I am just curious- what are some habits or quirks your Golden has? Here are some things our 9 month old Sammie does...is your dog similar?
-sometimes he will put his paw on your arm when you are petting him (particularly when he is calm and in a sitting position, and you are in front petting neck/chest area).
-the "golden flop" is when he lays down on the side of his body, arches his back, and attempts to swat my hand as I maneuver closer to his collar in order to move him from a spot that he does not want to move from.
-circles and sniffs at the grass or digs in sand/dirt followed by the "shoulder-bomb"/head rub/body rub into that particular spot.
-when he plays with other dogs, he uses his paws a lot more and also will play defense against the other dog by scooting his butt around to block the incoming play partner.
-loves to lay down and put his head to the ground when you have a fetch toy
-he's very vocal, and communicates his need for going outside, wanting to play, or wanting his crate
-his eyes and face are so expressive!
-most important of all -- he LOVES TO SNUGGLE!
