Being a Golden Retriever Owner I can tell that it's not as easy as it seems to raise a Goldie. Even though they are one of the most intelligent and gentle dogs, there are quite a few challenges that every new parent goes through. So I decided to share all the advice and tips for raising a Golden Retriever.

For those thinking about which breed to pick, from personal experience, golden retreivers are absolutely the best! But be prepared for a few things:
1) they'll steal your heart and you'll be okay with that, it's their superpower,
2) they are the quintessential extrovert, they need and love people, so if they stop listening to you around new people, that's normal, lol
3) going potty won't be done under a minute, they are not in a hurry and need to smell EVERYTHING first,
4) expect the unexpected, they have bright, full personalities, a contagious joy and are very curious creatures, they will surprise you with how they act
5) they absolutely love and go stupid crazy over the tennis ball but can't catch it to save their lives, and last...
6) you'll shatter when they pass away, it was easy to overlook just how much joy she brought to me every day (because I got to enjoy it every day!), nothing will fill that space again, you'll just have to learn to live with one more hole in your heart. Don't let this deter you though, looking back, it was SO worth it.
RIP Whisper 2000-2014, I'll see you again over rainbow bridge.
Mine died because of cancer only 1 month ago, and I’m completely shattered. I cry from missing him every day.
@@kenazfehu7176 Mine had to be euthanized due to kidney failure. When she took her last breath, I.... broke. down. I lost a part of me that day. I still have her dog tag on my keychain. I learned that talking about the good memories and the funny moments help deal with the pain of loss. There were MANY funny moments!
Wonderful list. The tennis ball thing, what’s up with that. Hahaha
We got two boys from the same litter as pups and boy was it hard for the first year but I am so in love with my babies. It pains me when the negative thought of them passing away sneaks into my mind and I can feel the tears welling up in my eyes threatening to break my heart.
Your golden baby made it to 14yrs! That’s amazing. I pray ours will too.
Rest In Peace
Ohh... So sad... Rip wisper... And thanq so much for sharing a priceless msg..
As soon as I have a better living space, I’ll definitely get one. I’m melting at this 🥺
They surely are amazing :)
You can buy pug instead if you have space problem

Its not a space thing with a golden believe it or not. I feel like this is a common dog misconception. Its all about a dogs energy levels and the exercise they get. I had a belgen malanois in an apartment and he did just fine. But i took him for long walks before and after work often id find a fenced area like a school yard and let him off leash
I have had great parents, friends, and relationships, but the three most wonderful loves of my life have been my goldens. They have given me a special happiness that can't be explained.
Me too :)
Yes they surely bring joy to our lives :)
The Goldie has such a magical way of making us forget that they are not human.
Agree with you
I totally agree!
I love my Golden to pieces. It was tiring training him when younger but perseverance and consistency pay of into adulthood. Great information here.

"Golden retrievers are not bred to be guard dogs, and considering the size
of their hearts and their irrepressible joy in life, they are less likely to
bite than to bark, less likely to bark than to lick a hand in greeting. In spite
of their size, they think they are lap dogs, and in spite of being dogs, they think
they are also human, and nearly every human they meet is judged to have the potential to
be a boon companion who might, at many moment, cry, "Let's go!" and lead them on a great adventure." ~ Dean Koontz
Exactly! My Winnie would run immediately to get a tug toy to offer them. LOL
I was astonished when I had to crash at my friend’s parent’s place for a night and both of their golden retrievers came to sleep at the foot of my bed rather than at their owner’s bed. What an honor!
Golden Retrievers are surely amazing!
they're less likley to bite than to bark , less likley bark than to lick
is there a different way to say this because I do not understand whatever formula that is conveying
@@mind_of_A Because they want to be everyone's friend.
I got a brand new baby Goldie and he is the sweetest thing ever😍😍🥰🥰☺☺😚😚🥺🥺
All good advice. My 6 month old golden demands a huge amount of attention and exercise when she’s awake! They love car rides ! A super loving and super fun breed. But high maintenance.
monthly cost around?
Our Simba loves car rides too :)
@@Manavvv7 uhh just food besides vet visits lmao
I wish our goldie loved the car, She wasn't too bad at first but now we struggle to get her in, even with chicken in the offing. She's 16 months old. I can only think it's the bumps in the roads she doesn't like. Usually have the widows down or air con if it's a warm day.
