#7 Leer jou kind om nooit ’n hond te steur terwyl hy eet of slaap nie, of om kos daarvan te probeer wegneem. Geen hond, hoe vriendelik ook al, moet ooit sonder toesig by 'n kind gelaat word nie.
#8 The Golden’s attitude towards other animals is: the more, the merrier. He enjoys the company of other dogs and with the right training and introduction to them, he can be trusted to live with cats, rabbits and other animals.

The fact is, however, that the breed was created in Scotland, more precisely entirely on the Highland estate of Sir Dudley Majoribanks, later known as Lord Tweedmouth.
