The Golden Retriever is the undisputed star on this international day dedicated to its extraordinary personality.
With a history stretching through 19th-century Scotland, traditionally from crosses between the Flat-Coated Retriever and the Tweed Water Spaniel, this breed was born to be a versatile, intelligent and devoted companion. The Golden Retriever is the perfect balance of strength and gentleness, with a loving temperament that wins the hearts of everyone who meets it.
Their innate kindness is perfectly matched with extraordinary intelligence: these are highly trainable dogs that respond well to commands and love to learn new tricks. This characteristic makes them ideal for performing a variety of tasks, from animal-assisted therapy to assisting people with disabilities.
The Golden Retriever loves movement and physical activity, turning every moment into an opportunity for joy and fun. Their presence in the family brings a positive and contagious energy.
Their endless loyalty and affection are truly a treasure, and today is the perfect day to celebrate this extraordinary four-legged friend.