Aww thanks so much for these tips!! Definitely helps with my goldie Nessa 💕 💓
All dogs need a loving owner. Adopting a dog from your local animal shelter is also a choice rather than promoting dog breeding. You’d be saving an animal’s life, getting a best friend, and you’d be doing good for the animals already here needing a home. Please think about adopting your pet. Thanks for your time reading this. 💙💙💙
my golden's low energy and low maintenance but he's a rare one LOL he's super chill and is super loyal to me. love him to bits.
That is so sweet :) but maybe your dog's low energy could be the result of lack of exercise. You can check this video out to know more about the Golden Retrievers and How much exercise they need - th-cam.com/video/BAEMBU8T8N0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much! My family is thinking about getting one and we are now fully prepared for one!
Wow, such a great video. I got my golden retriever last month and this video is really helpful for me. Great job.
At a year and a half, Dublin is still in that teenage phase. I love your videos.
Thanks for those advice! I was thinking about buying a Golden Retriever, so this was very helpful! :)
Glad it was helpful!
NOW I NEED TO GET ONE I LOVE THEM!!!❤️
I have my 4th Golden now and he is 10 years old. At age 2, he became a Therapy Dog. That was the best thing for him! He loved the attention and doing a job. Came home very tired.
He is amazing and I love him sooo much! Yes, make sure you get a good breeder. I learned that from other dogs I have had.
My buddy is turning 2 in late November and dude has so much energy still even after 2 1 hour walks a day. Love my golden tho best dog breed
I can totally understand. My Simba is the same.
Thank you for sharing Good luck everyone Happy New year 💖💖💖💖💖💖
aren't Goldies the best 😍
Yes they are 😍
Yes they are
I love them
Sad I messed up the no. :v
It was 69 😂
They are 😍😍😍
Great info. thank you for sharing this video.
Thanks so much for this!!! We are planning on getting one in December ❤️
Wow that is so great :) I'm sure you will have the best memories with your cute and fluffy golden!
So, have yoy got one??
thank you for this vid cause i really wanted a golden retriever
Glad we could help!
Had golden retrievers for over 30 years. Love them to bits. Currently have 5. If I lose my balance they allow me to grab them.
They try to be lap dogs but they are very cuddly. One of them often barks at me because he wants to play. But I am a softie and he knows it.
I have 3 right now and I cannot imagine a life without a Golden in it 🥺💛
Woow that's amazing.
I’m getting a golden on Monday and this is really helpful
We lost our amazing golden 2 years ago we miss him so much he was an incredable family dog great with the grandkids and everybodys friend just a special breed ❤
I have 2 Golden Retrievers (2 and 3 y/o)... They do not need supplements if they eat healthy (dog food) and according to their vet.. they do not need a bath every week, on the contrary I've been told not to bath them more often than once a month (unless the play on mud)
This is our second Golden Retriever. I agree They, they do not need supplements if they eat healthy natural dog food. Poppy loves fish, so we sometimes give her tinned fish in oil (with a bit of the oil). Our vet commented what a nice shiny coat she has & says she is really fit & healthy (she's eight). He also recommended not to bath her more than twice a year otherwise it strips their coat of natural oils, etc. Obviously if they roll in something disgusting, like fox pooh, you have no choice. If Poppy just gets muddy, we dry her with a towel & brush the rest out when she's dry.
Golden retrievees are the Closest things we have had to angels
That is absolutely correct :)
We love our 💛golden girl. Wouldn’t have it any other way. But yes…so true on your video! Our girl will be six in May and totally acts like a teenager.
Good advice. I have no regrets owning one.
My heart cannot take the 🌈🌈 at the moment. The loss of my best friend still lingers after 7 years. I’m sure that I will find another Goldie at the right moment. Until then, I’ll just watch from the sidelines.
Yes totally agreed. This golden furry balls are so cute and so hard to forget. I just cannot imagine my life without simba :)
Mmmmm
We lose our Abbie and within a week a good friend found us another one, Annie. Annie was born the same day Abbie had to be put down. A blessing to us. Then Annie had to be put down at 12 years. Our next one Maggie came along within 6 months. We all need to remember they don't live forever. We will outlive our puppies. So if you enjoyed your puppy, get another one and enjoy him or her as long as you can. Give them love and they give it back. Think about it, once they are born they need someone and that someone can be you.
I lost my golden retreiver in 2014. Had her since she was weened at 6 weeks. I still remember the first time I picked her up. Without even trying she stole the heart right out of me. I was so blessed to have had her. Part of me wants another dog someday, but I'm just not ready.
