We have a 16 week old spaniel….we are going thru the exact same thing with our pup. He listens when we train and does very well but when we are out and about…nope, his ears turn off. Leave-it is his most difficult command, he hates it and sometimes and gets sassy and barks at us! Puppies are cute but a HUGE time commitment. Not sure if I’m going to do a puppy again….but they are fun and can be very rewarding.
Awesome video! I know puppyhood can be challenging, but remember to enjoy this age! I have an 11 year old lab, and I would gladly go back to the puppy days if that meant I could keep her with me longer❤
The next 5 weeks is where the growing really takes off. My Golden finally stopped wanting to jump on people when he turned 3. He wouldn't jump on people per se', but he sure wanted to.
Thank you for this first update!:) Please keep up the monthly updates!! You're doing a great job not only of bringing up Daisy, bot of making these videos for us. Thank you!:)
She's doing terrific! Potty training is more consistent ~6mos, and she may have some accidents just after being spayed. When she goes outside, say 'Potty' ... if she goes, give her 3 pieces of kibble one at a time. If she doesn't go, then no kibble. Jump training is excellent ... Sit to greet is a safe thing to do. At about 4 mos when she loses her baby teeth, she may start teething and chewing things again, b/c her mouth hurts. You can try going her a damp washcloth frozen, to chew on, but monitor closely for chewing and trying to swallow it.
Dang it.. I just want to reach thru my monitor, and give Daisy a hug. She's so cute. (My family has had mostly yellow and black Lab retrievers over the years..)
Enjoy and savor every precious moment. Sadly, Goldens have such a short life expectancy and unfortunately, time goes by way too fast....We miss ours terribly.
Daisy is Golden Retriever, a gundog by breed. It depends a little on whether she is from a working line or not, but in principle you can expect her to grow to acquire the intellectual capabilities of a 4 to 5 year old child. Obviously it’ll differ in various aspects, but generally she’ll be able to comprehend things that a 4 year old can and apply her comprehension also. Dogs like her have been shown to be capable of deductive reasoning from what they experience from the world around them. Like 4 or 5 year old children they can turn those capabilities to various purposes, “good” and “bad”. Much depends on training and occupying her busy little brains. Good luck and enjoy!
@@GraceDeGrace just remember: she will be a 4-yo with no common sense as you understand it. She’ll do the most awful, stupid things. However, she’ll also be capable of things that’ll astound you. It all hinges to a large extent on the training you do with her. You need to be predictable for her: - Be sparing with your commands. She is a gundog, not a circusdog, nor a robot. Give commands when needed, but not for the fun of it. - But when you issue a command, insist it is executed. Never, ever think that it’ll be alright. No. “Come here” means come here, right here and no two ways about it. “Leave it” means leave it, right now. Etc. - Always be kind when she obeys, even if you had to tell her 100 times. When she comes to you, she is always a GOOD GIRL! You are the sun of her universe, her refuge when everything around her goes to hell. - The basic commands are: Come here. (Obvious) Sit. (Obvious) Stay. (She needs to stay sitting down whilst you walk away, even out of sight. Obviously train this in small steps.) Heel. (She needs to walk with her head next to your left knee, both on and off the lead. When on the lead without pulling.) You can enhance her intellect by challenging her, in small steps, e.g. by asking her to search for hidden toys. Reward her with tidbits for a success. Enroll her and yourself for gundog training, even if you don’t hunt. It’ll strengthen your bond. Be prepared for the fact that you are 80% of the problem in her training.
Sorry for the late response! We found her online through a site called puppy finder. It lists local breeders in your area! The one we got Daisy from doesn’t have their own website so I’m not sure how to share them with you but try puppy finder and see if there’s one you like, that’s what we did!!
ur talking about 1 month though.. u should be patient.. she will do all these tricks u want her in 2-3 years.... and be calm around 6-7.. u will miss the puppy energy by then.
@@katekurosky2042 that is pretty common here too at least as you get closer to the city, but we got very lucky with Daisy and were very patient to find the perfect pup for us

Yup! Oreo still has trouble listening outside even years later but they still make great additions to our lives. Good luck with your little spaniel!!

Agreed trying to embrace this phase
I've been watching all your puppy videos. My 11week old has EXACTLY the same tendencies and progress as your puppy.
Aw that is so sweet, that must mean you’ve got a wonderful dog in your hands! Wishing you all the best with your puppy!!
@@GraceDeGrace thanks! It's interesting you are about a month ahead of my puppy, so right when the videos come out I can predict what will happen next
The next 5 weeks is where the growing really takes off. My Golden finally stopped wanting to jump on people when he turned 3. He wouldn't jump on people per se', but he sure wanted to.
Good to know!!
I.ve got a male in November last year he is 9 months old and he changed our lives forever
Goldens are wonderful dogs
Thank you for sharing the reality of raising a puppy. Daisy is so precious and will sure grow to be an amazing dog!!
Thank you so much for watching! She is learning so much already, im excited to see her blossom
Daisy is lovely. Thanks for sharing.Oreo as well. 🥰🐾❤️
Yay thank you for watching!
Nice to see that Daisy is part of a loving family.
Aw yes she is very loved
You’re doing great! Raising a proper doggo is a ton of work but don’t worry, your patience will be rewarded.
Thank you! Yes! They are worth every ounce of the effort
I’m impressed with Daisy’s training. What a gorgeous pup. 😊
Thank you! She’s a great dog!
Lovely puppy with her big 😎 bro

OMG... she is so cute! You can never get mad at her. hehe..
Even through all their mischief 😂
Lovely combination
They do make a cute pair
She is going to be an amazing Golden.
I agree she is already doing so well! So excited to see her all grown up
Such a big girl.
She grew up too fast

Great tips thank you!
Our vet said to wait for 12 months before the operation. Better for growth development.
@@AnneMB955 our vet said similar, they recommended to wait until after her first heat
Getting an 8 week golden today :)
Ah that is so exciting! Good luck!!
❤ Ellie, She's like only film me!
Yeah she wants all the attention 😂
Dang it.. I just want to reach thru my monitor, and give Daisy a hug. She's so cute. (My family has had mostly yellow and black Lab retrievers over the years..)
Aw haha Daisy would love it, she loves attention!

I’m sorry for your loss. It is truly a shame that they do not live as long as we do
She's so cute I'M GONNA DIE 😍
Cuteness overload!!
Thank you!

Hard to tell who won the fight 😂
I want a puppy too! ❤❤
They are a joy!
😍🐕🐶😊
Hi there, how can I have a business inquiry with you? Thank you
my golden retriever puppy is great she just needs to stop biting
Luckily they grow out of it pretty quickly!!
Any chance you could give me the website link or number of the breeder? Beautiful puppy!!! Nice job training!
