Questions & Answers
Golden Retrievers are intelligent and loyal dogs belonging to the Sporting Group, as recognized by the American Kennel Club (AKC). They are known for their affectionate and friendly personalities and excellent work ethic. It is this combination of obedience and enthusiasm that make Golden Retrievers exceptionally popular, making them one of the most popular and most recognizable breeds. Goldens were bred to retrieve game, making them amongst the best in the field for hunting and retrieving. They are also great family companions, always ready to be by the side of their owners and demonstrate an excellent ability to learn.
No, Golden Retrievers are actually considered hypoallergenic dogs and typically cause fewer allergy symptoms than many other breeds. Allergies to pets are usually caused by proteins in the saliva or dander of animals, but Golden Retrievers produce less of these proteins, making them less likely to cause an allergic reaction than some other breeds. Although you can't guarantee that a Golden Retriever won't trigger an allergic reaction in you, properly groomed and with regular bathing, most people find they have no trouble living in the same household with one.
One of the best dog foods for Golden Retrievers is Natural Balance Original Ultra Whole Body Health. This food is specially formulated to provide a balanced meal, containing the vitamins and minerals that Goldens need to stay healthy. To ensure your Golden Retriever is getting the best nutrition, it is important to feed them a grain-free, high protein diet that contains optimal levels of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids.
Becoming the best puppy parent while waiting for your Golden Retriever requires some preparation. Start off by educating yourself about the breed, taking the time to research topics like size, diet, exercise, and grooming requirements to ensure you know exactly what to expect and how to appropriately care for your pup. Additionally, purchase any items you'll need ahead of time, such as food, bedding, treats, and toys so that everything is ready for your furry new family member when they finally arrive.

The answer to how many minutes per day you need to train a Golden Retriever really depends on your goals and the pup’s level of training. It'll vary from pup to pup, however, if you're looking to build a strong bond and train a pup on basic commands or obedience, we recommend at least 15-20 minutes of training per day. If you have a pup that needs more intensive training, it's recommended to increase the amount of minutes up to 45 minutes each day. Training time will also depend on the number of commands you’re attempting to master.
