This book was released on 2019-04-03 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Goldador is a relatively new breed of dog that has been developed within the last two decades. The Goldador is a mix of both the Labrador Retriever and the Golden Retriever. The aim of the breed's development was to create a sensitive, tolerant, intelligent and highly trainable working dog - the efforts proved to be highly successful! The Goldador is now considered one of the top choices for organizations that train guide and assistance dogs. Despite the Goldador's popularity as an assistance dog, the Goldador is not a popular household pet breed. As of January 2017, there are no breed clubs or breeding standards for the Goldador. The Goldador is a highly alert breed which also means that it makes an excellent watchdog, but the Goldador is also a highly inquisitive and friendly breed which means that it is not a very effective guard dog. The temperament of dogs is normally affected by the following factors: individual personality, heredity, training and socialization. It is therefore important to make sure that you meet the puppy's mother before purchasing a Goldador. It is also important to make sure to thoroughly socialize your Goldador with strangers, children and other animals during its puppyhood. Generally speaking, the Goldador has a desire to please its owner which makes it an incredibly easy breed to train. Despite its unpopularity as a household pet, the Goldador is known to get along well within a household enviroment due to the fact that it gets along well with strangers, children and other animals (providing that it has been socialized properly during its puppyhood). The Goldador has a double coat in a similar fashion to a Labrador Retriever. The breed's top coat is short, thick and straight while its undercoat is soft and dense. Generally the Goldador's coat will range from yellow to gold in coloration. However due to the lack of a breeding standard, the Goldador is also known to occasionally have a reddish brown coat. It is important to note that as a cross between two working breeds, the Goldador has a high amount of energy which needs to be expended. If the Goldador has a buildup of energy it is likely to develop destructive behaviors due to boredom or hyperactivity. Before purchasing any pet it is important to understand that as a pet owner you are responsible for the care and wellbeing of your pet. It is important to try and learn as much as you can about the animal you are considering to keep as a pet to make sure that your lifestyle, household and financial status are suited to provide your pet with the best possible care. This guide has been designed to provide you with both precise and concise information about a Goldador's basic needs to help you provide your pet with the best quality care practices. This guide will give an in-depth explanation on training your Goldador, raising your Goldador from a puppy, grooming, health care and everything in between! "The Goldador: A Complete and Comprehensive Owners Guide to: Buying, Owning, Health, Grooming, Training, Obedience, Understanding and Caring for Your Goldador," by Michael Stonewood is the perfect purchase or gift for a first time Goldador owner. This guide includes sections on caring for a puppy, breeding, health care, training, the basic cost of owning a Goldador and much more.

Download or read book Intelligent Disobedience written by Ira Chaleff and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Torture in Abu Ghraib prison. Corporate fraud. Falsified records at Veterans Administration hospitals. Teachers pressured to feed test answers to students. These scandals could have been prevented if, early on, people had said no to their higher-ups. Ira Chaleff discusses when and how to disobey inappropriate orders, reduce unacceptable risk, and find better ways to achieve legitimate goals. He delves into the psychological dynamics of obedience, drawing in particular on what Stanley Milgram's seminal Yale experiments-in which volunteers were induced to administer shocks to innocent people-teach us about how to reduce compliance with harmful orders. Using vivid examples of historical events and everyday situations, he offers advice on judging whether intelligent disobedience is called for, how to express opposition, and how to create a culture where citizens are educated and encouraged to think about whether orders make sense. --

Download or read book Beyond Obedience written by April Frost and published by Crown Archetype. This book was released on 2010-06-23 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Obedience is a revolutionary new training program for you and your dog from one of our country's foremost animal advocates and holistic practitioners. The idea that your canine companion is a fully emotional being and acutely sensitive to your changing feelings and moods is the foundation of April Frost's original and highly effective training program. One of the most difficult aspects of training your dog is communicating your intentions clearly. Beyond Obedience is the first book that works on the way you communicate with your dog, providing you with the necessary tools to truly understand how your dog's mind works and, therefore, how you can create an effective and mutually satisfying relationship. Drawing on her extensive experiences as an animal behaviorist, Frost teaches you that training your dog should not be a tedious chore limited to exerting physical and psychological control over an animal's drives, but instead an enriching and spiritually fulfilling experience--gratifying for both human and animal. Frost discusses such essential concepts as mutual respect, unconditional love, mental and emotional discipline, and your expectations and priorities. She shows you how the insights gained from working with your dog can have positive, far-ranging effects on many areas of your life. Beyond Obedience revolutionizes dog training by addressing the spiritual, physical, and psychological needs of dogs and people, teaching them to communicate effectively through powerful techniques, including visualization and energy work, and offering them valuable insight into the emotional bonds that enrich the lives of animals and their companions. Guidelines Dogs are born knowing how to bark, bite, dig, chew, chase, jump up on one another, eliminate when they need to, and snarl when they feel threatened. It is a challenge to get a dog to suppress or modify his instincts in order to make human existence more pleasant. If the dog reverts, you need to remember that these acts are not malicious; the dog is simply doing the best he can with information he has been given about living with and behaving in a socially acceptable way toward a totally different species. Dogs can learn whatever you can find a way to teach them, so long as it is within their physical capability to perform. Dogs, like humans, take the path of least resistance; they do only what works well and easily to satisfy their needs and desires. If it is a self-rewarding move, they will repeat and escalate the behavior, whether that behavior is in harmony or conflict with your wishes. Every dog has its own point of motivation, a trigger that will evoke a response and awaken its desire to respond to its human.
