[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Golden retrievers. I love them, but I'll never have one again without having a farm or a lot of acreage. They need space to run. They also suffer too much in hot weather. We lived in MN and our dog was so much happier in the cold and snow and lower summer temps than he was here. [/quote] I know an older couple who just re-homed their golden after almost two years of trying to make it work. The city environment was a bad fit, the dog was clinically anxious and had a spotty history so no one knew why it had its triggers (dog was obtained via rescue), and the idea of a wild dog with aging people was a bad mix. They were very sad to have the dog move, but ultimately it was the best for all involved. I should also note it was a poor fit from the original rescue organization, to put this dog with people who in 10 years would likely be too old to give it the care it needs. [/quote]
