuff girls that I used to watch with my cousin whenever I went to her place (she had cable so she's in charge of the tv lol). Losing her was one of my saddest moments and when I get my own place I'm getting another one in memoriam of Bubbles.
Our golden passed away a few years from a. brain tumor, but the most questioned in our home used to be, "Dexter! Dex, what's in your mouth," followed by, "Drop it," and then would begin the mad race through the house while Dex laughed the whole time.
Caleb a VERY good boy! Look at him enjoying his bath! He look happy during the groom!

I was at a park, and this beautiful service dog passed by with his owner of course, he saw me, came by me, and let me pet him... You can actually feel a dog's energy, filling the space all around you... His coat was as soft as silk, and his gaze so calming and tender.
This i can attest to, there's something about petting a dog that just brightens up your day.
@@meanieweeny4765 Exactly, and if there's no dog around, then I just watch CZcams doggie videos he he

I had a golden retriever named Baron (and yes, I did get him after watching Air Bud and Homeward Bound) and he got to be a huge baby. Emphasis on baby. Scared himself the first time he barked, thought he was a lap dog despite being 100 pounds (he was not overweight, he was just huge) and no one could ever stay mad at him. He once stole an entire rotisserie chicken off the counter. He lived to be 10 years old and passed away when I was in college. It's been years and I still miss that sweet dog.
Awwww
My mom made a huge pan of stuffed mushrooms once and left them on the counter to cool when they came out of the oven. She came back 15 minutes later to the whole baking pan missing and one very guilty and greasy golden licking the floor.
@@xxwhispersxx2856 The chicken was a similar situation, tbh. We'd shoved it all the way back on the counter and I don't remember what we left the room to do, but we weren't gone a very long time, but still it was enough for that chow hound to just grab it and devour it.
Our first golden retriever(we’ve had four altogether, two currently) went mad for some donuts we brought home one time. I have no idea why. He was very well fed, not fat, but taken care of. And he had never done anything like that before or since. We put the box of Boston cream-filled chocolate topped donuts at the back of the counter where we thought he couldn’t reach though uncovered because we were going to eat more of them.
But he was a big boy at that point, about a hundred pounds, and apparently had no problem reaching across the counter and quickly yanking the whole box of them down to the floor where he proceeded to scarf them all down in less than a minute. I seriously had gone into the living room just to check on the fireplace for just a minute and came back to him having devoured ALL of the rest of the donuts. I think there were about 10 of them. We thought, oh no, the chocolate will get him for sure! But he was perfectly fine since he was such a big dog.
I guess he had a thing for Boston cream-filled chocolate donuts. Hahaha!😜
Caleb's feathering is gorgeous. He's so luxurious.
Can also confirm: Goldens are fabulous family dogs. So perfect and tolerant around young children.
Definitely depends on the breeding and how socialized they are around children.
I'd say they definitely need training around young children. Not because of aggression, just because of their tendency to be quite hyperactive.
@@cdogthehedgehog6923 That's a good point. I've always dealt with the dogs after they were adult, so I've only ever seen how good they are with children. And my childhood goldie wouldn't play rough with us little ones until he determined we were big enough to handle it
@@xxwhispersxx2856 All dogs (perhaps most especially large ones) need proper socialization, but that doesn't mean some breeds don't tend to be more inherently suited to certain living arrangements and conditions.
@@cdogthehedgehog6923 It's actually the kids that are aggressive - not in a bad way of course - a majority of kids just don't understand you need to be gentle with dogs and they will try to climb all over the dogs and yank on their ears and of course a dog is gonna get sick of that. A heavily socialized dog that is used to that kind of stuff will put up with it, but there is definitely limits.
I loved my Golden named Jack Daniels cause he was more reddish then golden, We taught ours not only to retrieve birds but also to sniff out the remote control to the TV when we had misplaced it. He would also get excited after we came back from grocery shopping and carry all the cans and boxes one at a time over to the pantry straight from the grocery bag for us to put away. When you acted hurt or really were hurt he would climb all over you and then just plop down like a blanket on your lap. He was the best dog. Everything was a game to him.
Homeward bound is honestly such a beautiful and emotional movie, so underrated, glad that its one of your favorites as well! :)
It's so satisfying to see you profile his fur with your curved scissors.
i love golden retrievers so much! they're like pure sunshine condensed into a fluffy package!

