What if your golden retriever is pulling out his fur and has sores on his body?

Your dog may have Hot spots which is a bacterial infection of the skin. The spots are moist and weepy. These are very common in Goldens. The spots get bigger and bigger as the dog scratches and bites/licks them. They start out as small round spots and grow quite fast. They can be treated at home but can be very frustrating. I would take your dog to the vet for examination. He may have some other skin disease such as mange mites or skin Allergies.

How do you eliminate golden retriever's body odor?
My parents have a retriever that gets a strong "fishy" smell. It has something to do with her glands near her butt. They have to get squeezed by the vet -- the vet can teach you how, so you can do it at home. But it is very gross to smell and oozy. If you don't get her glands squeezed, then she can get infections.

Are golden retrievers a hunting breed?
Some Golden Retrievers are hunting dogs. Once upon a time all Golden retrievers were hunters but when people found out how good of a pet they made many kept them for pets only and bred the hunting instinct out of them, also the Golden Retriever Club of America rewrote the standard for the show dog so that the body type is to stocky and heavy for a hunting dog and the longer hair of the show dog limits its usefulness as a hunter. As a result of these changes few Golden Retrievers today will hunt and there has not been a dual champ ( a field champ & a bench champ) for many, many years. To find a good hunting Golden Retriever you must go to a breeder of hunting Golden Retrievers.
