3 Reasons to Choose One of Violet’s New Puppies

What breed of dog is the best match for you and your family? Each canine line has some incredible qualifications and special characteristics: Border Collies are intelligent, Terriers are spunky, German Shepherds are loyal, Labs are playful, Pugs are affectionate, Huskies are active. Why would a Golden Retriever be suitable for you? Unofficially known as “America’s Sweethearts“, there are many answers to this simple question. Here are 3 great reasons to seriously consider an AKC Golden Retriever from Windy Knoll Goldens in central Maine?

(1) Temperament. Goldens have super friendly dispositions. They love to interact and socialize. They are calm and fairly easy to train. They adapt well to different situations and people. They are relatively quiet dogs with minimal barking.

(2) Physical Traits. Goldens are moderately sized dogs between 55-75 lbs. with a life span of 10-12 years. They enjoy outside exercise and thrive on walks, hikes, swimming, and play in all types of weather. Goldens have beautiful double coats that require regular grooming.

(3) Versatility. Goldens function well in a wide range of settings. They relate well with young children as well as elderly folks. Many excel as therapy dogs. Others work as distinguished service dogs. Still others are capable search and rescue dogs.
