My Dog Training Experience
Making the choice to adopt a golden retriever has definitely made my life more interesting. I remember the very first day we met at the pet store. The attraction was irresistible and the connection unbreakable. Twenty-five adorable pups vying for my attention but a liter of goldens melted my heart.
A male golden was chubby as well as energetic. He seemed to be the most playful. In fact my family and I had to literally tear ourselves away from the chubby energetic pup who insisted on following us to the door. After socializing with the pups, we went home to discuss whether or not to adopt. We knew that inviting a pet into our home was a serious commitment. An hour later we returned to the pet store excited about our decision to make a golden a new member of our family.
The very next day when I packed my children off to school, the reality that I bared the weightier part of the commitment to care for our new six week old pup suddenly dawned on me. He had allergies which made him sick, he needed to be housebroken, and we definitely couldn't keep him locked up in an easy to clean area forever. In addition he terrorized my seven year old. Let's face it I needed to take action. I realized that I knew nothing about the breed that I had purchased. I had questions. I needed answers.
Learning to train myself on effective dog training
First I began talking to owners/lovers of golden retrievers. Then a friend let me borrow a guide to Golden Retrievers manual. Later that evening, my golden promptly took a destructive bite out of one of the books. I definitely needed help. Equipped with such titles as: "How I Trained My Dog In One Evening" , Dog Food Secrets, Kingdom Of Pets : SitStayFetch , Golden Retriever Training , The Golden Retriever Book and The Golden Retriever Guide, I became knowledgeable about the proper diet and disposition of my pet and most importantly I learned about the power of positive reinforcement in behavior modification. Today, my golden is a little over 4 years of age and is successfully well adjusted to home life. He is of course housebroken and has about ten skillful tricks in his repertoire.
Well this is my golden retriever dog training success story. Check out reviews of the materials I used in the dog training process.
Enjoy.
