How Do You Bring A Golden Retriever Puppy Home?
Bringing a new golden retriever puppy home can be a happy occasion in a family’s life. The new dog owners should do everything they can to provide the best experience possible as they welcome the new member of the family into their home. With careful preparation and training, a golden retriever can be a faithful and dearly loved companion for years to come. Purchase a large crate, or dog carrier, from a reputable pet supply store. This will be the puppy’s “room.” Purchase food and water bowls. Dogs may sometimes step in their food dishes, so get bowls that have large, “untippable” bases. Golden retrievers love to play! Be sure to supply your puppy with plenty of balls and toys to chew on. Every dog needs to be leash-trained. Provide a small collar and leash. Select a good-quality dry dog food for your new puppy. Your veterinarian or breeder should have appropriate recommendations. Have plenty of newspaper on hand for house-training your new puppy. Puppy-proof your home ahead of time. P
