The Golden Retriever most likely descended from the same strain as the Labrador and was improved through various crosses (of the yellow Flat-coated Retriever from Newfoundland with Scottish water spaniels and other breeds). The breed was stabilized in England in the nineteenth century. Some believe that the Golden Retriever was created by crossing the Bloodhound with yellow dogs from the Caucasus Mountains - Russian Yellow Retrievers - used in Scotland to retrieve wounded game

Important Information:

SKIN HEALTH & COAT BEAUTY

Golden Retrievers are known for their long, beautiful, golden coats. Nutrition plays an important role in maintaining the health and beauty of the skin and coat. A synergistic complex of vitamins and amino acids, Folic Acid, Chelated Zinc and Chelated Copper helps to build and protect the skin barrier. The addition of Omega 6 fatty acids, Chelated Zinc, Vitamins E & C and Biotin help enhance the natural beauty of your Golden Retriever's coat.

SPECIFIC KIBBLE SHAPE, SIZE & TEXTURE

Large breed dogs may be more prone to bloat, especially if they gulp their food too quickly. And all dogs may be subject to oral health problems due to the accumulation of plaque and tartar. A larger kibble may slow this process and helps them to digest their food more efficiently. Sodium Tripolyphosphate, supplemented in the MAXI Golden Retriever 25, helps to bind the calcium in a dog's mouth and prevent it from bonding to the teeth.

COGNITIVE FUNCTION

The bright mind of the Golden Retriever makes them a lively and alert companion. Free radicals can lead to early aging and cellular degeneration. Supplemental antioxidant Vitamins C & E, polyphenols from Green Tea, and Lutein may help to slow this process and may help to support cognitive function.

HEALTHY HEART

Because some Golden Retrievers may be predisposed to hereditary heart disease, it's important to provide nutrients that help contribute to heart health. A synergistic complex of antioxidants (Vitamins E & C, Lutein, Taurine, and Green Tea Polyphenols), essential fatty acids, Arginine, and L-Carnitine (800 mg/kg), may help protect the Golden Retriever's heart, contributing to a better quality of life.
