Female Golden Retrievers usually go into heat for the first time 8-10 months after birth. This is a common phenomenon. There are also individual female Golden Retrievers that will mature early and late. This is normal and parents do not need to worry.

During the estrus period, you should choose a soft kennel for your female Golden Retriever. You must pay attention to the cleanliness of the kennel. After washing, it is best to expose it to the sun for sterilization and disinfection.

If parents have no intention of letting the female golden retriever breed puppies, it is best to put the golden retriever in menstrual pants, which can avoid pregnancy to a certain extent and is also cleaner and hygienic for the golden retriever itself.
