How do I stop my dog from shedding so much?

Hi I also have a golden retriver and my vet tells me to give her vitamin E. It works for my. Hope it works for yours. Ask your vet first.

You might want to try changing his diet. Consult with your vet. My dog used to have that problem and I tried different things, but I think feeding him more people food than he should have been eating was a big part of the problem since I cut down on that his shedding issue seems to be much improved. It is winter here now anyway and we don't have alot of shedding problems normally this time of year.

My dog used to do that and i don't think there is anything you can do but maybe get him shaved down a little.

well i think the big thing is are you shampooing him on a regular basis as well? Diet and other things can also lead to a shedding problem, Like one of the respondents above may be trimming down his fur would be a good idea you could even take him to a groomer they may be able to give you some good advise besides its always good to get your dog pampered at least once a year good luck
