They are very intelligent and eager to please so they can be easily trained. Golden Retrievers have a very social nature so they generally get on well with other dogs and people too. They are very adaptable dogs which means fit in with every people’s lifestyle but they do need lots of exercise and mental stimulation otherwise they get bored. They remain puppy like dogs for a long time. Golden Retrievers shed a lot almost all year.
