Goldens are the best, they've been apart of my family for over 30 years. This picture was when he was I think 5-6 months old if I remember, he's going on a year now.
I've wanted a golden for over 20 years now. Dad never wanted another dog (he grew up with them) and my mom never caved. Starting out in apartments none of them gave me the ability to have a pet. And now that I own a house... the only barrier is me feeling I can properly care and pay for everything it needs.
