If I was asked to pick the cutest puppy breed on earth one of the first ones that I would have to choose would be golden retriever puppies. First of all the retrievers are possibly the most useful of all breeds of dog and the golden retriever puppies just seem to have all that the rest of the retrievers have and much more. When you look at a golden retriever puppy there is such a feeling of happiness and warmth that does not come with all breeds of dog. If you were to get a single or pair of golden retriever puppies you could expect some wonderful things as they grow up. A golden retriever puppy will grow to be a medium sized dog which will weigh between sixty and seventy pounds, not a small dog but surely not a monster. The golden retriever puppies have become one of the most popular types of dog for families because of their very good natured personality. The golden retriever is a smart and very easy going dog so it is no wonder that they are at the top of the list for both a family dog and a service animal.

Golden retriever puppies will start off with a large appetite that will not go away. They are good eaters but they need a lot of exercise as a puppy and full grown dog so they will work off the food they eat. These dogs also have quite a beautiful coat. This can be the only negative thing about golden retriever dogs and puppies because their flowing and shiny coat does demand a steady attention to grooming.

The good natured personality of the Golden Retriever has made it a popular choice for both family pet and service animal. Golden Retrievers have a large appetite and so frequent exercise is necessary to avoid the dog becoming overweight.

If you are looking for a sweet, mild tempered and very smart dog or puppy I would recommend that you give golden retriever puppies their due time and see if they will fit into your family as well as they fit into millions of others.

An old, sick dog shivering on a street is a heart-rending sight. An abandoned dog needs a new home and a second chance at life. Instead of buying a dog, one can consider adopting a forsaken dog and providing it a new home.

A dog may be abandoned for various reasons. When a dog gets old or sick, the owner may find it difficult to give the dog the love that it needs. In such cases the dog is often left to struggle with its age or its medical condition on its own. Unavoidable circumstances like the death of the owner, relocation or economic problems can also render a dog homeless.

A lot of golden retrievers are bred and kept as pets; unfortunately a lot of them are also abandoned. There are many charitable non-profit organizations that rescue golden retrievers. These organizations provide medical care to the sick ones and shelter to the others. They also provide some training. Some of the sick dogs are taken in by foster families for medical treatment. When a golden retriever is fit for a new permanent home it is put up for adoption by the charitable organization.

It is often difficult for a family to adjust to an older golden retriever. Taking care of an abandoned dog needs a lot of patience. Some abandoned dogs may have behavioral problems due to the ignorance or abusive nature of the previous owners. But as it is said that nothing worthwhile comes easy, adopting a neglected golden retriever may be difficult but it can give you a lot of satisfaction and fulfillment. Give a golden retriever a new home and it will give you a home in its heart.
