Golden Retriever Puppy Training is as easy as 1-2-3.

Like all human beings, dogs are creatures of habit. It is therefore imperative to start your Golden Retriever Puppy training as soon as your Golden pup begins to understand. As soon as your puppy is 2-month old his training should begin.

Golden Retriever Puppy Training should start from that very day when your golden pup begins to comprehend simple commands. In most cases, this is as soon as your pup turns two-month old. To begin training your Golden Retriever, it is best to be aware of your dog's common “problem areas”.

Is your puppy chewing on things? Barking indiscriminately? Does he refuse to let go of his feeding bowl? Is your puppy inattentive? Completely oblivious of what you want him to do? Here are some basic fix for your Golden's common problems:

Problem 1:

He's so cute but he chews on things- Golden Retriever like all puppies love to chew when they are young; more so, when they are teething. Teething can be painful so they chew to ease the pain.

The Fix:

There are many chew toys that you can buy for your pup. However, you can improvise and give him an old sock to chew on instead. The pain caused by teething will be minimized and you don't have to spend extra for the chew toy. However, do not leave your puppy to chew alone. He may end up swallowing pieces of that old sock.

Problem 2:

My Golden Pup digs everywhere!- Dogs love to dig by nature. But of course, you wouldn't want your Golden pup to dig indiscriminately. Not in your flower pot or all over your back yard.

The Fix:

Designate a digging place for your Golden Retriever. Allow him to go digging in that designated area and should he start digging outside of that area, tell him off. This way, your pup can gradually understand not to mention form a habit of digging in one area alone.

Problem 3:

My Golden Pup nips - Golden Retrievers learn about the world through their mouth. That’s why they nip and mouth at their families.

The Fix:

If you want to discourage nipping early on, a firm voice and removal of your hands will be enough. Replace your hand or feet with a toy and if your pet persist, recourse to a firm “no” or “enough”. This usually controls his behaviour.

Problem 4:

He barks during play time and barks at anyone- Golden retrievers are quiet dogs. That is their nature. However, you can unknowingly encourage his barking and growling.

The Fix:

Do not bark or growl first at your Golden Retriever when playing with him. Otherwise, you will encourage him to bark and growl at anyone, anytime. If you want your Golden Retriever to bark when a stranger walks through your door- don't sweat it. It will come naturally.

Problem 5:

He refuses to let go of his eating bowl.

The Fix:

A Proper Golden Retriever Puppy Training requires that You and your family should acquaint your Golden Retriever with his eating bowl and train him to let it go after eating. You can do this early on by holding his bowl as he eats and giving him a toy after eating. Sooner or later, his habit will form. That is; to let go of the bowl after eating.

You can train your Golden Retriever puppy all by yourself .
