Golden Retrievers and Black Labs are actually pretty close in size and build. An adult male of both breeds average around 85 pounds, the females around 75. It is not too uncommon for both breeds to get larger though. My black lab was about 110 pounds and quite tall. He was very healthy and muscular. The father of my Golden Retriever puppy is around 95 pounds, and also not fatty.
