1. Pay attention to your veterinarian since they are the ones who know your dog best and can advise you on the best course of action for maintaining their health.

Pay attention to your dog. If you see that they respond poorly to specific foods or activities, mix it up. They communicate even when they are not speaking.

3. Feed your dog high-quality food since it will promote greater health, a happier dog, and you'll save money by not having to pay as many vet expenses if you feed your dog subpar food.

5. Lastly, give your golden retriever frequent exercise to maintain a healthy heart and muscular system.

That is great counsel.
