Re: How similar in personality to a golden retriever?

I'm just going to tell you, don't buy a dog when you're in school, it never ends well. Some tams are more trainable than others but mine is definitely not even close to a golden. Think more like a husky or even a GSD. Wylie has his Rally Obedience Novice title but that took almost a year to train for.
