Methods for golden retrievers to prevent skin diseases

1. Do not bathe frequently. Bathing too often can damage your hair and skin. Once a month in summer and once every two to three months in winter is appropriate.

2. When bathing a golden retriever, it is best to use professional shampoo, because the pH of dog skin is very different from that of humans. Use pet-specific shampoo to maximize the protection of your pet's skin.

3. Appropriate exercise is beneficial to bone development, but care should be taken to avoid activities on grass to prevent parasites.

4. It is forbidden for dogs to sniff the feces of other dogs, because most sources of viruses are infected through feces.

5. Proper exposure to the sun is good for dogs. Sunlight can increase pigments, supplement calcium, kill viruses and mites, and prevent skin diseases.

6. Don’t let your golden retriever stay in a damp, dark place or in the toilet for too long. An unventilated and humid environment is also an important cause of skin diseases in golden retrievers.

7. Regularly carry out internal and external deworming.
