Animals

The Goldador is created by the crossing of two breeds: Golden Retriever and Labrador Retreiver. They are typically referred to as a “designer dog”. The most popular Goldadors are those resulting from first generation crosses.

Muscular and sturdy, the Goldador is well-proportioned and of medium size. They are athletic, hardy, and agile. They exhibit a pleasing personality and kindly expression.

Goldadors are active and require at least half an hour of daily exercise–most enjoy retrieving games as well as hiking and swimming. Once they’ve reached physical maturity (between 18 and 24 months), Goldadors make excellent jogging companions.

Training the eager-to-please Goldador is relatively easy – they come from a long line of dogs who work closely and willingly with people. This makes them an excellent choice for first-time owners, provided they get the exercise, structure, and positive reinforcement they crave.

Loving, devoted, and energetic, Goldadors are prized for their good-natured trainability. They make great family members–a natural with kids and social with other pets–as well as valuable guide, service, and bomb detection dogs.
