Other than the hair issue, the best dog breed is the golden retriever! No animal will be more loyal, and show more love to your family than a golden. Mine would run in front of me on my mountain bike every day. That is how I would walk her out in the woods. Would be with the kids everywhere they went outside to keep an eye on them. One we had would not let my daughter swim in the lake deeper than the dog could walk. The dog would mouth her arm and would not let go until the dogs feet were touching the bottom!
