    My husband has to sleep with a fan by him because we have our dachshund between us, and she is a furnace. She loves the heat, but he can’t sleep unless it’s cool. I’m just on my side trying not to fall off.

      as much as I heat up easily the golden does more than me. I will snuggle her on the couch and she is the first to heat up to much and having to go lie on the kitchen tile.

        It’s all the hair! When I had a pit bull, she was so “naked” with her short fur and no undercoat, she was constantly cold.

          yeah that doublecoat is insane. One thing that drove my wife and I nuts is in extreme cold our old goldens response was wanting to hunker down. It was like, just use the bathroom! the house is heated! If the golden is comfortable we are freezing our buts off.
