When it comes to popularity, Golden Retrievers are definitely on top – and there’s a good reason for that. These gorgeous dogs are truly a man’s best friend, in every sense – and they make no discrimination, loving kids and adults alike. Known as the ultimate family pet, Golden Retrievers are extremely loving and patient, on top of being easy to train, polite and intelligent. If you think you are up for the challenge of handling a larger dog (the females weigh about 50 pounds while the males average oat 70 pounds as adults), then Golden Retrievers should definitely be a top choice.
