How to see how old the golden retriever is

In general, the age of a golden retriever can be judged according to the growth and wear of the golden retriever's teeth, followed by hair, body posture, and eye expression. The puppies grow deciduous canine teeth about 20 days after birth, and the deciduous incisors grow fully at the age of four to six weeks. Over 8 months, all teeth are replaced with permanent teeth. At 1 year old, the permanent teeth are long, smooth and firm, and the upper part of the incisors has sharp protrusions. At 1.5 years old, the apex of the mandibular first incisor was obliterated. At 2.5 years old, the apex of the mandibular second incisors was obliterated. At 3.5 years old, the apex of the maxillary first incisor was obliterated. At 4.5 years old, the apex of the maxillary second incisor was obliterated. At the age of 5, the apex of the mandibular third incisor was slightly abraded, while the mandibular first and second incisors were worn into a rectangular shape. At the age of 6, the peak of the mandibular third incisor is obliterated, and the canines are blunt and round. At the age of 7, the mandibular first incisor was worn down to the root, and the worn surface was longitudinally oval. At the age of 8, the mandibular first incisors were worn and tilted forward. At the age of 10, the wear surfaces of the mandibular second and maxillary first incisors were longitudinally oval. At the age of 16, the incisors fell out and the canines were incomplete. At the age of 20, the canine teeth fell out. Adult dogs are still quite big. Golden Retrievers are large dogs themselves, with a length of about 55-61 cm, and a weight of about 26-31.5 kg for male dogs and 25-27 kg for female dogs.
