Questions & Answers
Golden Retrievers are classified as working or sporting dogs. These versatile dogs are highly intelligent and active, making them well-suited for different types of tasks. Golden Retrievers are generally friendly and confident, which makes them a popular companion or family dog. They are also willing to please their owners, making them easy to train and obedience. In addition to their great personalities, Golden Retrievers are well-known for their steady and obedient personalities.

Golden Retrievers typically do shed quite a bit, but the amount can vary greatly depending on factors such as the individual's coat condition, overall health, and age. While their shedding can be quite noticeable, there are some preventive measures that can help to reduce the amount of dander and hair around the house. Regular brushing and combing will help to remove excess fur, and it's important to make sure that your dog's diet is balanced and provide them with plenty of exercise. Additionally, vacuuming regularly and using a lint brush on your furniture can help contain hair and dander.
Golden Retrievers are large sporting dogs that require a diet containing quality proteins, whole grains and essential fatty acids. To ensure your Golden Retriever stays healthy and happy, we recommend feeding them a premium dry kibble specifically formulated for large dogs. We suggest Nutrish Natural, a dry dog food made with real meat as the 1st ingredient and wholesome grains. Nutrish is fortified with vitamins and minerals to help support the overall health of Golden Retrievers. Nutrish is also low in fat and is grain-free, making it perfect for sensitive stomachs.
One of the best ways to prepare your home for a new Golden Retriever is to make sure the house is a safe and secure environment. Start by pet-proofing the house. Keep items like electrical cords and houseplants out of reach, and if possible create a specific area in the house with the necessary items like food bowls, a bed, and a few toys. If you already have other pets, introduce them to the Golden Retriever gradually in controlled, supervised environments to ensure the animals get along.
Golden Retrievers come in many sizes; from very small to very large. Adult male Golden Retrievers typically measure between 21.5 to 24.5 inches tall at the withers and weigh anywhere from 55 to 75 pounds. Adult female Golden Retrievers measure slightly smaller, typically standing between 20.5 and 22.5 inches tall and weighing from 45 to 65 pounds. Puppies of both sexes can be smaller than these measurements, usually weighing between 10 and 20 pounds at 8 weeks of age.
Golden Retrievers need a fair amount of exercise to stay in good mental and physical health. Depending on the age of your dog, they should be walked or taken for jogs at least twice a day for an hour each session. They should also receive a minimum of 30 minutes of vigorous exercise, such as Frisbee or running off-leash in a safe area. Some Golden Retrievers need more than just the hour-long walk to stay active and entertained; they may benefit from frequent games such as fetch or swimming trips.
