Golden retriever puppies do not need much exercise, especially when the weather is hot. The best exercise for a puppy is to let him run freely on the grass. From four to six months on, you can start taking him for walks (never use a bicycle or motorcycle), but don’t walk too far at the beginning, and gradually increase the walking distance.
Never let golden retriever puppies (under 12 months old) play roughly with other dogs, especially large dogs. Golden retriever puppies' rapidly growing limbs are easily injured.
Do not run with your Golden Retriever puppies before they are 12 months old, as this will put too much pressure on the bones that have not yet been fully calcified. If you want to take your golden retriever puppy for a run after he is 12 months old, remember not to run too far at the beginning, but gradually increase the running distance.
Before golden retriever puppies are four and a half months old, do not let them go up and down stairs on their own. Be careful when getting in and out of the car. If it is too high from the ground (such as the rear trunk), do not let him get in and out by himself. Hold him instead.
If your Golden Retriever puppy is too fat, do not increase his or her amount of exercise. First reduce the amount of food eaten until the weight returns to normal, and then slowly increase the amount of exercise and food intake until the two are balanced. If an overweight puppy is allowed to exercise excessively, it can cause permanent damage to the bones.
Swimming is a good sport. Golden retriever puppies like to swim, but they must gradually get used to the water. It is best if you swim with him. Pay attention to drying the whole body before going to bed, especially the ears must be kept dry to avoid infection. Some dogs are allergic to salt (sea water). After swimming in the sea, they must use fresh water to wash away the salt as soon as possible.
A golden retriever is considered an adult dog when it is 21 months old. Remember that he is a hunting dog and needs proper outdoor exercise, as well as proper food and care.
Autumn is also the season for golden retrievers to change their hair. The thick winter coat will fall off. If it is not combed regularly and promptly, the unclean skin will cause itching. The dog will rub the body or scratch to eliminate the itching. If this is the case, the skin will be easily broken. , easy to cause bacterial infection. Dirty coats are also easy to felt, providing favorable conditions for the reproduction of fungi and parasites outside the body, which can cause skin diseases. Therefore, attention should be paid to cleaning and combing the coat in autumn to prevent skin diseases.
