Golden Retriever

You matched with the Golden Retriever!

You are looking for a partner in crime who is equal parts active and affectionate. The Golden Retriever is the classic "good dog" for a reason—they fit into almost any social situation with a wagging tail.

Why this is your match:

• You value a dog that is friendly with strangers and other pets.
• You want a dog that can hike on Saturday but chill on Sunday.
• You don't mind a bit of shedding (okay, a lot of shedding) in exchange for pure love.

Goldens are eager to please and relatively easy to train, making them perfect for people who want a companion without the intense stubbornness of some other breeds.
