If you are planning to buy a golden retriever puppy, be ready to tackle their frequent shedding which might irk you till their entire lifespan.  Baby retrievers shed their extra thick coat till the next 6 months after which they will start growing the adult fur.  These double-coated retriever puppies shed their coat twice a year during the spring to grow small hair that keeps them cool the entire summer and during the fall making space for long hair to dare the chill. But don't worry you can easily get rid of their fur from your couch, carpets, sofa, car, or bed with a pet vacuum cleaner that removes the fur giving you a clean and allergy-free home.
