Do Golden Retrievers shed?

Yes, Golden Retrievers are moderate to heavy shedders who shed hair throughout the year. And by moderately, we mean you should definitely expect to find a few of their hairs floating onto your furniture, flooring, and clothes. Their shedding ramps up in the spring and fall when they “blow their coats” for about a period of three weeks at a time, but it’s nothing you wouldn’t expect of a dog with a thick coat, and certainly nothing a daily brushing can’t help.
