There are many beautiful and strong dogs you
can bring into your family. The white golden retriever is a tall and powerful
dog. Their legs support great balance and an elegant appearance. They are agile
animals with a short and square muzzle. Their ears are shaped in a triangular
pendant. Their eyes are dark brown with a black nose. In order to provide
improved swimming they have webbed feet. Their outer coat is water-repellent,
flat, and oily, under which there is a thick oily coat. If the dog remains
indoors it will eventually lose the undercoat. The top coat is long, straight,
and dense, but soft to the touch. The hair will fall back into place if it is
brushed incorrectly.
In terms of temperament the white golden retrievers are generous, courageous, and intelligent. They are patient and mild
to guests. They can act on their own if necessary and will place themselves in
between their family and an intruder rather than bark at them. They will
recognize dangerous situations if their family is in harm but for friendly
visitors who present no threat, they are mild and calm. At times the male dogs
will be more aggressive to other males when the owner is not in the room.
Overall they are patient and playful with children.
The white golden retriever is very sociable and
enjoys companionship and the outdoors. They will drink lots of water and they
love to get wet. Puppies require more food than adults. These dogs thoroughly
enjoy swimming but training them should be done early. They are sensitive to
the sound of their owner’s voice and will behave to training presented in calm
but firm manners.
The male white golden retriever is typically 28 to 30
inches in height while the female White
golden retriveris typically 26 to 28 inches in height. The males will weigh
an average of one hundred and thirty to one hundred and fifty pounds while the
females weigh between one hundred and one hundred and twenty pounds.
The white golden retriever is prone to a few health
problems, especially if they get fat. They are prone to heart disease which is
hereditary as well as hip dysplasia. Puppies should be checked for sub-aortic
stenosis once they reach eight to twelve weeks old. Adults should not be
allowed to breed until they have been cleared for this.
If you own a white golden retriever you should ensure that
they are given cool climates. They are sensitive to warmer weather and enjoy
cool water. While indoors they will remain relatively inactive and can handle a
small yard. In terms of exercise daily walks are best suited for these dogs.
They should be made to walk beside the owner or at their heel. In all cases the
human should lead and the dog should never be allowed to lead. These dogs enjoy
frequent swims as well. They will typically live to be ten years of age.
