Inja, the Dog of the Day
Name: Inja
Age: Four months old
Gender: Male Breed: Golden Retriever
Home: Belgium
 
   This is my four month-old Golden Retriever puppy Inja. His name, Inja, means "dog" in Zulu. Inja is the sweetest puppy you'll ever meet. We adopted him when he was eight weeks old and ever since then he has brought a smile to everyone who meets him!

    Inja is already very obedient. He has learned lots of tricks like sit, down, shake, high five, jump up, roll over and play dead. He also walks to heel very well. He is trained using only Positive Reinforcement clicker training methods and he is currently in training to become a therapy dog. When he is a year old, he will be tested and hopefully be certified to visit nursing homes, hospitals, schools, etc.

    Inja is very cute. He has big brown eyes that will melt even the iciest of hearts and he has soft, fluffy cream-colored fur. Right now, all his puppy fur is slowly falling out and his adult coat is growing in its place. We can already tell that he's going to grow into a big stocky dog. He has very broad shoulders and long muscular legs. Despite being quite big for his age, Inja is very gentle and loves playing with the smaller dogs. His best friend is a white Bichon called Rosa and the two spend hours chasing each other round the garden.

    Inja is quite a sporty dog, he loves running, but most of the time he just likes to flop down in the garden and bask in the sun. However, when it snows, he loves running around in it and chasing the snowflakes! It's very funny to see! When he meets new people, he's very good and never jumps up. He just goes and sits in front of them and wait to be petted. Inja is a very people-orientated dog, and goes up to greet every person he meets. Everyone in our neighborhood loves him, as he is very calm and mellow.

    Inja is a very loving dog, he likes nothing better than to flop down on your lap and have his tummy rubbed. He also loves playing tug, running around in the fields during walks and eating treats. Inja does love to eat! His favorite snacks are cheese and sausage. But, of course, he only gets those lovely treats if he's a very good boy.

    Inja has made me so happy and during his life, he will certainly make a lot of other people happy! He's the best dog in the world and I love him to bits!
