male or female Golden?
Some breeds of dogs have distinct differences in personality between male and female dog. There is simply too much individual variation in Goldens to make sweeping generalizations based on the sex of the dog. You may be thinking of requesting a male or female dog because you’ve been told that one sex of dog is more affectionate or independent than the opposite sex. This is not the case with Goldens. Both genders want lots of physical attention. Dogs of either gender can be independent, silly, dignified or sloppy in their need for affection. We suggest you identify the personality traits you value in a companion dog and ask if such a dog is available for adoption. Our best matches of dogs and adopters are based on temperament rather than sex.
