Several breeds were believed to be associated with the development of the Golden Retriever such as the Tweed Water Spaniel, wavy and flag-coated retrievers and lastly, a red setter. The person who got all the credit in the production of the very first dogs that were later named and known as Golden Retrievers is Dudley Marjoirbanks, Lord Tweedmouth. But contrary to that popular belief, the latest research into studbooks, aged paintings and other sources strongly propose that dogs which is closely similar to the Golden Retriever is probably a setter type that is already existing long before the Lord Tweedmouth even started to breed them in his Scottish estate or the Guisachan. In 1911, the England’s Kennel Club categorized the dogs as “Retrievers – Yellow of Golden” but 9 years later they decided to change its name to “Retriever – Golden.”

Golden Retriever

This particular breed is already registered in the American Kennel Club as early as 1925 but it is only formally acknowledged as a breed 7 years after the first registration which in 1932. From then on, Golden Retriever was rapidly known to be a very versatile dog – it can be a companion dog, working dogs or hunting dogs. Not only that, this specific breed is also a part in search and rescue team, animal-assisted therapy, detection of arson and assists the people with disability to their work. With the dog’s innate power, agility, keenness and intelligence, it is very easy for them to learn, adapt and perform almost any chore that it is being commanded to do so.

At the present, Golden Retrievers is one of the most adored and loved breeds. As a proof, it was able to sit on the 5th rank amongst the other breeds acknowledged by the American Kennel Club.
