| Different breeds do different kinds of work. Just because Goldens aren't trained to bite into a sleeve doesn't mean they cannot be working dogs in the discipline they were actually bred to work at. In my sighthound breed there's also a 'working class' in which they are allowed to enter when they have absolved several successful races and courses. |

| I know several working goldens that are actively doing hunting trials, dock diving, and agility. I know Soaring Goldens in Utah have some dogs titled in those areas |
| Santana Rising |
| I remember a show I went to the best Golden I saw was a working dog. Since they are a hunting breed (well, retrieving that is), he had an actual working license for hunting work. |
| Sylvan Lake Stables |
| They can still hunt and do hunt tests, though maybe not as commonly as other sporting breeds these days |

| Golden Retrievers are such a large breed that there are a lot of different functions and types. There is supposed to be one breed standard but it's inevitable that if people breed for a certain purpose there are going to be variations. Field/hunting goldens have a thinner, shorter functional coat and more lean and athletic. |

| I know some breeds have like show lines verses working lines, but people don't work Goldens lol |
| Santana Rising |
| Might be working lines vs show lines. Every breed has different types that have developed over time and unfortunately in some breeds the show vs working type can almost be considered a different breed altogether. |
| Sylvan Lake Stables |
| Yes there are different lines in lots of breeds! In well bred Goldens you'll see a difference between the show type and the field type, and of course if they're backyard bred then they're not being held to any standard size or shape at all |