She was the most lovable, adorable dog I've ever had and I'm extremely grateful for all the times we had together. I miss her dearly, but the fond and funny memories are the ones that stayed tattoed in my mind. Goldens are just something else.
I would love to own a Golden but never had it only because of this one reason. They'll love us unconditionally and one day they'll leave us, leaving a permanent hole in our heart.
@@001barca I totally get you. What gave me a little bit of confort was the idea that I gave her the best life I could and she was a very happy dog, always giving love. She was my friend for a small portion of my life, but I was hers for all her life. :)
I just felt so calm and peaceful after watching him…
Retrievers are literally too good for this world.
that could be true.. we love ours
Another reason: I'm scared of dogs (ironic, I know). When I hear one bark I get slightly panicked, also when a larger dog suddenly comes towards me. But there was this one dog in Croatia. The dog was also a Golden Retriever. He slowly came toward me, still wagging his tail but he seemed careful as if he knew and gently pushed against me. I let him sniff my hands and he let me pet him, all the while being very nice. Whenever I stopped he didn't bark or anything, bit instead just looked at me. That experience has helped me become a bit less nervous toward dogs, and since my friend also had a friendly one they're the ones I like the most! And this one here also seems very nice!
Goldies are so gorgeous, always seem to be smiling and kindhearted.
I had a Golden Lab till a couple years ago. Can confirm, she'd eat just about anything. Bloody hated going on walks too, we'd go around the block once and when we came back around she'd sit down in front of the door like "No. We done."
I loved that lazy licker. Cuz boy howdy did she give doggy kisses to anyone within blep range.
Golden retrievers just have that look of, “I just want to make you happy.” And they do.
This makes me want a golden retriever 🥺I always come back from work tired and stress.
The Scotts are also known for breeding one of the smartest dog: Border Collie. Unfortunately, they forgot to breed in the off switch, seeing the disastrous consequence of their mistake which lead to feathers flying everywhere, toys being worn out within a couple of weeks and carpets being worn down due to never-ending-zoomies. They realised the importance of an off switch and decided add it feature in the goldy.
Border Collies are working/herding dogs and, while generally considered the smartest breed, are usually considered poor pets (unless the owner has a lot of space for them and lots of daily work for them). Seen multiple examples of their behavior around kids and trying to herd them because they have nothing to work on.
@@MattRowland So what you’re saying is, Border Collies should really live in school playgrounds so they can herd the kids when the bell rings?
@@Crucisphinx that's an amazing idea
But they repurposed the off switch from their appetite to do it.
what a perfect comparison!! LOL
It's impossible not to love such a good boy who actually cooperates with his grooming.
"They have a soft mouth" *stares at my dog Tokyo who just beheaded a teddy and he is just 2.5 months old*
I love Golden retrievers and their gentle, wise yet goofy nature
Edit : THIS COMMENT IS ONLY FOR DOG LOVERS ,OK IF U HATE YOUR DOG BUT PLEASE DON'T RUIN MY DAY BY COMMENTING SOMETHING BAD ABOUT THEM. IF U HATE DOGS SO MUCH Y U HERE? MAYBE SOME OF YOU ARE TYPING IT FOR ATTENTION GO SOMEWHERE ELSE U WONT GET IT HERE.
golden retrievers are instinctively aggressive. it takes a good owner to train them to be good. But be careful around children because all it takes is their pit fighting genetics to kick in to attack even good owners.
@@failtolawl all dogs become aggressive if they arent socialized
@@failtolawl pit fighting genetics
LOL
@@failtolawl you confused golden retriever with pitbull
@@chadboates9880 guy didnt watch the video.
My retriever was mixed with a Doberman (he was also a rescue) and he was such a sweetheart. Even when meeting strangers. I miss u like crazy, George! Eat lots of treats in doggy heaven.
that dog is like "this is pure bliss" when hes being bathed
He has such a sweet face, & the softest eyes.❤
He looked the absolute cutest getting his ears scrubbed and rinsed.
I love my golden boi Indy. He's only a little over a year old so he's not the goodest boi quite yet but he will be once his attention span and impulse control develop a little more. He's the happiest and most friendly puppy ever and his whole attitude just spreads joy to everyone.
