If the family has young children and has never owned dogs before and isn't experienced at training or handling dogs, then either a golden retriever or a Labrador retriever would probably be better than a German shepherd. German shepherds are generally not appropriate for families with babies or young children.
However, both golden retrievers and Labrador retrievers need to be very well trained and very well socialized to live successfully with a family, so whatever breed is chosen the family needs to commit together to devote the necessary time (and it is a LOT of time) to train, socialize, and care for the dog. This is a commitment and decision that no family should make lightly.
the answer is golden retriever
That is not true. Whether you like golden or Labrador retrievers is completely up to you. It is an opinion, but I will tell you this much; I prefer Labrador retrievers only because they are rated NUMBER 1 best with kids, and are for a matter of fact, easier to train.
That's really an opinionitive question, but for me, its the GOLDEN RETRIEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It will always be a matter of personal choice. But for me it will be the Goldie hands down every time. . . Loyal, beautiful obedient and exceptionally clever you will on taking on a Golden Retriever make a lifetime companion. Golden Retrievers DO require regular grooming so be prepared and a word of WARNING those beautiful pictures you always see of golden puppies or adults are not a true reflection they love a dirty puddle, a walk in the rain and most of all a swim . . so invest in a pair of wellies!!!. Golden Retrievers are excellent with children and other animals. Having had 3 all at the one time I cannot tell you the amount of fun and Laughter they have brought me . Please note the golden retriever is a sensitive dog they will pick up on your body language and mood - they are easy to train and so willing to please and the best reponse from them is when you are loving and caring.
My opinion is the golden retriever but they are both a lot of work and need a lot of pateince
both are good and friendly to my conclusion i say German Shepard is best for they are guard and beautiful dogs , we can also keep two of them,thank you.
German shepherd would be a better pet
Both breeds are good. Which is better for you depends on your personal preferences, your lifestyle, and what you have to offer a dog.Other contributors have said:German shepards because they live longer and are more intelliegent and are beautiful
German Shepherd hands down
In my opinion, the German Shepherd is way better. They are more of a family dog. They are really protective of their family. The only time they bite you is if you be mean or they are playing around with you.
Females for most cases.
You should be better at training! haha, by thorita.
Probably a German Shepherd - They listen to their owner more than a Weimaraner who may get bored and make faults. The German Shepherd excels in this sport, whereas the Weimie is better suited to gun work.
It depends on the owner and their preferences on dogs.
Depends on owners preference of trait.
That is a matter of opinion and whether the dog is naughty, I would choose a boy, especially if it's a puppy, they have and cute attitude.
Dobermanns are intelligent, fast, strong, fearless, loyal. Dobermanns are warriors from hell. German shepherd is nothing compered to a Dobermann(European bloodline).
Yes
