Article From SubmitYOURArticle.com: Golden Retriever Puppies Adoption – Tips To Prepare For This New Responsibility

Could there be anything cuter than an beautiful
Golden Retriever puppy? Who would not want to
take home one of these wiggly balls of golden
fluff? As you start to look into Golden
Retriever puppies adoption, you are going to find
plenty more grown up dogs wanting families. It's
a sad fact that many dog owners are just not
properly prepared for the huge responsibility of
a pet. There are many of these wonderful adult
animals in dog shelters today and all they want
is a family to take them home and care for them.
The big bonus to taking on a mature dog is that
they are far easier to train or are already
trained and have established a good temperament.

However, if you have your heart set on a puppy,
you can find some available for adoption. The
internet is a wonderful tool when trying to
locate Golden Retriever puppies adoption sites.
These shelters often have websites with listings
of dogs or at least location and contact
information so you can find one near you. Before
you bring home your puppy, you should be prepared
to care for it. Find a veterinarian near your
home and visit the office to make sure you are
happy with the level of service you receive.
Purchase some of the items you will need prior to
bringing the puppy home to smooth the transition.

Also, it's a good idea to know what kind of food
and when the puppy has been eating at the Golden
Retriever puppies adoption centre. Keeping these
things the same can help the puppy adjust to your
home more quickly. With an eye to eventually
having an adult dog that is a joyful addition to
your home, you should begin training right away.
Make some decisions before you get your puppy.
Where is the pup allowed to go and what is it
allowed to do? Changing what a dog can do after
the boundary is learned is confusing to the dog,
and retraining is much harder than doing it
correctly in the first place.

Correct crate training links nicely into
house-training, so having an adequate sized one
at home can be very useful. Remember that Golden
Retrievers love people so the crate should be in
a place that is a family gathering spot (like a
kitchen). Goldens love positive reinforcement to
know they have done something right. So when your
puppy does do what you wanted it to do, give it
lots of excited happy praise. Never punish a
puppy for something you have not taught it. If
you are working on puppy training consistently
your puppy will soon begin to notice the
difference between your excited praise and
disappointed silence. Forward thinking and
proper preparation can make the process of your
Golden Retriever puppies adoption a delight.
