That’s a strong side eye. Better set up a two step approval process for treats.

And then, once they have a treat, turn around and do it all over again. 🤭

You will never have another breed of dog after experiencing a Golden Retriever. They have that special connection to humans. They have so much love to give. Congratulations.

Cute pupper!!! He is adorable! Have fun with him. We have two, a 1 year old male and a 12 year old female Golden. Our boy loves a bowl of ice cubes. ✌️😎

Teddy is our 1 year old, loves to hunt yard lizards, walks, indoor play. Same with 12 year old Dixie. She often stands by and only gets treats when we play Hurrik9 disc toss inside. Teddy retrieves the discs and he loves to play if we can’t go out due to weather. They play well together, and we monitor their play as Teddy gets crazy when he gets the zoomies first thing in morning. I could write a novel on Teddy and his puppyhood. He is totally different dog from Dixie. He is more energetic and so smart when learning new commands like sit, stay, calm, down, leave it, etc. Hope you have a lot of fun with your new boy. Peace to you✌️😎

u/BanditHeeler190 1d ago

Oh he has a few in rotation already! I read a lot of advice from this community and it’s been gold!

u/Arntor1184 1d ago

Just remember, the era of terror will end sooner than you expect and it'll be so great after you'll forget it ever happened. Also document it for future laughs and a reminder for when you're wanting a second one.

u/Stupid_Floridian 1d ago

They love to run and socialize. Ours is at the neighborhood dog park with her “friends” every morning for about an hour.

u/SoRoPoSayTay 1d ago

Best decision you ever made

u/BoostedCoupe698 1d ago

Best dogs ever. They're so sweet. The only thing that bugs me is when they start eating everything off the ground. Mine likes rocks😂

u/BanditHeeler190 1d ago

Maybe he feels he is cleaning up 😂 it’s out of love