@@briandaniels7493 All you need to do is go look at some puppies. You will be ready. We said the same thing you did, but the heart takes over. Once they are born, they need someone. Once they have returned to Heaven, not much we can do about that other than pray we can be with them again. They do not live as long as people. The fact is you will out live them. The sad part is when that time comes and perhaps way too early because of cancer or something else. I know your feelings. Our Annie's ashes are here at the house and will be with us someday, but in the mean time we have Maggie. Yes, she is different. They all are a little different. But the love, the obedience and the fun playing is what they live for. They always want to PLEASE and it's up to us the PLEASE them too. I do hope you change your mind. Sounds like you love em like we do. One thing you might do is pick one out that can lay like a frog. That means good legs and hips. See if mom and dad have been tested for heart issues and eye issues. Many breeders, at least the good ones, are doing that hoping that the Golden breed will cut back on those kinds of common problems. Good Luck!
great video i love you video keep making more about goldies
I am glad. Thanks a lot 😊
Had always loved/was good with dogs all my life, never had a chance to own one of mine though until 4 years back...my dream came true n i was able to become a dad for sheldon, there's only one word i get in mind when i see him or any/all goldens....Angels 😇
I was super lucky to have my boy in this life! Enjoying it thoroughly! Hahaha best dog ever man golden retriever!!!
0:05 me too and i havent got my Golden retriever yet so I'm confident i know a lot about them
Haha! I promise you won't regret it :)
This is helpful thanks
I have a golden retriever now so this video helped 😊
I got mine from my daughter who bred the parents and they are champions. My Dixie is now 15 months old. I had my 2nd hip replacement surgery last week so im staying at my daughter's. My husband brought Dixie over to see me which upset our daughter because dad has been encouraging Dixie to jump up on him for hugs. I think (hope) that he has finally gotten the message to not do that anymore. She is our 1st Golden and if id known how wonderful the breed is, i would have gotten a Golden years ago!
Puppies bite when they are taken away from their mothers too soon and are not shown corrective behavior by her. Bad Breeders tend to take away puppies too soon. If you’re being offered a pup who has been with its mother and pack less then 8 weeks I recommend you go with someone else.
Totally agreed, yes the ideal minimum time that the puppy should be able to separate from its mother is 8 weeks but still, many ethologists also claim that the puppy should be with its mother until 12 weeks of age.
Your videos are great and helped so mch
i am getting a golden retriver at june 25 and today is june 22 thank u for making this video
Nice same voice used on MSA videos! Def following I’m looking into getting a golden retriever puppy for my son who has several disabilities and I want them to be a service dog so I’m researching right now
We've had two golden's and I can't imagine a better creature to have ever inhabited this planet! Smart, funny, loving, affectionate, did I mention funny? My biggest complaint about them is that it's true, they shed like monsters, secondly they depart this world all too soon leaving you devastated; like losing a close member of your family which in fact, they are. Otherwise, you can't do better than having a golden retriever in your life.......really!
They are surely the best :)
They are so beautiful and precious how can anyone complain about their shedding.
@@caroldurham893 It's not really a big issue with us as we've since acquired our third golden. They are just too lovable and wonderful to describe!
Wonderful, thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Awww! The puppies are so cute! My Golden is 4 yrs old. Happy and healthy!
Oh that's amazing. : )
thanks so much dear for ur advice..my golden puppy will arrive by feb 26th of 2022
eagerly waiting 4 him💕💕
I can’t wait to get one. ❤️ my heart
10 golden retriever puppies were just born last week and I'm so excited cause I'm gonna get one in January
I have never loved a dog this much in my life. Best dogs ever!
We only leave him kenneld for a few hours once a week while we are all at work. Last week, i forgot to close the kennel door. When i came home to check on him, he was still in his kennel like a good boy with the door wide open :)
my GR's almost 2, he has no plans to calm down 😂
Our 4 year old Golden boy is still as peppy as a puppy. :D
Well they are golden retrievers, can you blame them :)
I would tell the same thing for my little simba :)
My fav breed is Golden Retriever only :) and at my Birthday means after 1 month am getting my Golden pup, and I am soooooooooo muchhhh excited 🤩❤❤
That is awesome! I promise you won't regret this :)
@@RetrieverCare Yes :)
I love these dogs so much.
Great video we just got a 9 week old golden boy
Thanks you it helped!
