Do English Cream Golden Retrievers Shed?

White golden retrievers are heavy shedders, especially in the fall and spring. They require daily brushing, and you'll still find hair everywhere. That's because they have a double coat. The top part is oily so it's waterproof. The undercoat is thick and downy. The undercoat adapts to the dog's environment. It grows in thicker when it's colder and sheds during warmer months. Daily brushing is recommended, and weekly undercoat rakings are helpful. Avoid shaving your White Retriever. It can cause heat stroke in warm weather as well as sunburn. Besides, the hair may not grow back correctly. Instead, brush daily, rake the undercoat out weekly and get a professional grooming done once every 8 to 10 weeks.

English Cream Golden Retriever Haircut:

Never shave a retriever. Instead, use an undercoat rake, twice a week, year-round. Check the dog for lumps and hot spots. Then trim the feathery part of dog's coat with symmetry and balance in mind. Make sure the dog has thick hair on the neck, with the rest of the body even and smooth. Use thinning sheers on the ears, and straight scissors to trim the feet and hock. Young puppies shouldn't need trimming.

Do English Cream Golden Retrievers Smell?

White Retrievers can smell like wet dishtowels when they are wet and not properly dried. This happens when dogs go for daily swims and when the undercoat is thick and matted. To avoid this, make sure to dry your retriever and brush regularly.

Do White Cream Retrievers Like Water?

Many retrievers like swimming but not all. Some retrievers start early whereas others have no interest in it until much later in life.

Do White Golden Retrievers Have Webbed Feet?

Yes, Retrievers have webbed feet, but American Kennel Club does not recognize webbing as a breed standard. It only states that their feet should be medium-sized, round, compact, well knuckled, and with thickly padded. Other dog breeds have webbed feet too, like Newfoundlands, Dachshunds, and Portuguese Water Dogs.
