Avoid Giving Your Golden Retriever Table Food

Feeding a dog high fat human foods increases his risk for pancreatitis, a potentially life threatening condition. It may be okay to give your dog wholesome fresh foods such as fruits and vegetables, but consult with your veterinarian first since certain fruits such as grapes can be toxic to your Golden Retriever.

FEEDING

Recommended feeding daily amount: 2 to 3 cups of high-quality dry food a day, divided into two meals.

Feed your golden retriever depends on his size, age, build, metabolism, and activity level. Golden retriever are individuals, just like people, and they don't all need the same amount of food. It almost goes without saying that a highly active dog will need more than a couch potato dog. The quality of dog food you buy also makes a difference--the better the dog food, the further it will go toward nourishing your golden retriever and the less of it you'll need to shake into your dog's bowl.
