My 80 lb. Golden Retriever can knock me for a loop when I get home.

I'll see your 80 lbs and raise you 105 lbs. My golden retriever is the biggest bundle of love and loves to play like that - tho he doesn't mouth like he did when he was a puppy. He will happily greet you face to face when you visit and remove every bit of makeup he can. (A habit we are trying to break!)

This is completely blown out of proportion. Kids this age should be able to rough house with a dog and get a few scratches without being traumatized.

Yep, nothing like a big Golden to knock you off your feet... with love! We miss ours (she died last year) but the Mrs. says no more ...
