Expert Answer

A good Golden at about one month has thick paws over 5 cm wide and grows large and sturdy. But bone mass varies individually. These factors affect it: small parents pass on less bone mass.

Second, diet affects it—poor nutrition hinders bone growth, excess causes abnormality. Finally, moderate exercise stimulates bones; too much or too little harms them.
