I’ve always liked golden retrievers.
They’re just so quintessentially cute and happy.
Also I like the idea of being able to throw things and have someone go get them for me.
So to begin or end your day on a happy note–here’s a roundup of what I’m declaring the world’s happiest dog.
1. Head skritches ellict all the smiles
Don’t believe me? Try it yourself.
2. But belly rubs are even better
I believe this is called perfect zen.
I saw this adorable golden retriever at the park recently 🙂

3. They love their people from day 1
And they have so very much love to give.
Picked up Libby 7 weeks ago, this was her on our way home the first day. She is staring at my girlfriend. They are in love.

4. And they will never stop showing you just how much
Their love is real and pure and boundless, much like their energy.

9. They’re also HIGHLY trainable!
Look at this good doggo’s own seeing eye dog!
This is Charlie and Maverick. Charlie had his eyes removed due to glaucoma, but then Maverick came along as his little helper. Now they’re doing amazing. Both 14/10 pic.twitter.com/qjkhYLihEO

14. But they know when it’s time to get serious
“Speak softly and carry a big stick…”
If it was good enough for the Old Lion Teddy Roosevelt, who can argue?
Out of the Serengeti forest comes a rare golden elk. What impressive antlers. Hard to balance.
He's headed into the wilds of the back porch.

16. They learn fast
By seeing and doing.
My six-month-old puppy learned how to walk down the stairs by watching her brother.
Her brother only has three legs.
