I have a golden retriever! I think they're the most friendly, gentle dogs!
Oh my friend has a golden.  Very sweet dog!  Are they smart dogs?
Very smart! They're a very popular breed that's used as disability assistance dogs for the deaf and blind.
My setter/corgi would knock over a blind person, I'm afraid.  It's good there are dogs who can work with people with disabilities.
I agree! The only thing you wouldn't want a golden retriever for would be as a guard dog. They are unsuited for that job due to their sweet, gentle temperaments!
