Breed history
The Goldador, often called the Golden Lab or Golden Retriever Lab Mix, is a beloved breed with a rich history.
The Goldador is a cross between the Golden Retriever and the Labrador Retriever—the two most popular retriever breeds in the world. This hybrid is widely used as a guide dog, search and rescue dog, therapy dog, and bomb detection dog due to its exceptional trainability and stable temperament. Guide Dogs for the Blind organizations were among the first to intentionally cross these breeds to produce reliable working dogs.
