The origin of the golden retriever

The Golden Retriever, which originates from Scotland, is popular all over the world. Its golden coat attracts all living beings, and its naturally docile personality makes people fall in love with it. To trace the history of the Golden Retriever, we have to travel back to 1865. At that time, hunting was popular in Scotland, so medium-sized dogs that were good at hunting wild animals were very popular among hunters.

Later, a nobleman in Scotland tried to breed a yellow Labrador retriever with the now extinct Labrador water retriever. After the breed was improved, it became today's golden retriever. .

Golden Retrievers became popular in the UK, and their popularity continued to increase. They were very popular among the British. In 1903, the first Golden Retriever was officially registered with the British Kennel Club. Eight years later, the British Golden Retriever The Dog Club was established and became famous in England. Later, some tourists who traveled to the UK brought golden retrievers back to the United States, Canada and other places for hunting.
