is it good on goldens

I have a yellow lab with a thick coat. It works good on him. Make sure you use the longer prongs though and make sure you work the collar so the prongs actually are touching the skin. Don't leave it on the dog all of the time though. Not only does the dog get to where it will only respond when it's being beeped or shocked it can cause redness and sores where the prongs are. Hope this helps.

I have a black lab and a boxer and the collar works great. I really like the company so much so that I actually just purchased and invisible fence with them. It will take some training and some shocks for the dogs to learn their boundaries but if you're willing to put in the work to train them with the collar you will love it.

Yes. I have used them a couple of times on my Golden Retriever when her hair got matted after playing in the snow. They work great.

I have a golden and the collar works just fine on her. I do keep her hair trimmed rather short in the summer because it is so hot in the South. She stays inside and only goes out with supervision. My girl is a senior and has poor eyesight and hearing. The collar has made it easier to warn her of danger and to get her attention when it is needed. I like these collars...I have two and plan on purchasing another one.

~I know its good for skin and coat in general. Essential Fatty Oils will over some months bring health to the skin. So your dog should feel more comfortable with less dry skin, and healthier coat. This is a good product, very large amount & will last a long time. Its important for dogs, cats, and humans to have Essential Fatty Oils in their diet anyway. XO I also give my dog Coconut Oil (extra virgin)... I give my dog coconut oil, a spoonful daily on food, and I also rub it on her skin. If your dog as problem areas of skin, or dry areas, or rashes, the coconut oil will soothe it. Very healthy for them to take BOTH these oils daily. I give them to my cats too ! ~I know its good for skin and coat in general. Essential Fatty Oils will over some months bring health to the skin.

Yes, absolutely! I have a a 1.5 year old Golden Retriever that has a serious shedding problem. After being on this product for a little over a week the shedding DRAMATICALLY decreased. I highly recommend this product if you have a dog with a shedding problem.

I have a Lab and a Golden - and the blade is more for the golden. The hair on a Lab isn't long enough or have enough under coat to do any good. Get a rake that has teeth - not the blades.

I can't say for sure. Our breeder put a snuggle puppy with each of the litter when she separated them from their mother. She crated two puppies together and allowed the mother access during the day so the snuggle puppy came home with his litter mate and mother's scent. We are now on our fourth as it is his crate mate and he won't go to bed without it. He also uses it during the day periodically as a nap mate. Getting him to give up the old soiled and tattered one when a new one arrives is a hoot. We have to eventually hide the old one and insist he "adopt" the new one. I doubt our miniature Goldendoodle will ever outgrow his. It'd be worth a try in your case. I can't say for sure.

I would say yes - we use it on our 80 lb. golden retriever, and it works amazingly well. It is not a tiny brush. Note that if your dog has long hair, the brush is definitely only for outside use. It removes a LOT of hair with each stroke and does not keep the hair in the brush.

its big enough for your golden, it fits my pitbulls big necks so it should fit yours.

I believe so. I have only started leaving it out recently, but it is all fiberglass, not metal to rust so it should work fine outside. My Golden is 15 and this works great as long as incline not to steep.

Hi Fran..I do not see why not, I just put it in my dogs food and it seems to really help. Solid Gold is an excellent brand.

I have the super large. My 100lb newfie and 75lb golden both use this all the time. Depending on how big your golden is the extra large may be a better choice to save on heat.

Yes---we have used it on our long haired Golden and a short haired lab and it worked equally well on both dogs.

very well on everything, it works well on sweathers as with rubber brissles will not pull. I love the this product, I even use it sometimes on brushing dog himself as it doesn't hurt. I simply rinse it off to dry

I purchased the medium to groom a springer and a giant schnauzer I think you could use that on the golden The lab I would use a rubber curry comb. I used that on my Dalmatian and that worked well

works beautifully on a Golden Retriever. captures the hair and is easy to clean. breaks up small clumps. It would not work on matted hair.

I think our 8 yr old golden retriever was more playful a little over a month after we started using it. Make sure you are doubling the dose the 1st week or 2.