Thanks for this video i am asking my mom and dad to get a golden retriever all love them that's why i need to know them thanks....😊😊😊
Glad I could help!
me and my family are about to get one in less than a month, i am a brother out of a family of 5 and have a very big house, i cant wait to get her and to start running around the backyard everyday and learn to take care of her
That is so great! Also have you thought of a name? :)
@@RetrieverCare i got her just saturday, my mom surprised us, we named her Lily
I'll never be without a pack of Goldens. I have five. Best dogs ever, hands down.
You are one very special and lucky person with an awfully big heart. Two Goldies can be a house full but 5 definitely keeps you busy. I find it difficult to love any breed as much as the Goldie.
WOOW, I can only imaging handling 5 of these.
@@RetrieverCare It's really not that difficult. We have been showing and breeding Goldens for 20 years. They are extremely easy to train and eager to please. Having multiple Goldens really isn't a huge chore, aside from vacuuming and sweeping up all the hair.
I'm getting an 8 week old pup tomorrow. I'm so excited but really nervous. I've had dogs in the past but have never been this excited
I back this 110%!!! All the good and all the you need to know.
The first year is really rough. No, not a little, it’s rough. It’s worth it but follow this channel.!it’s very true. Says a owner of a 5 year old golden.
We're so glad :)
I love golden retriever. 🥰🥰
I have 6 yrs old female golden retriever 6 yrs old , AMBER.🥰🥰🥰
I loves my Amber soooooo much, I also get sometimes separation anxiety from my dear Amber. 😭😭 She loves to around me.🤗🤗
Amber is loving, caring, selfless, adorable, well behaved sweet baby🥰🥰
She understand everything. She want treat all the time 😍😍
Aww Amber seems like such a good girl :)
I thank you the most
very imformative… thnks
you already have 2 beagles and now did u get a goldie as well..it must be so amazing..but inst that a lot of energy in the house? >< I have a beagle so I can understand the insane energy levels but 2 beagles and a golden retriever must make the most loving home ever . congratulations :))
Yes our house is surely a energy packed place but we love all the breeds we own and they are the best :)
You are also the owner of the channel called beagle care right? I watched beagle care bc we were going to get a beagle but we wanted kinda big dogs so we thought to get golden ritriver ❣️ also thx bc now I know some things about golden ritriver and one more thing I am also a subscriber of your both Channel’s ❤️❤️
I have a golden retriever as well and agree with everything in the video but with one exception- please do not shampoo and condition your dog every week! It is not good for their skin! I only use shampoo and conditioner when absolutely necessary because of dirt/stink. Most of the time it is enough to just shower them off with water or even just rub them clean with a towel.
So adorable
Not being alone is soo true..I literally have to sit with her for half hour before she falls asleep completely 😅
When I am getting a big house, I am getting this dog breed no matter what, no huskies, no shepherds, just Golden Retrievers, these cuties melt my heart.
I have a mini golden retriever her name is ginger I love her to death...she is 2 your video are the best you help me so much..love Sophia
I got my golden retriever when he was 2 months old, and while he was hyper, he never bit anyone
Ello, the same person from beagle care. I was abt to get a beagle brother for my Labrador but i thought lets get a golden retriever. So i was searching golden retriever care and here i saw u same voice and video editing so i found you. I’m finally so happy i found the best advicer for dog ever
Haha yeah. I am glad I could be of any help :)
@@RetrieverCare tysm
You got that right lots of things people must know....they are adorable as puppy also lots of work as well. I get exchusted. 2 eyes at all time if you don't want your house smell like poop and pee among other things. They are a handful FYI. Full time caregiver in another word until they're trained or reach adult ag.
With great love, comes great responsibility
I will always love a golden retriever to love them and adore them for years and years I will always love a golden retriever to adore them for years and years of my life. They are my favorite dog and I always will forever love them.
I got my retriever from the pound he’s now 7 years young I love him
I love them 💖💖💖
I am one of those really lucky/fortunate GR owners. I was awarded my GR Service Dog in January. She is my Angel from God. Lots of work, for sure. I have my own grooming equipment and table now. I can't afford taking her into a groomer. I am doing pretty good though, thanks to TH-cam. The investment of grooming table, clipping equipment, and Pro groomer dryer pays for itself real fast. I did buy an expensive vacuum that deals with pet hair better than any I have seen. Grooming, and vacuuming is definitely a daily thing. Deal with it, and LOVE it. GR's are way more than worth it.
That is absolutely correct :)
I just put my 12-year-old best friend down. When the vet says that it's not a tumor, maybe it's best to get a biopsy anyway.
