A goofy golden with a twisty tail! Supposedly this pup is all golden, but I’ve never seen one with a tail that curly before.

It’s absolutely normal for a golden to have a curve to their tail. The breed standard says ‘fairly straight’, and a tail this curly would definitely be considered a ‘fault’, but if I understand these things correctly wouldn’t mean disqualification.
Basically, your pup is (probably, I’ve never met him!) a full-blooded golden retriever, and could be entered into dog shows if you wished to, but probably wouldn’t win first prize for conformation.
I was just being surprised because I’d never seen a tail that curly before. I have since, though.
