Golden Retrievers are medium to large-sized dogs; males measuring from 23 to 24 inches at the shoulders and females are 21.5-22.5 inches. The average weight of males is 65-75 pounds; females weigh 55-65 pounds. Some individuals reach up to 26 inches at the shoulders and 105 pounds in weight. The average lifespan of this breed is 12-13 years. The breed standards are slightly different in the USA, England and Canada, so you should consult a breed club before showing your dog in other countries.
One of the main features of Golden Retrievers is their long dense coat, for which the breed got its name. The outer coat is coarse and resilient; it repels water and allows the dog to swim in the cold water. The coat may be either straight or wavy. Natural ruff around the neck, feathering on the chest, tail, underside and back of thighs is preferable. On the head, paws and front of the legs the hair is even and short.
The Gold Retriever coat color should be lustrous, rich golden of any shade, from pale cream to dark yellow. Feathering may be lighter than the rest of the coat. Puppies are usually lighter than adults, but the color will deepen with maturity. Red shades of the coat and black spots are serious faults. Small white markings are acceptable on the chest, but as Golden Retrievers grow older, they may develop gray or white markings all over the body.
