#13 The main problem for the owner of the golden retriever is his pet’s coat.
During the molting period, golden leaves fluffy marks wherever possible, and daily combing does not help much here. There are only two ways out of this situation: do not buy a golden retriever at all, or put up with this peculiarity of the dog and purchase a powerful vacuum cleaner in order to clean up shreds after it from time to time.
#14 In the periods between molting, the animal’s coat does not require such careful care, but a couple of times a week you will still have to comb through the dog’s “fur coat”.
A bath for Goldens is arranged once a month and that is quite enough. After bathing, you can shorten your pet's coat slightly. The hair is trimmed from the bottom up, starting from the neck. It is not forbidden to walk with scissors on the feathers on the paws, and the "pants" of the dog. Hair growing between the toes and at the base of the tail should also be trimmed regularly.
#15 Most Golden Retrievers have no problems with their eyes and ears, so a standard weekly check-up is enough for them.
If dirt has accumulated in the ear funnel, it can be removed with a napkin and boiled water. Chilled tea leaves are good for treating the eyes. Brushing Golden's teeth is a laborious but necessary process. If you cannot clean the oral cavity in the classical way, you can entrust this matter to dry food or special treats, whose solid particles function as abrasives that “erase” plaque.
