My 1-year-old Golden Retriever is shedding heavily. Is this normal?

Question

My male golden retriever Aged 1yr 5 months is heavily facing shedding problem

Dr. Elizabeth · Accepted Answer

Dogs lose the entire coat up to twice a year. This can vary in severity and as long as the hair grows back and the skin looks normal, this is expected. If the skin is red or he seems itchy or the hair is not re-growing, have him examined by his veterinarian. Certain diets promote skin and coat health such as Nutro and Royal Canin. Best of luck and please feel free to post any additional questions.
