How to train a golden retriever to stand

Standing posture training for golden retrievers:

1. Hold the dog leash and please pet the dog. This is necessary "communication".

2. Stand in front of the golden retriever and don’t get too close. Use attractants to attract your golden retriever's attention.

3. Stand in front of the golden retriever with the lure, raise your hands high to attract the golden retriever's attention, and give the command at the same time.

4. When the golden retriever is about to lose its hold, continue to give passwords to keep the golden retriever in a standing position. But at the beginning, even if the standing time is short, give the command. Rewards make your golden retriever confident.

5. When training to stand, the golden retriever may often run in front of the handler. At this time, use your knees to gently push the golden retriever back to its original position. Be careful not to kick with your feet.

6. If the limbs are not aligned, pull the Golden Retriever forward to make the feet stand up. During this process, encourage the Golden Retriever with words frequently until the Golden Retriever stands up beautifully.
