Methods to train golden retrievers to fetch balls

1. Establish a good relationship with the dog. On this basis, it will be easier to start training.

2. Prepare the tools needed for training before starting training, and let the golden retriever adapt to the training in advance. For example, give the ball to the golden retriever to let the golden retriever adapt to the things in its mouth in advance.

3. Specify the training password in advance, such as picking up a ball, etc. In addition, train the golden retriever to obey orders, at least absolutely obey the owner, so that the golden retriever can be better controlled during the training process.

4. Start trying to train a golden retriever. The trainer holds a ball in his hand, throws it far away, being careful not to go too far, and then orders the golden retriever to pick up the ball. Of course, at the beginning of training, the golden retriever is not familiar with various commands, so the trainer needs to guide it to pick up the ball. Let it develop a habit, know what the code means, and then let it pick up the ball on its own.

5. When the golden retriever picks up the ball, order it to come back. If your golden retriever successfully brings the ball to you, be sure to reward him with something. For example, touching it, giving it treats, etc. are all good ways to reward it.
