To those who want to adopt Golden Retrievers, I hope you realise that this breed can shed ALOT of fur. Please be prepared to groom your furkids on a daily basis, and dont get upset when you see fur all over the place.

I know a few people who got GRs because they thought GRs are cute, only to neglect or dislike them later just because they shed alot. Be responsible owners ya!!

Personally, my gf has a GR as well, and I'm loving him to bits just as much as she does.

I posted the pictures of me and my gf's furkids in the Pet's Picture thread already, but I'll post them up here again.

My furkid, Ginger:


Here's my gf's doggies:
Golden Retriever, Napoleon a.k.a. Nappy :


Miniature Schnauzer, Pepper:




Hmm...tips on GR eh? Err...make sure your GR gets enough calcium, cause GRs are known to develop joint problems later when they're older.
