A Comfort Golden highly resembles a Golden Retriever, but are a lot smaller. Usually weighing around 35 to 45 pounds, and about 16 to 17 inches tall. They are usually a cross between a Golden Retriever, and a Cocker Spaniel. This cross has been around for a very long time, and have proven themselves to make an excellent dog, in a much smaller size, as not to overwhelm children. Very fun, playful, easy to train loving dogs!
Variations
A Comfort Golden is at least 50% Golden Retriever, other breeds may be one or more of the following breeds: American Cocker Spaniel, English Cocker Spaniel, Cavalier Spaniel, or Poodle. Never more then 25% Poodle. Other Spaniel breeds may occasionally also be used?
Mini Comfort Goldens have less then 50% Golden Retriever in them. Uusally being from 25% to 37.5%. While still not having more then 25% Poodle, and the remaining being Spaniel. These dogs are bred to be even smaller, 15 inches tall and less, and even more lower shedding. While keeping a fun, sweet, gentle temperament! More information on Mini Comfort Goldens HERE
About Our Comfort Goldens
Most of our Comfort Goldens are bred from Comfort Goldens. So, they are 2nd or 3rd generation. They are 50% Golden, and 25% to 50% American Cocker, and up to 25% English Cocker. We do also occasionally breed our very small Golden Retrievers, Princess & Peaches, to our Comfort males, for Comfort that are 75% Golden Retriever.
We are thriving to perfect them, into a perfect family dog! Being super smart & easy to train, very fun, (fetch, love water, playful), but also calm & cuddly, extremely gentle, and lower shedding, in a perfect medium size! Their coat is straight to wavy, never real curly. Colors will also vary! Though they will mostly be the typical "Golden" colors, we will also have chocolates, blacks, tan markings, Sables, and partis available. We always include a pedigree with our puppies!
Our ulimate goal is Comforts that are 50% Golden, 25% American Cocker, and 25% English Cocker. We find this combination to highly resemble a very small Golden Retriever, with a nice, smooth, coat, and easy to train, fun, gentle, very loving, friendly dogs!
