Goldador: Breed Highlights

• Goldadors like to eat and can easily become overweight if they don't get enough exercise.
• Goldadors are good family dogs and generally do well with children of all ages.
• The Goldador sheds moderately and requires weekly brushing.
• Goldadors usually get along well with other dogs and pets, especially when they're raised with them or socialized to them at an early age.
• Goldadors require about 30 minutes of exercise per day. They enjoy being outdoors and can make excellent jogging companions.
• Although a house with a fenced yard is the ideal home for a Goldador, he can do well in an apartment or condo with proper exercise.
• Goldadors can be a good choice for first-time dog owners.
• To get a healthy dog, never buy a puppy from a puppy mill, a pet store, or a breeder who doesn't provide health clearances or guarantees. Look for a reputable breeder who tests her breeding dogs to make sure they're free of genetic diseases that they might pass onto the puppies and who breeds for sound temperaments.
