Well, if they stink, then there is probably an infection, either yeast or bacterial. If there is brown sticky like stuff in there, then there is definitely an infection. The most common ear infections are yeast infections. The best thing to do is see a vet, let them diagnose the problem, flush out the ears, and get you medication. I recommend this first and foremost, however, you can get a mild ear cleaner and clean the ears yourself. For yeast infections, I swear by the over the counter vaginal yeast infection medications. It is the same type stuff your vet will give you for an ear yeast infection, however, it does not take care of bacteria if it is present. One other thing you need to consider is ear mites.

Golden Retrievers are usually great with kids, and Border Collies are better with slightly older kids. It all depends on how the dog was raised when it was younger.

No, the Labrador Retriever is recognised as a completely separate breed to the Golden Retriever. All though both of these breeds were originally bred to retrieve, they were bred along different lines. The Labrador Retriever has a shorter coat and can come in black, brown (chocolate) and blonde (yellow). The Golden Retriever (as it's name suggests) is almost always golden in colour with a longer, flowing coat. There are several other Retriever breeds that look similar, including the Flat-coated Retriever, Curly Coated Retriever, Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. All of these breeds were bred for a similar purpose but are each individual Kennel Club recognised breeds, except the Golden Retriever and the Labrador Retriever are much more common.

I had a golden/chow for 10 years. Great dog, very loving, and also appropriately protective. I am currently looking for another one. Does anyone out there know where I can find one. I prefer a puppy or young male. I live in South Florida, so it would have to be somewhere south of Orlando.

The basic principle is the same. Fetch is normally reserved for toys and balls while retrieve is used for retrieving game. Same principles apply and fetch games are a predecessor to training a dog to retrieve game.

Golden retrievers can live up to 12 to 16 years of age. Some have lived as long as 20 years, but this is very rare.

Some kill dogs because:

1. Disobedience or frustration. The dogs don't listen to their masters when they tell them to do something.

2. Psychopathy/cruelty. The owners are psychopaths or abusers.

3. Dog fighting. Some don't kill them directly, but set them up to be killed in dog fights. Sometimes sore losers of dog fights kill their own dogs.

4. Mercy killing. Some kill dogs out of mercy, such as if they are very old, terminally ill, or in severe pain.

5. Self-Defense. Some kill dogs that are attacking them, their loved ones, or children. Some do so because the dog has end-stage rabies and is a public health risk.

The largest golden retriever stood 5 ft tall and weighed as much as an averaged human.

I took my retriever Eliza to the vet and she tipped the scales at 96.2 pounds. She makes an averaged sized retriever look tiny.

My 7 months old pitbull puppy got attacked today by a adult pure breed golden retriever. The golden retreiver was not on the leash when it came close to my puppy. After the golden sniff my dog's rear it jump and bit my puppy's back. Traumatized my puppy started to cry and get off from underneath the golden retriever. The only time the golden let go of my dog was when the owner yelled no. She did apologized and said that she doesn't know when her dog gets agressive. My puppy was left with a hole of the golden's tooth on his back. I don't understand that lots of people believe that goldens are good dogs by nature and the way it is breed. That's so not true because good dogs can come from any breed if it receives good training. Not all goldens are Marley. And there is no such a thing of best genes because goldens are mix breeds.

This person is a jackass. Many people with allergies do very well with poodle crosses and this breed (yes - there are true breeders who are respectable - see goldendoodles.com) are smart, family friendly pets.

Try the local animal shelter? You're talking about a mixed breed, so the best bet is to save a life, and not contribute to backyard breeders who are creating designer mutts.

Rescue Remedy is not necessarily the best choice for helping a dog with storm or sound phobias. You would probably see better results from melatonin or an anti-anxiety medication prescribed by a vet.
