Do golden retrievers really shed that much? I was considering getting
one but my wife is hesitant because of the hair. If we keep up with
brushing and bathing the dog will the house and our clothes still be
covered in hair?

Yes, but less so. I find a few tools very useful. An undercoat rake.
A Dyson Vacuum cleaner. A lint brush.

Something you may want to consider is becoming a foster home for a
Golden Retriever rescue. You can experience living with some wonderful
dogs while seeing what the impact on your household is, and helping some
dogs in need on their way to a forever home.

Personally, the added bit of fashion accessory is totally worth it for
me.
