“I'm really into that Lab on the cover of Nintendogs. He's pretty dreamy.”
― Picture quote, Wild World
“I read in a book that the sun has a strange power to make people happy... Just wanted to share!”
― Goldie, Pocket Camp
Goldie (キャラメル,Kyarameru?, Caramel) is a normaldogvillager from the Animal Crossing series, appearing in every game in the Animal Crossing series to date. Her name may serve as an allusion on the breed of dog she might be: a Golden Retriever. Her catchphrase is a popular way to interpret the sound dogs make. Her Japanese name is a reference to the golden brown confection, which matches her sweet personality and her coloration.
Goldie is a caramel-colored dog that looks like a mix between a Labrador retriever and a golden retriever with a few darker patches of beige on her muzzle, paws, tail, and ears. She has a beige spot on her left eye, of which her eyes are a slim, oblong shape colored into a chocolate brown with cream pupils. She initially wears a Hippie Shirt in Animal Crossing, a Red Check Tee in Wild World, a Dapper Tee in City Folk and New Leaf, and a Tweed Dress in New Horizons. She carries a Toad Parasol on rainy days.
Personality
Below is a brief description of the normal personality. For more information, click here.
Goldie has a normal personality, and frequently acts kind towards the player. Normal villagers generally get along well with lazy, peppy, smug, snooty, and other normal villagers. Goldie may conflict with cranky and sisterly villagers. As a normal villager, Goldie will usually wake up at 6:00 am and is easier to befriend than most. Both normal and peppy villagers reference an unseen friend known as Moppina.
House[]
In Animal Crossing, her house does not have a specific theme.
In Wild World and City Folk, her house has a Birch Flooring and a Blue Trim Wall. Her turntable plays K.K. Bossa. She has a ranch bed, a regal book case, a cream sofa, and a green counter.
Goldie was released with Pocket Camp on October 25, 2017, and is the first campsite visitor if the player picks natural as their theme.
Goldie's preferred theme is natural, and she primarily gives steel as a reward. Her profile reads:
❝ Goldie's luxurious locks are famous for their natural fluff and sweet aroma. Folks always ask her what her secret is, but she just tells them the truth: she doesn't have any secrets.❞

Some animals think that Goldie is a little dull, but that's just because she's easy to get along with. She tends to agree with what people like to make them comfortable-is that so wrong?
Her picture quote in Wild World mentions a Labrador, which contributes to the theory that she is one as well.
She is the only character in Wild World to mention another video game in her picture quote.
In a character popularity poll held on the Japanese Animal Crossing website, Goldie ranked as the 16th most popular character at 935 votes, ranking above Porter but below Olivia.
