Add some info for GR:

QUOTE

THE GOLDEN RETRIEVER IS NOT FOR EVERYONE!
The Golden Retriever is an American Kennel Club sporting breed requiring daily activity as an outlet of amazing energy. (And no...a short trip to the nearest tree from the front door for a potty break does not count as exercise.)

A Golden's thick coat in addition to a water repellent undercoat makes weekly brushing a requirement.

The Golden is NOT for fussy or fanatical housekeepers. Goldens shed and whether you call them fur balls, fur bunnies or tumbleweeds...they will be in plentiful supply across your living and dining room floors.

If there is water in the vicinity a Golden will find it... muddy or not!

If your yard harbors small sticks, leaves, etc...a Golden's coat will find it.(And inevitably drag into your house.)

Some of the larger headed Goldens bred for conformation tend to have a looser lip resulting in drooling. Our girls gave it a more technically scientific name..."being slimmed!" (It's amazing what we have learned to tolerate!)

Being a very social breed-Goldens are NOT suited for solitary backyard living or being chained to the dog house all day and night. Goldens tackle EVERYTHING with passion and zeal! They will not be satisfied with anything less than being part of the family. Whether it's a jaunt to the store down the road or a ten hour excursion to the beach - it makes no difference to them...as long as they are with their family! We call them the "pocket dog"- if you can't find your Golden just turn around... he is probably in your back pocket waiting to see what you want to do next.

Goldens are NOT guard dogs! Golden Retrievers are the most sociable creature on earth and probably invented the saying "I'm a lover- not a fighter!" They have NO enemies and NOBODY is a stranger. An invitation to a burglar to "come in and take a load off" would be more rational in a Golden's point of view than anything threatening or hateful. After all...the more the merrier!

The Golden's size in combination with their frolicsome playfulness make basic obedience (At the very least.) a necessity. Golden retrievers without basic knowledge of commands can lead to uncontrollable playfulness, exuberant jumping, etc. This is not only annoying and irritating (Not to mention rude.) but a dangerous situation for a child or elderly person...no matter how well meaning their intentions.

One more thing...don't let it be said we did not warn you about shedding!

Having said all the negative...for those willing to take the responsibility and commit to own a Golden Retriever you will not find a more loving, sweet, affectionate and devoted member of your family. (Not counting your spouse!)

3. Good grooming site for GR

Sure. I will be in KL on 24/25 Nov for company trip.
But thinking of escaping in the afternoon for some shopping...keke

Can lar,

one of the GR in shushu's training class come to class in a kancil every week - no problem

You can let her sit at the back passenger seat, and fasten her leash at the side so that she can't move too much in the car and disturb the driver.
Just cover the seat with big towel or cloth to protect it from her fur and dirt.

icic.. leash is?? hmm... icic.. when she see towel.. will like lost control la.. will like a baby playing towel..

WOW... v2, haha.. get 1st post in here.. hurray..

Eh? Why put her in the boot? You guys scared her fur get stuck in your car seat is it? Then hard lor like that. My furkids always sit where ever they like. Abby's fav spot is between the two front seats with her butt on the back seat and 1/2 body between that space. We had to put a pillow there to protect her elbow.

Chelsea's fav place is sitting at the back and droll all over the back window.

If sometimes see people at traffic stops, she likes to lick the window in a hiao manner.

kekeke....Eversince i have shushu, my car can only sit 2 person, the driver and the front passenger.
The back seat is reserved for shushu already - anyway, no one wants to sit there now since it is full of fur.

Initially, everytime after fetching shushu, I do vacuum my car which takes at least 1 hour. One week minimum have to do at twice until after a while, too lazy to continue and just leave it as it is - now just cover the seat with a towel.

Wahahaha same lor. Last time use to vaccum and wipe the interior after every outing. Lama lama also become lazy and just leave it as it is. Some more I use to apply leather wax/oil to the leather seat but since we bring them kai kai almost every weekend last time, the wax transfer to their fur liao. In the end also didn't apply the wax anymore.

So the lather seat now here koyak, there koyak. Windows full of Chelsea's slobber and the back seat arm rest kena chewed by BuckBuck.

Fala really shed alot hor that time but she very guai during the ride, just sit quietly. Queenie very cute leh, tumble head over heels to disturb everyone. Elaine, are you already missing Queenie's puppyhood? I know I miss both my furkids' puppyhood. *sighs* Puppies are great

Aaaah, going into the young teenage phase. Can't keep still long enough for anyone to give a big hug. In a blink of an eye, sure Queenie will become big de.

Bye puppyhood days...

BTW, I just came back from KKB and LUCKY the trip was canceled. The water's very muddy and water current quite strong. I think this month want go swimming susah le coz almost raining every other day..
