Vet Insights
Golden Shepherds are large, high-energy dogs that reach full height by 12 months and mature by age two. They have dense double coats and are heavy year-round shedders, making them a poor choice for allergy sufferers. Maintenance requires 60-90 minutes of daily exercise and weekly brushing. Manage their 4-5 cup diet carefully to prevent bloat and obesity.