Such a great family dog! My third such child, in a row. Saying goodbye to them has been more than awful. They give so much
unconditional love, affection, adventure!
I just lost mine at 12 years old . I loved him so much. His name was Wilson!
I am a Dachshund owner but goldies are my favorites.
Mine too! Please don’t tell my spaniel.
@@mrcohiba1662 😄
I wanted to get golden Retriever puppy but my mother is scared of the pupy
That is unfortunate :(
I love Golden retrievers ❤
Thanks for the video. Does anyone know any reputable breeders in the central florida area?
I have a beagle and golden retriever but they don’t get anxiety if I leave them for a week in the home also cuz they play with each other ☺️
Yeah that's true, they both have each other's company. But please don't leave them alone for a week. They need human attention.
@@RetrieverCare that is very rare and emergency situation so I left my dog alone and I won’t do it again .and bro kindly can you put day in grottos life in beagle care channel
My golden retriever i have now is the lowest maintenance dog I've ever had. But he does shed......a lot
My mom and dad said I could get a puppy and I decided to get a golden retriever it hasn't come yet and this video helped me A lot thank you for posting this video
Its a great decision however we had to convince our parents a lot for our Simba😄 There's no doubt those chubby creatures will always be by your side no matter what. We're really glad we could be of any help :) Thank you so much!
Buying a golden retriever thinking it from last year now buying just finding a good broader to buy from ;)
I have a golden doodle
But his personality is 100% golden retriever.
- he has crazy energy
- hes friendly with all people, children and dogs
- bad seperation anxiety
- he naturally fetches. I didnt have to train him to play fetch i throw the ball he brings it back, i throw the stick he brings it back i throw a toy he brings it back definetly a retriever.
That is so great :) I love Golden Doodles btw!
I have golden doodle to!
@@oranjebeer6637 theyre the best!
@@oranjebeer6637I used to have a red doodle, turns out it was just lipstick!!
I love your voice, reminds me of someone
I am glad ;)
Aww. so sweet
I rescued four female golden retrievers (i mother and three pups) whom i got as pups from a breeder who died and had nobody to take care of them.
I went through the childhood and now i am so glad i got them and thank god i had the mother to take care of them most of the time when they were pups, but i lose 30 pounds in three month (best diet ever) and i was beyond exhausted. So yes, think twice or 45 times before getting a GR pup.
By the way my husband named them and the names are so good i can help but sharing them. the offspring are called Blanche, Rose and Dorothy and the mother is called Sophia, there are our golden girls !
And yes we are a gay couple !
Please don’t call your full breed retrievers , rescues. They are not rescues. Rescues are the animals at kill shelters that are sick, diseased and need saving because no one wants to adopt them. I have spent so much money on giving health to my actual rescues which aren’t pure breeds so I cannot stand people calling their pets, rescues when simply they were just adopted. My pets were extremely sick and another needed surgery. They were in kill shelters ready to be put down because no one wanted to adopt sick nonbreeds. Rescues are the ones in kill shelters and/or have been through extreme abuse. Calling your retriever a rescue isn’t appreciating what actual abused rescue pets have actually endured. Retrievers go for over $3,000 and is a top breed to own for families so no way was it in threat of going to a shelter. Stop calling your dog a rescue, people see through that BS. Would be great if you actually did rescue an nonbreed since they are the ones who never get adopted and are put down.
S it is true they will grow soo fast even my puppy when I brought him he was just a tiny Pappy but now he is 5 month I can't belive
I have a long haired Shepard getting up in years. Thinking about a retriever four the next phase of our lives.
Thankyou.....
I hv Goldie ♥️ i love him most♥️♥️
I havent owned a dog since I had Rocky (1980-1994) but just reading the comments made me very sad. Sorry you guys are going through this difficult time. I am going to meet one at dog adoption this wk excited but then reading comments below makes me wonder if I want to go through losing a best friend again :(
This is true for all or most dogs
Can we use a regular comb or do we need a special kind of comb? Also, do we need to shampoo puppy every week?
since i saw homeward bound when i was small i m obssesed wid dem
I love it
Bite marks are true. Mine would gnaw on my hand all the time when it was a puppy. Never broke skin, just some small bruises, so I didn't mind much but if it started to use it's back teeth I drew the line there (those back teeth hurt)
The height of their tails from the floor is just at the perfect level to clean the top of a coffee table off with one swipe.
Haha that is correct!
Or knock over a table lamp. :)
