Golden retrievers and german shepherds are two of the best dog breeds for families and individuals. These types of dogs are good for first time pet owners, families with small children, and older people to take care of. They are one of the most intelligent dogs which make them quick learners. Golden Retrievers have a kind and friendly temperament which allows the owners to take them out in public to socialize. The dog breed makes good companions for walks, runs, swims, and even hunting activities. Golden retrievers make very loyal and protective companions.
This dog breed tends to be an expensive breed, and could come with many possible health issues such as: allergies, hip dysplasia, and skin issues. They also tend to not be very good guard dogs due to their loving and open personality, they will greet anyone. Along with the fact that they are a very high maintenance breed due to grooming, high exercise needs, and the need for socializing. If time and energy are given to a golden retriever, they will make great, loyal companions.
German shepherds are very attractive dogs that make great family pets. They are very protective of their owners and have great instincts. However due to their very protective nature they can be violent with strangers who they feel threatened by, making it hard for the owners to take them out in public. Although due to them being very easy to train, you can train them not to be so territorial and aggressive. This breed also tends to be healthier than others, which prevents expensive vet visits. While this breed can be good for all types of pet owners, they do require a more active lifestyle. If they do not get enough exercise they become bored, anxious, and even destructive. Considering this, these dog breeds make good companions for everyone.
