Hi everyone! Our GR puppy is coming home in 3 weeks and this forum has been a lifesaver. We live in a condo and had initially planned on taking our puppy down to the street for potty breaks straight away and not using puppy pads to avoid confusion, however I've been pretty concerned about the...

I understand all breeders are different. However, I am talking generally. Does it sound like we would be a good home for a puppy / dog? My partner and I are both out of school (he is 24 and I am 26). Technically, I am still in school (grad school), but I defend in a couple of weeks so will be...

Hi there. I currently have a 4 month old golden retriever puppy. He's the best!

Hi There, Our little Izzy has been home for 3 weeks now. She's caught onto potty training in the condo easily enough with minimal accidents. We have a potty patch on the balcony and she will go on it occasionally throughout the day, or wander to the door and we scoop her up and take her out...

Hello All I need your help I'm about to move into my new home and it's an apartment on the bottom floor. It has a massive courtyard perfect for my GR that is part of the apartment but it's not pet or dog friendly!! Strata Bi laws stipulates no dogs allowed unless it's a guide dog for the blind...

Hello Everyone! We just wanted to stop by and introduce ourselves. Our names are Alex and Bethany and our golden girl goes by Charlie. She is so loving and I honestly think she thinks she is part human; if you guys could only see how Alex speaks to her and how she understands! I'll post pictures...
