| Golden retrievers are commonly near the top of the list of family pet choices for several reasons. Goldens are a good-tempered and playful breed, they are an especially good choice for families with small children. These dogs are also intelligent and live to please their owners, this also means they are one of the easier breeds to train and training them is certainly worthwhile. That doesn't mean that golden retriever training is easy, however, and it can take a lot of time and be a test of patience for both owner and pet The following are a few tips that will help you to train a Golden Retriever puppy so that you can turn it into the perfect family pet.
Housebreaking Your Puppy: One of the first things you need to teach your puppy is where it is allowed to go to the bathroom. That will generally be in an outdoors area, and the easiest way to teach your dog this lesson is to use a crate. A crate is a constructive apparatus that helps your dog learn to only use the bathroom outside, and gives the puppy a secure, serene spot for sleeping. Dogs do not generally relieve themselves in their sleeping area, so if you confine your puppy to his crate for a little while, he will learn to wait until he is taken outdoors. Reinforce the Golden retriever training by giving your puppy abundant praise once he's gone to the bathroom where he is supposed to do so. Teeth Concerns: Proper Use of Biting and Chewing Just because a dog explores its world by using its mouth, doesn't mean it is okay for the animal to do so when interacting with its owners. Golden retriever training teaches your pet that it can't "mouth" or nibble any human while playing. Golden Retrievers especially like to chew, and they don't care if its their favorite tennis ball or your favorite pair of loafers. This tendency to chew is only worsened when dogs are left alone for long periods of time or aren't paid attention by their owners. By giving your dog a plethora of chew toys, you can stop this issue before it becomes a problem. Make sure your puppy understands that your furniture and shoes are definitely off limits. A Golden Retriever may be one of the easier breeds to train, but you still need to devote a lot of time,burberry, effort and overall: patience. High energy levels and short attention spans may plague your training sessions, even though Golden retrievers are smart and want to please you. Fit in lavish praise and positive reinforcement whenever you can and keep your training time short and to the point. Your compensation for your hard work and perseverance will be a pet that is well-behaved and obedient and a cause of satisfaction and pleasure for the entire family.
