Eventually (which means next spring) I'll be getting a puppy. It will most likely be a Golden Retriever. I'm wondering whether I should get a male or a female? Please help me!

It's more about personality than the sex of the dog. An alpha female can be more stubborn in training but can also be more prone to dog aggression. Especially toward other females. There are many rescues that won't adopt a female dog into a home with other females. It can be lessened by getting them fixed, but even spayed females will fight. Alpha males are more likely to back off when the other dog submits.Females are usually less defiant than males. They usually won't test you as much.
