Goldie is anormaldogvillager in theAnimal Crossing series who appears in all games to date. Her name is likely derived from theGolden Retriever, a breed of dog which she bears a resemblance to. Her catchphrase is onomatopoeia of a dog's bark, relating to her species.
InNew Horizons, Goldie has the naturehobby and may be found reading a book pertaining to an item she is studying, which can be either flowers, bugs, fish, or fossils.
Characteristics[edit]
Appearance[edit]
Goldie is a golden dog that resembles a Golden Retriever, hence her name. She has a few darker patches of beige on her muzzle, paws, feet, tail, and ears, as well as a beige spot on her left eye. Her eyes are oblong with brown sclera and white pupils.
Personality[edit]
Below is a brief description of thenormal personality. For more information, clickhere.
Goldie has a normal personality, meaning that she is friendly and motherly towards the player, asking what she can do to help them often. She also enjoys the usual hobbies, though she feels neutral about them, hence her personality name. When asking theplayer for favors, Goldie often feels bad asking the player to do so, as she is sensitive and easily gets sad, although she rarely gets angry. She gets along with most villagers, except those who arecranky, and sometimes evensnooty. Most normal villagers take a moderate amount of time to befriend, and the player must be patient in attempting to receive her picture. She wakes up at 5 AM like other normal villagers, and goes to sleep at 1 AM. At a point she will want to collect clothing, so she will ask the player to try and find a certain piece of clothing, as some villagers do the same. The player may also receive her picture if they do this many times.
