My Golden Retriever
 
He is my other eyes that can see above the clouds;
My other ears that hear above the winds.
He is the part of me that can reach out into the sea.
He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for being;
by the way he rests against my leg;
by the way he thumps his tail at my smallest smile;
by the way he shows his hurt when I leave without taking him.
When I am wrong, he is delighted to forgive.
When I am angry, he clowns to make me smile.
When I am happy, he is joy unbounded.
When I am a fool, he ignores it.
When I succeed, he brags.
Without him, I am only another person.
With him, I am all-powerful.
With a true heart of gold, he is loyalty itself.
He has taught me the meaning of devotion.
With him, I know a secret comfort and a private peace.
He has brought me understanding where before I was ignorant.
His head on my knee can heal my human hurts.
His presence by my side is protection against my fears of dark and unknown things.
He has promised to wait for me... whenever... wherever - in case I need him.
And I expect I will - as I always have.
He is my Golden Retriever.

At Heart of Goldens, we are a family who enjoys the hard work and dedication it takes to raise healthy puppies. Our hope is for each puppy to become not just a pet but a cherished family member. With this hobby, we have taught our dogs to sit, lie down and shake while our dogs teach us about loyalty, companionship and unconditional love. This is the heart of the Golden Retriever.
