Goldens Retriever

September 5, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

In the 19th century, the search took place between the British lower aristocracy for a perfect hunting dog. As a result, the majority of today’s retrievers and other hunting breeds have the remaining roots in the UK. Many have tried to achieve this by mixing various hunting dogs with a desire to obtain their best qualities. Sometimes this worked but more often not.

Golden Retriever Origin lies in the careful work of Sir Dudley Marjoribanksa (later on the first Lord Tweedmouth) who also decided to breed a good hunting dog. According to one story shows that his base were the Russian circus dogs, which were slightly larger than today’s Golden Retriever, a highly intelligent and yellow ocher breed.

In 1865, Lord Tweedmouth purchased a yellow retriever “Nous” from an unregistered litter, which was from the litter of black curly retrievers. This phenomenon is a yellow retriever in a Black litter which took place very often. Nous was later mated with “Belle” (Tweed Water Spaniel), and as a result gave birth to four puppies that meet the wishes. Through the years, these dogs are mixed with curly Retrievers, Irish Setters, and later with sandy-colored Bloodhound, in order to refine the breed. Coat colors Golden Retriever that time differ from fox red to light cream, as well as the length of hair.

Buying A Beautiful Golden Retriever Puppy

September 3, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

This article which you are about to read has been written by somebody who is passionate about Golden Retrievers, and I want to pass on a few hints and tips that I have learned over the years.

We all know that Golden Retrievers are beautiful, obedient, and make great family pets and hunting dogs. Goldens also make great guide dogs for the blind, narcotic detection dogs, and even tracking dogs for finding missing people. Although there are many other dog breeds out there, Golden Retrievers remain one of the most versatile and most astonishing breeds that you can get.

Before you rush out and buy a Golden Retriever puppy, you should first take the time to learn a bit more about the breed. You can attend dog shows, meet with various owners of Golden Retrievers, and even go to your local kennel club. Most people who own Golden Retrievers are extremely proud of them and will be more than happy to share their enthusiasm with you.

When you buy your Golden Retriever puppy, it is always a great idea to buy from a backyard breeder or local puppy breeder. Backyard breeders are normally the best way to get a Golden puppy, as they know and care a lot about the breed in general. Although you can always go to a reputable breeder, backyard breeders are not just in it for the money, they actually care about their dogs and want you to get the best Golden possible.

The First Step To Training Your Dog- Dog Training Advice

August 31, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Hey Allan Codling here,

When we get our dogs we often look for dog training advice but often in the wrong places. The primary focus that we need to have is on dog obedience training as it is a crucial aspect for dog owners. Dog obedience training methods are the basis for a getting your dog to be well behaved, responsive. With these methods your dog will be able to live in your home with your family, friends and other dogs comfortably.

A lot of dog owners want to just potty train their dogs and forget about the obedience factor. What they do not realize is it is much more difficult to get your dog potty trained without the regular practice of obedience training. It makes it even more difficult to correct behavior problems like chewing, biting, jumping and aggression. It all starts with dog obedience training.

Dogs have what is called a pack mentality which means that they need a leader. It is your responsibility as the owner to build the relationship between you and your dog and get your dog to see you as the leader. Now many people either take this piece of dog training advice to lightly and spoil the dog and let it do whatever it wants and many take it to far and are way to militant with the dog and offer no real affection. Both of these habits are ill-advised. What you need to do is love your dog and shower him with affection, but always maintain your leader role in the relationship and the dog will become accustomed to this and recognize it quickly(dogs are smart, they know whats going on 😉 .

August 30, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

You are trying to tell your dog to come here. It ignores you. You try again getting a bit more frustrated. No matter how much you shout at your dog it does not seem to react. There are simple dog training tricks that can make this work so that your dog will come to you immediately, every time.

First, it is important to understand that you dog is ignoring your commands because it doesn’t understand you. You may have tried to teach your dog this command already, and it may now be that what it is thinking you want is different from what you actually want.

Your dog desire is to please it’s owner and the easiest way to teach your dog is to do it for a few minutes each day in the form of play. Make it fun and your dog will learn faster. Also, this is a great way to bond with your dog. Spend those few minutes a day to teach your dog to “come” as soon as you command it.

Ultimate Golden Retriever Guide – Adoption & Training

August 29, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Golden Retriever Training – Ultimate Handbook

Basic Knowledge
In the beginning the golden retriever was named the yellow retriever. In later years the name was largely replaced by the golden retriever, a name made up by the late Lord Harcourt. Also at the beginning of this century there was consternation about the origin of the breed. Black with a wavy coat retrievers were known in certain circles in the south of Scotland in those days, but especially black Labradors are very popular. Actual yellow retrievers were hardly known, except for a few members of noble families and their close friends. Their subsequent spread to all parts of England was not easy to provide. Therefore, it is rather late to try to put facts and truth. Fortunately there is still an undisputed source of information available.

Character
In Britain, Europe, the United States, South Africa, Australia and Japan this dog is very familiar. It is one of the six retriever breeds we know: the Labrador Retriever, Flat Coated Retriever, the Curly Coated Retriever, Chesapeake Bayretriever and the Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever(yes, really!). The golden retriever is full of life, workaholic and controllable of nature, and is therefore often used as a working dog such as service dog and hound. As a family dog he is very sound. Towards children, he is regularly understanding and good-natured, a real do-gooder, but not very watchful. Golden retrievers are often forceful but are softer in nature than the Labradors.
