Dash is a absolutely wonderful, perfect Golden dog. He not only has the best looks we have seen, he also understands basic commands, listens attentively when asked NOT to do something (pick up wrong item to possibly chew); sits; retrieves, (but does not always bring it back to us, just the general vicinity); walks on Gentle Leader like a pro (you just need 2 fingers and he is right by your side); will also walk great with harness and leash if you keep leash short. LOVES water sprinkers, bathtubs (without water so far); water dish, baby poolsâ¦.
Loves to play fetch and watch birds. He gets along with all the troops great. Cats are getting more used to himâ¦.he does like to âround âem up or somethingâ strictly play mode. Dash does not ask to get up on furniture or a bed (we do not ask either); sleeps all night and no accidentsâ¦on the floor by us on a blanketâ¦So he definitely can go from 10-11 at night until 5-7 or so in the morning. I am a part time employee so I am only away for approximately 4 hours or so.
Dash loves kisses and is very very loving. You can take anything away or out of his mouth with absolutely no issues. When taking a treat, has a very âsoftâ âGoldenâ mouthâ¦. Loves balls and stuffed toys. Has had an interest in my TP in the bathroom on the roller! Goes out to potty with everyoneâ¦thinks he needs to drink all the time so I do put the water up for a while for potty purposes just because he is new and I want to be careful. He loves to be brushed. Belly rubs are great. Appetite fine.
This is an awesome dog who would really appreciate and should have obedience/puppy dog classes to learn, bond, mature, and truly appreciate his future owners. I feel this would be very important for him and a new home. Dash is around 71#, a honey colored pure golden, Golden. Perfect stature and has a gaite that is wonderful to watch. Dash needs his exercise regularly. He is a big baby ready for fun. When he is on a walk around the neighborhood, he is absolutely fine with traffic and their sounds, other dogs, other children, sudden sounds, etc. He will be right by your side. I feel a family with no real young ones is best due to his size and ageâ¦he could run them overâ¦.more with love and size than anything.
I also feel someone who is knowledgeable about dogs and the breed is best. This guy is one in a million and needs the very best, patient, loving home. Someone willing to train and work with him. He will give someone his whole heart and undivided attention to the right home.
We truly appreciate and love this boy! The only flaw if you HAD to find one with him, is he slobbers when he drinks! Drip drip dripâ¦..and so it goes.
