So true! The only breed that comes to mind that's always been sweet in my experience have been Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Delightful, every one, so far.
And some breeders totally ignore/ make excuses for so many issues!!!
I remember when St. Bernards were popular, and there's nothing like a killer 200 lb. dog! Fortunately they died young, and lost popularity, and those 'breeders' faded away.

Making blanket generalizations often fails, sorry. Two of the nastiest dogs I've ever met were Golden Retrievers. Just sayin'.

I had a neighbor with one who turned mean and aggressive in a short time span. They had him put down and had a necropsy. The dog has some kind of growth on his brain.
Any dog can turn out to be mean. Just like roosters. There are good ones and bad ones.

Going to run some errands and pick up the paperwork from work for my medical leave. Going to stop at urgent care too. I woke up with ankle/foot pain that is through the roof. It's the foot that I broke back in March. Not going to use the narcotic pain reliever unless absolutely necessary.

So I'm guessing that I won't be doing any chores today.

OUCH! Randy, how about staying out of trouble for a while?!

True that blanket statements don't tend to work.
Better version: all of the goldens I have known have been awesome doggos! Besides ours and my brothers, I have a few friends who have had them, including one service dog. But, a lot depends on breeding and training!

It's not like I'm looking for trouble. It just seems like trouble is all around me. Karma is getting back at me for a previous life where I must have been a nasty SOB.

Just like other people's kids.

As a kindergarten teacher, I can attest to that one!

On a chickeny note: finally got my brother's playset taken apart so I have wood for my chicken run! So excited!

Counting chickens, and trying to decide who stays, and who leaves, and how many will be best. Plan on older hens? Figure some will be gone this year? What about that EE bantam rooster who's got a questionable attitude? Decisions!!!

I know what I would do with a Cockerel that had a questionable attitude.
