We have owned a Golden and a Lab in the past. Ben Obi is our third Chessie. They are a whole different ball of wax.

Awesome!!!!!

I need a Lab

Me to or another golden.
Or a nova scotia duck tolling retriever

I really want a red fox(technically yellow)or a chocolate lab. But it has to be a female.

Id prefer a fox red
But I love the chocolate look but have had a chocolate before.

And Tollers are too energetic and similar to herding breeds for me though I love herding breeds too lol

I think Tucker has the energy of a Toller or a Aussie, so im not worried there. But i get the energy part which is why i would want a female for all retrievers they definitely have less energy. Then show lines have less energy to than a field line.

Males are very high strung.

Hmmm I’ve found the males usually more chill IMO LOL except one super intense ball obsessed high energy Lab we had LOL but a lot of our males have been mixes too but still LOL even my friend with two female Goldens, one is WILD and took forever to settle down and still isn’t fully calm and she’s like 5 or 6 maybe? And the other was calm and trained by like 6 months, stereotypical Golden LOL but yeah. Not all females are chill LOL

Im sure it depends on the dog itself but Denver is so chill and a few other females ive met with proper training were chill.
Every male golden i know is high strung, my aunt has 2 one is Denvers brother and he isnt as high strung as Tucker but has a lot of energy and her new puppy guess he will be 1 in April but he is crazy.
But then show line vs field line makes a difference.

But i would love a show line male golden.

Yeah that makes sense LOL this one was a rescue and I don’t think was properly trained when younger so that’s probably why LOL she also is more field type I think
