I love pets, especially dogs, Golden Retriever's are especially neat dogs.
They are! And they're beautiful too. They have really dense hair which keeps them warm if it's cold outdoors. But I live in Texas, so they might be too hot here.
Yeah, it might be. They are like the classic dog, usually when I think of domestic dogs I think of them.
Yeah, quite an American dog in a way, huh? It's likely because they're so often found in suburban environments, and a lot of America lives in the suburbs.
Yeah that could be it, I think some old TV shows and movies featured them as well, so it could be that too. 
Absolutely, that adds a lot to the perception of them. They're also super common as disability assistance animals, which helps.
Yeah that is true, they seem like a very reliable dog. Playful but also big enough to help their owners. I certainly prefer the larger dogs.
They are certainly reliable, that's why so many are trained to be hunting companions, as well as search and rescue assistants for police and firefighters.
