Family Pets
Golden Mountain Dogs is a designer crossbreed, which is a cross between a Golden Retriever and Bernese Mountain Dog. They are extremely well-natured due to the characteristics of their parents. These are ideal family dogs as they are easy-going, quick learners, confident, and very friendly.
They have been said to be good alert dogs and will tell you if there is any suspicious activity going on. They also make good working dogs for hauling things and helping on a farm but also things such as therapy dogs, service dogs, guide dogs, and sniffer dogs. Golden Mountains are highly intelligent dogs and are very easy to train. Like all dogs they should be trained with positive reinforcement and you will notice they require fewer repetitions to catch on to a new command or trick.
Coats
Their coats are generally medium to long in length and are usually dense and straight. It is better to brush them a few times a week or every day to keep it smooth and reduce shedding. Brushing your dog can be a good bonding activity and an activity your kids could engage in.
Activity Level
These make great companions and will consistently crave your attention. They have an average energy level and enjoy going on jogs or hiking adventures, but they also enjoy cuddle time! They adapt easily to the owners lifestyle and will live to please you. It is good to crate train your dog for bedtime and when you leave the house so that it can get used to being separated from the family some and not end up suffering from separation anxiety.
History
It is unknown when the first Golden Mountain Dog was born but they are considered to be a newer designer breed. We are one of the only breeders in the United States and we have had our puppies go to every corner of the U.S.A
If you are looking for a well mannered and laid back big dog to add to the family the Golden Mountain Dog is the dog for you.
