[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like Golden is the only real answer here. They are genetically designed to be perfect in every way except for the massive shedding.

But these other dogs are all good runners up.  Also add springer spaniels to the mix.  I think generally speaking, the sporting dogs are pretty solid choices because they were designed to hang out with a human to help the human and follow subtle signs from the human, but not to work all day long (so don't get as antsy as the herding or terrier breeds).  Also, the soft mouth for retrieving breeds is a major plus.[/quote]

I find your answer presumptuous, just as I find Golden Retrievers predictable in both appearance and personality. They are sweet and biddable but also boring. Give me a dog breed that is more independent and has more personality. [/quote]

+1. Not to poo poo a great family breed, but all the Goldens I have ever met (and I have known a lot), are all the same. Exact same dog. [/quote]

LOL, I know what you mean! That said, I have friends with working/field bred GRs. They are nothing at all like the Gund version of GRs that are ubiquitous, and can be not the easiest of dogs to live with.[/quote]
