Golden Retriever puppies are adorable and mischievous, and very affectionate when grown up. They are highly intelligent and very friendly to people, becoming one of the most popular pets. So how to raise a Golden Retriever puppy? Here are some tips for raising a Golden Retriever puppy for your reference.

How to raise a Golden Retriever puppy: For Golden Retrievers less than one month old, it is recommended to give them milk as much as possible. If they did not drink their mother's milk, owners should prepare some goat milk powder that is easy to digest. Dogs should not drink cow's milk. If the owner does not properly care for the puppy’s intestines before one month, the puppy may easily have diarrhea and other issues, which is very harmful to their growth and development. Remember not to feed them anything else as they have no teeth and cannot chew.

How to raise a Golden Retriever puppy: At two months old, Golden Retrievers can be weaned. In the early stages of weaning, soft foods can be given, such as milk cakes and nutritional paste. The weaning process should be gradual, never rushed. Good gastrointestinal care early on will save many troubles later.

After weaning, proper nutrition must be supplemented, including protein, calcium, and vitamin D, all essential. Before one year old, Golden Retrievers require double the calories of adult dogs, so their nutrition at this stage must not be lacking and should be sufficient.

How to raise a Golden Retriever puppy: Golden Retrievers need to eat some soft foods; dry dog food should be soaked before feeding to them, not given dry. In addition, do not feed puppies human food, not only because it’s too oily and salty, but also because it will develop an eating habit. If they eat human meals too often, they will become dependent and later refuse to eat their special dog food. Human food does not meet the nutritional needs of Golden Retrievers, and long-term dependence will make their nutrition insufficient, preventing healthy growth.

Next, train Golden Retrievers to eat at fixed times, in fixed amounts, and at fixed places. When they are young, feed small meals multiple times, and as they grow, gradually increase the amount and reduce the frequency.

Once Golden Retrievers develop good habits and good intestinal care, owners will save much effort when they grow up.
