Golden Retriever Ideal weight range
25–34 kg
Golden Retrievers have a documented genetic predisposition to obesity, requiring fewer calories to maintain a healthy weight than many comparable breeds. They are also predisposed to hypothyroidism, elbow dysplasia, and subaortic stenosis. Hypothyroidism in particular causes weight gain that is unresponsive to normal dietary adjustments and requires daily lifelong medication. FitFido tracks both the dosing routine and weight in one place so metabolic shifts are easier to spot early.
Your dog is more than a breed average.
A generic range is just a starting point. FitFido uses your dog's unique breed characteristics, age, body type, and activity level to calculate their target weight and construct a custom plan that adjusts as you progress.
Please note that a dog's ideal weight depends on many individual factors, including height, bone structure, and overall body condition.