Recently I was watching a true crime show and they brought in a cadaver dog (not a Golden) named Indy. They said that his full name, though, is Indiana Bones.
@@LeeBv9983 Yes my Indy's full registered name is Chadwick's Indiana Jones. (Chadwick's is the breeder he came from)
so nice. we have a 10 month old... too sweet
My favourite breed too. Never met an unfriendly golden. Such beautiful souls. 🧡
How gently they can pick things up is no joke. Used to have a retriever that loved Guinea eggs. He would gently pick up an egg he found and go trotting away to eat it alone. RIP Elmo.
”To the golden, almost anything is edible.” True that! Sheep poop is a real treat, for example 🤣 been there, saw that…
Aw lord🤣🤣🤣🤣
My Black Lab loved poop too......human poop and live frogs.
Forgive me if I am wrong and tell me if I am, but isn't eating of poo a sign that the dog thinks it lacks something in its nutrition?
@2 Nep8id6 This is why I trained my dogs not to lick faces.
@@ThaFuzzwood Maybe. I am no expert, and while I LOVE dogs, I never had one myself.
When I was a grooming assistant I had one that I was giving a bath and the tile around the bathtub gotten so soaked from are busy work day that I slipped and fell and busted my tailbone and that boy bought his way out of the bath and came to lay on me and all his soaking wet glory and didn't leave my side until someone came to get me
Golden's truly are the best dog
Ouch, sympathy pain even though I've never broken that before.
And yes, they're Golden Angels.
I hope you are healed well from your fall. Had the same injury & it belatedly took me out of work for 6 months. Fully recovered, great Blessing!! Goldens are very loving, loyal dogs. Best wishes to you.
He knew to keep pressure on it
I have had 2 Goldens, Zeke and Hank and they were the most wonderful souls. Sweet, adorable, obedient and loving. I miss them both
Goldies are so will to please it`s unbelievable - Most open hearted, patient and friendliest dogs i`ve encountered.
Be sure of their energy level though and never neglect them, as they need alot of attention and love.
"I JUST MET YOU AND I LOVE YOU." Goldens are fantastic.
"They are incredibly intelligent..."
*meanwhile the golden I'm dogsitting*
"Hooman, there is something under bed! Come look!"
"Riley, there's LITERALLY nothing under here. I can even move the bed and show you."
"Hooman! I am barking and whining to alert you to the thing under the bed!"
Turned out that the house was a prime spot to witness paranormal activity?
It's a ghost.
Maybe he's smelling the body hidden under the floor, that's under the bed.
Probably a decomposed body under the floor
💀
Once I went with my ex to visit her brother, and when we got in the door, their big golden retriever started running at us and showing his teeth. Turns out he just thinks he's smiling apparently, he was super friendly and had a lot of fun with our dachsund/poodle mix.
very gentle doggo
I love goldens. My sister has one and he's so good. He's very careful with the elderly members of the family, and good with the tiny tots. She'd take him to her job at the library when it's not open, and whenever someone puts a book in the book drop, he'd fetch it for her to check in. She also taught him to take off her shoes and socks, and then he brings her slippers and puts them on her feet. She's hoping to get him certified as a therapy dog so he can participate in a reading program where kids read books to therapy dogs. I refer to him as a golden cloud of love.
Omg that is so adorable!
That is so cute, my dog just flops around on the sofa looking for cuddles. 🥰
Wonderful! ❤️❤️
OMG THE CUTENESS 😍 ❤ ❤ ❤
We always had goldens when I was a little kid because my dad loved them. Seriously the sweetest dogs ever. I get happy every time I see one.
I find even mature goldies have a very fun streak of mischief in them.
I have had two goldens in my life (one currently with us, a happy 2 year old), and they really do have a face that makes everyone love them. Both have been wonderful, gentle beings and even if they want to run up to you, will basically vibrate with excitement but maintain a polite distance. :) I'm very blessed that we won out on good beans amongst the breed.
Such a good boy!

Golden retrievers are so good with children that they literally teach children how to walk them, how to play and how to be boss. They will correct bad leading using a leash, and it's quite amazing to see your barely able to walk 4yo being taught so much in such a small time span.
I JUST WANT TO HUG HIM…HE’S SO GOOD
