| The Golden Retriever lives to give. They give you all they have, whether in performance or companionship. They need to be with people, and they are everyone's best friend. They are active, shed a lot, have a need to carry things, and tend to dig. Therefore, if you are looking for a watchdog or a one man dog, if you cannot tolerate dog hair, or if you have little time or energy to devote to a dog, this is not the breed for you. We suggest you contact the American Kennel Club for more information on breed characteristics. |

Dogs, Cats & Kids is designed for children in grades K through 4:
Dogs & Cats & Kids teaches respect for animals without creating fear. With lots of appealing dogs and
cats, remarkable animal footage, and a positive, kid-friendly approach, the video shows children how to
be safe around pets and strays. Young people learn a few simple rules for avoiding potentially
dangerous situations and dealing with them if they occur. The video’s information is presented in an
age-appropriate way, within the skill level and motor abilities of young children. At the end of the
video, an interactive, "game show" quiz reinforces learning.
For older children:
A companion video, Dogs, Cats & BIG Kids, is available for older children (grades 4 to 8). With an age-
appropriate approach, it includes the same important information and award-winning footage, and
adds new bite prevention skills within the abilities of kids in the upper grades. It is widely praised by
parents and professionals and, most importantly, kids love it.
