If I were forced to pick, I would say Golden. I do love the other breeds, but I guess I have known more Goldens. My first dog was ALMOST a Golden. I fell in LOVE with this little puppy when I was in 3rd grade. My parents promised me a dog since we had to move again (dad is in oil, we moved all the time and I hated it). Unfortunately I met the Golden a couple weeks before we moved across the state and my parents wanted to wait until after the move. I begged and pleaded and cried as much as I could, but they didn't give in. I am glad I was blessed with my Lab after the move though Opps, I'm rambling.
