		<description><![CDATA[ Your golden retriever puppy will be curious with every new person that comes across his path. The natural instinct of most puppies is to pull you toward a person to say &#8220;hello.&#8221; Don&#8217;t make the mistake as a puppy owner by assuming every person on the street will be just as excited about your [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ 0 to 7 Weeks: This is a period when the environment opens up for a golden retriever puppy. His eyes and ears are excited to experience the sights and sounds of the world around him. This is a strong socialization period as a bond grows between his litter mates and mother. These bonds lead [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ The majority of golden retriever puppies contract some form of internal parasite either before or shortly afterbirth. Although this may sound repulsive to you, it&#8217;s a normal part of being a dog. There is no need to be excessively concerned, provided you have your puppy checked and treated promptly. Left untreated, intestinal parasites can [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ A 1996 study with dogs investigated a growing misconception among some trainers and veterinarians that low protein diets (16 to 20% protein) can improve the behavior of hyperactive or aggressive dogs. These were dogs that had formerly been fed what was erroneously called a high protein diet (28 to 32% protein) on a dry-matter [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Ear cropping is by far the most controversial of the elected procedures. Many veterinarians who have no problem with tail docks or dewclaw removals do not crop ears, and some are lobbying the American Veterinary Medical Association to condemn the procedure.
 Ear cropping entails slicing an anesthetized golden retriever puppy&#8217;s ear flap to a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Everyone has a little bedtime ritual. For children, it&#8217;s toothbrushing, stories, and lights-out. For their parents, it might be pillow fluffing or putting on satin pajamas. For Golden Retrievers, it&#8217;s pawing the ground - or the carpet - before settling in. Some dogs&#8217; routines are so precise that you can tell even before they [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ No one would mind if their Golden Retrievers only humped other dogs at the appropriate mating times. It&#8217;s how they reproduce, and if their level of discretion leaves something to be desired, well, dogs will be dogs. But some dogs aren&#8217;t very selective about the objects of their affections. They&#8217;ll try to hump arms, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Unlike horses, Golden Retrievers do not sweat through the skin; they sweat through the tongue and nose, so that when a dog is panting, he is not necessarily thirsty. He is just sweating. Naturally if exertion makes a dog pant for long, he loses fluid, which he will have to replace by drinking water. [...]]]></description>

For example, noise pollution is actually more of a problem to dogs than air pollution. Honking horns, sirens, airplanes, sonic booms, and crowd noises all take their toll on the city Golden.
