Happy National Golden Retriever Day! 💛🐾
We at Close To Home Veterinary Care are lucky enough to know the breed intimately. We thought it would only be right to share a few of our Golden patients– share your Golden (or literally any dog photo is more than enough) in the comment below! 🐶

Goldens are known for their friendly personalities, intelligence, loyalty, and gentle nature–check out the history of the breed! 💛

Golden Retrievers were bred in the 1800s in Scotland. Scottish hunters were shooting from much greater distances than they had before and over swampy marshlands. A need for the breed arose when common hunting dogs were proving inadequate for retrieving felled game over land AND water. They were also finding their dogs were losing or maiming their precious bird.. 🦆 They needed a dog with a soft mouth and excellent fetching capabilities, so they bred their best water spaniels with retrievers, and voila! The first Golden Retriever was born, with official breed recognition in the early 1900s.

Bred to work long days in the field, they require plenty of daily physical activity like walks🦮, hikes🏔️, playtime🎾, swimming🌊, and structured exercise to stay healthy and lean. Their intelligent, eager-to-please minds also need regular mental stimulation through training, puzzle toys, fetch and interactive games. They also have thick, water-repellent coats which require frequent brushing and regular grooming due to shedding (they are among the heaviest shedding dog breed, shedding twice a year).

Not only do they make great family and hunting dogs, they also make amazing disability assistance dogs and also specialize in detection and search and rescue efforts due to their stellar sniffing abilities. 🐾💛

What better way to kick off the New Year than with the sweetest puppy snuggles? 🐾

The team at Close To Home Veterinary Care absolutely loves caring for your furry family members and days like this make it even better. It certainly helps when our patients are this stinking cute! 💚

We had the pleasure of cuddling and kissing… ahem - examining and vaccinating this beautiful litter from the wonderful local breeder; Sunset Ridge Sporting Dogs before they head off to their forever homes. 🏡

Yes we know, this really is our dream job. 🐶✨
