    Yeah... I guess you could say that he definitely resembles a Golden...

    One of the first things anyone can do when trying guess their dogs breed is to try and strip him of any of his markings. Since color can be picked up by an intoduction of any cross breeding, it is sometimes helpful to imagine that your dog was colored similarly to the breed that his body shape and coat type most closely resembles. SEE PHOTO ATTACHED!!!

    With that said... there are also certain things to look for when assessing the color - such as brindling, marleing, flecking and ticks - to mention a few, that may be tailtail (get it - tailtail) signs of ancestry. I do think your boy sure looks like he could be a Golden!!!
