Things Nobody Told You About Owning a Golden Retriever? - Vet Dr Alex

[@KarenmitchellANI]

WHen my golden came to me 13 yrs ago, I made a promise that I would do everything to prevent cancer. The first thing I did was transition her to a balanced raw food diet and eventually a holistic lifestyle.. So far so good. They LOVE REAL food. Guess it depends on which vet you talk to. JOINT SUPPORT. I don't exposed my dogs to chemical preventives, she has never had a flea, tick or worm

Considering the pandemic has not yet ended, what can a pet owner do to give a pet golden the required 40-60 minutes of exercise if they are quarantined in the house?

We were stuck with a adolescent golden in 7 day quarantine twice. It was hard - play hide and seek in the house, do puzzle toys, feed by hiding food around and letting them hunt, lots of training plus I asked on our community forum if someone could walk him when we were really sick ( he was walked twice in one week)

​@@AD-vy7fb Great idea! Lots of backyard space and plenty of play time.

Were you not walking around outside during the “pandemic” ? Lol.
