A Golden Retriever. I just had to put Sandy ,our 13 year old, down last Saturday. She still occasionally could run but she came down with mouth cancer and I didn't want to see her suffer. We got her from a rescue when she was 7. She was the happiest dog that I've ever known. She was an old-school golden, with the redder, shorter fur, longer legs and narrow head with a bump in the middle. Not these long haired, blonde things that the AKC calls Goldens.
