Would a male or female golden retriever make a better spoiled rotten companion for a disabled woman?

Answer 1

A male might be the best choice because he would get along with you better,and he should be able to help you around better. Males dogs can be more territorial and sometimes aggressive, but there are some fine and gentle male dogs out there. I prefer female dogs because they seem to have a more nurturing side to them. The dog being spoiled isn't helping the disabled person. If the dog has bad habits they could easily accidentally trip the disabled person. Any dog should listen to commands. Before giving the dog to this lady please take the time to get the dog some training. This lady should be able to give a command and the dog should react to it. == == I have always had male dogs. They are every bit as caring and gentle as the females. It all has to do with the individual dog and their upbringing. Each one has their own unique personality. Just take the time to know the animals before making your choice. Read a couple of books on how to read doggie behavior. Make a checklist of good and bad behavior signs. Go somewhere that will let you take the dogs to a play area or yard. It is hard, but try not to look at things like which one is the prettiest, the best color, the nicest build, and so on. Play with each one and go down your checklist. If they tug at your heart, and they are putting off good checklist signs, then you know the right one, male or female. Depending on the owner's disabilty, it would be a good idea for the dog to go through some professional training. If it all possible, it would be preferable for the future owner to attend some of the training as well.
