Question
Hello

I  will be geting a golden within a few weeks and wanted to know if they are easy to train,

Also does this breed tend to bark offen?

Answer
Hello,

Generally Goldens are easy to train.  Of course every dog is different, just like people.  Goldens on average don't really bark alot. They will bark when someone rings the doorbell or maybe at the mailman but generally if they bark you probably see what is going on.  For more information check out this website http://www.grca.org/  Please email me back when you get your puppy and we can work through all of the puppyhood training you will need. Hope to hear from you soon.
