Golden Retriever specialist dog training

Is your golden retriever driving you crazy?

Do you find yourself embarrassed about your golden's behaviour in public?
Are you struggling to maintain harmony between your nippy pup and your children?
Do you have a new rescue, or over-excited young dog who just can't control themselves?

When you bring a dog into your home, you have a vision of the life you will lead together. Long, leisurely walks with your best friend trotting beautifully beside you, gazing lovingly up at you as you unclip the lead and both enjoy total freedom and all the joy a dog can bring.

You know it is possible.
Right now though, it's not your reality.
You're feeling frustrated, despondent and lost.
It doesn't have to be this way.

I'm Kate Bond IMDT, FDM, DTC-ADT and I run Good as Golden Dog Training. We offer breed specific tailored support, delivered via the world's first online golden retriever training community

Does this sound familiar?

Simply walking your dog leaves you frustrated and stressed out.

Your puppy is wild, unmanageable and is terrorising the kids.

You can't easily welcome visitors to your home. You've tried training before, but it hasn't worked.

You want to connect and communicate with your dog effectively.

We can turn your dog owning dreams into reality, with breed specific methods that just work
