An Introduction to Golden Retriever
Initially Golden

developed as gundogs.

rescue game birds during
shooting and hunting. As
such, they are a friendly
breed and have a distinct
love for water unlike
other dogs.
Characteristics of a Golden Retriever
As a family dog, the Golden
Retrievers are ideal. They
are:
• Cheerful
• Reliable
• Forbearing
• Demonstrative
• Sociable
• Patient
Importance of Training a Golden Retriever
Golden Retrievers remain puppy-like for
several years and hence training them
from an initial stage is essential to
introduce good manners. It is necessary to
control their chewing tendency from an
early stage. Hence, you can provide them
with chewable toys, which they can also
carry around in their mouth.
Need For Exercise
This breed of dog needs
some amount of exercise
daily. Two brisk walks
and running around a
yard or park at least once
a week would be perfect
for Golden Retrievers.
You can play fetch
games with them so that
he gets enough exercise.

to quite a few diseases.

Story of Margaret and Sandy….
“As a dog owner I have never faced much trouble
with Sandy. He has been a bundle of joy for me
since he was born. Sometimes, it gets difficult to be
calm, when he has chewed on your favorite pair of
shoes, but otherwise he has been a wonderful
companion. He is a great friend and is tremendously
funny when he is up to his antics. He is always a
joy to be around. I can vouch that there no other
dog who is better than my Sandy”
Continued….
“For me Sandy is a hero. When one
day a fire had broke out in my house,
he had saved my baby of 3 months
old. I still cannot forget that
terrifying day. Now my kid is 1 year
old and all thanks to my Sandy that
he is still alive.”
Therefore, care for your pet as a
friendly angel is hidden within
each of them. The way they care
for you, you must always return
the favor by keeping them under
careful vigilance of a kind-
hearted pet-sitter.
