Golden Retrievers: Guide to Being Your Dog's Best Friend

Jennifer Hennessey
4.9/5 (30601 ratings)
Description:Author Jennifer Hennessey, DVM, knows firsthand that a well-trained, well-cared-for golden retriever can quickly capture your heart. Whatever its people want, the agreeable golden aims to please. But with its striking intelligence and a nose on the hunt, this dog can easily get into mischief. “Golden Retrievers: How to Be Your Dog’s Best Friend” offers practical advice, from dog-proofing your home and battling against boredom to feeding, housetraining and channeling the endless energy. Having owned a golden herself, Hennessey guides you on the breed’s unique needs, from the grooming required for its handsome coat to common genetic problems and disease. Excerpt from the Book:“Basic commands that every golden retriever should learn are “sit,” “stay,” “down” and “come,” and it also needs to learn leash manners. Goldens typically learn cues quickly, especially when given a positive reward such as praise or a treat. Training sessions are the perfect time to use treats since the golden is highly motivated by food. One note of caution is to use as few full treats as possible and reward your golden with pieces of a one treat to avoid overindulgence. A lower-calorie option to treat your canine is to use a favorite ball or rope toy and reward with a quick game. Play as a reward provides stress relief and an additional energy outlet during training.” Includes:1. The Glorious Golden Retriever2. Choosing a Golden Retriever 2.1.
