History of the Golden Retriever
Doglr - For almost any other race convincingly establish their origins is a matter of controversy. However, in the case of the Golden Retriever has prevailed only one version, given that there is a private book of sources detailing the process of selection of individuals that created it.
It's origin goes back to the year 1858, moment in which sir Dudley Coutts Marjoribanks, who subsequently became lord Tweedmouth, acquired a group of dogs in a Russian circus that set up his tent in Brighton (England). Those dogs received the name of trackers Russians, an ancient Caucasian race destined to the custody of the livestock. It's size was 76 cm at the Withers, weighting about 45 kilograms and possessed a good fur given the climatic characteristics of the area of origin. For ten years he crossed them, until at the request of the hunters in the area it did with other breeds, which scored in their particular book of origins, which is preserved in the British Kennel Club and became public in 1952.
Description of the Golden Retriever
The Golden Retriever's general appearance should be a harmonious, well proportioned, active, powerful, well planted dog in their wanderings, of robust Constitution and sweet expression. The head is well sculpted and well proportioned; the skull is long and wide, without being heavy; the muzzle is powerful, long and wide, with a similar length to the skull, measured from the stop, which is well defined, to the back of the head; the truffle is black; the eyes are dark brown and well separated; the edge of the eyelids is very dark; the ears are medium-sized and implanted almost to the height of the eyes, take them glued to the face. The back is well balanced; the dorsal line is horizontal. The tail is established and takes it to the height of the back; it reaches to the Hock and is not screwed in the end. The size can range in males between 56 and 61 cm, and females, between 51 and 56 cm. The forelimbs are straight and have a good bone structure. The hind legs are strong and muscular.
There is a variety of color, although it admits any shade of gold or cream. It should not be red or mahogany. Only supported the presence of some white hairs on the chest. All copies must have smooth or wavy, hair with good and abundant fringe. The Undercoat is dense and waterproof. Energetic activity, with much momentum. The front and rear legs move in planes parallel to the axis of the body. The stride is long and loose without any tendency to lift the front.
