Hi, new pet parent here. I adopt golden retriever recently. Any tips on how to maintain his coat in general? Is there any supplements for shiny coats? Also how to take them out on walks during rainy season, because he gets dirty easily. It's not easy to clean everyday. Could you please provide some tips?

Hi hi Ramya. To maintain a healthy coat, bath him once in 15 days, use a mild non medicated shampoo with a conditioner. Brush his hair twice or thrice a week (use dog brushes only). Give well balanced nutritious diet, and include any Omega 3,6 supplements everyday( Syrup Nutricoat advance/ Yafa gold coat/ Starcoat etc).

Keep walks short during rainy season. Do purchase a rain coat according to his size. Make him wear rain boots or if he is very uncomfortable, apply paw wax thoroughly before walk, and post walk, clean the paws with dog wipes.

Hey Ramya.. u can introduce boiled fish and egg daily in his diet according to weight (to maintain coat). N give reverse swipe to body hair after each walk (for fast drying) and keep a separate dry towel for him (when he is more wet) and for legs- shoes or clean paw with pet friendly wipes.
