A golden retriever is one of the best family pet dog breeds, they are just so gentle and love children and to please in general. Nathan adores him as he lets him get away with anything but he's not too happy when it comes time to have to share his ball pit with an over excited doggo! Buddy is such a good boy, but you can't leave a ball near him f you want to keep it. Or a sock for that matter, he likes to eat them for some reason haha, the more used the better...
