Golden retriever desktop pet for Mac

The golden retriever is the friendliest face in the pack. On your Mac it trots along the bottom of the screen with a big, easy wag, stops to say hello, and greets every break with a cheerful bark.

Meet the golden retriever

Everything about it is warm and unhurried: a soft golden coat, floppy ears and a tongue that is usually out. Pick it if you want the classic, sunny desktop companion that makes a long working day feel a little lighter.

Its break-time sound is a bark, shown as a speech bubble (sound is off until you turn it on).

Questions about the golden retriever

What does the golden retriever do on my Mac desktop?

The golden retriever walks along the bottom of your screen, hops, wags its tail, cleans your screen with a lick and naps standing up while you focus. Clicks pass straight through its window, so it never blocks your work.

Can I switch from the golden retriever to another pet?

Yes. All sixteen DeskyPaw pets are included in the one-time price, and you can switch between them any time from the paw menu in the menu bar. The free 3-day trial includes every pet.
