How Much Should I Feed My Golden Retriever by Age?
For Golden Retrievers, feeding needs change with age. Puppies under 6 months require frequent meals, about 3-4 times daily, to support growth. Between 6 months to 1 year, reduce this to 3 meals per day as their growth rate slows. Adult Golden Retrievers, aged 1 to 7 years, should be fed twice daily for optimal health. Senior dogs, over 8 years, might require smaller portions but should continue with two meals per day to maintain their metabolic rate and ensure nutrient absorption.
