How anyone could beat any dog is beyond me but Goldies are so sweet natured it does my head in.
My 13mo Rotti is pushy, demanding, would love to be boss & his PICA makes training quite challenging.
Under all that he is a very sweet boy.
I shudder to think how he would've been treated by someone less patient or less experienced.
The fact that your boy is your 'best friend & so much fun to be around', shows that the past abuse is, if at all, a distant memory. Bless you for adopting him & giving him a home that he deserves.
