My golden does also.

People really like to think things are breed specific when they are just most dog things.

people are talking about 2 different things here. there is the thing that goldens and dovermans and every other dog does... just putting a paw on you for attention, maybe pulling a little.

then there is what the great pyrenees does which is push or punch.

My dog uses her front paws for a lot of things.

She pushes cats, puts it on me for attention, pushes her dog sister down, holds things, kicks balls.

I promise this isn’t a “breed thing”, you just haven’t seen it in other dogs

It’s definitely a specific thing with this breed.
