My whole outlook at dog training and owning a pup has changed since I started with your membership. I'm much more open to just let Lucy be Lucy, and work with a much more open frame of mind while training. More of a mindset of let's have fun and see where this takes us!
Nancy B.Member and Dog Mom to Lucy 
I love this dog community! I have only positive words for the education and experiences I have gained since becoming a member of Golden Dog Adventure Co. Traci and her team go above and beyond finding the most knowledgeable dog educators in the area who have good values and want the best for people and their dogs.
April H.Member and Dog Mom to Bowen & Lila
As a member, I’m able to participate in the monthly online learning series. What sets it apart is that Golden Dog brings in respected professionals from the area and carefully partners only with trusted experts. I’ve seen firsthand the difference this training makes for both dogs and their humans. Dog guardians gain confidence and feel supported by the empathy of the group and trainers—it truly creates a sense that you’re not alone in the journey.
Chris M.Member and Dog Dad to Dexter
My fearful reactive guy has come sooo far, but we still have a lot of work to do. We just had the most AMAZING experience with Monica Allaire-McMahon of Barrington Barks and Behavior, a partner of Golden Dog. Thank you to the Golden Dog team for creating this great space providing all of these wonderful experiences and access to all of these wonderful experts.
Michelle M.Member and Dog Mom to Ruby & Brutus
So thankful to be able to bring my Paige on these walks. Paige is very shy and very wary of humans from having been born feral with zero human contact for the first months of her life. These walks have helped her confidence so much from having solely positive experiences being around other dogs and their human guardians. Everyone is so nice, respectful and understanding that Paige just needs a little extra space.
Allie T.Member and Dog Mom to Paige
I am so glad that I have found this group! I love the activities, the people, the pups and really the community of like minded dog people! I had a great time yesterday at the coast for some hiking and swimming! Oh and don’t forget the ice cream stop too!! Thanks for the great pictures… that is an extra bonus.
Kristen P.Member and Dog Mom to Mack and Tavo
Golden Dog Adventure Co. has helped our dog's confidence grow so much over the last year. Cody enjoys going on the outings, and now gets so excited when he sees Traci and Ray at the check in table. He has been able to experience so many new environments and loves seeing his dog friends and their people.
Jayme T.Member and Dog Mom to Cody
We discovered Golden Dog after adopting a young dog following years of having senior dogs. We loved the idea of introducing him to new places, experiences, dogs, and people, and after attending our first Pop-Up Walk to Mt. A, we were hooked. As we continued attending events and getting to know the community, we came to value the club more and more. The resources available to members have been invaluable, and we’re excited to see what experiences and learning opportunities the coming year brings.
Terrie H.Member and Dog Mom to Rocky
I joined Golden Dog community just about a year ago and have enjoyed getting to know people and their pups along with building better skills and knowledge for my time with my own dogs. I have grown as a dog owner and continue to grow. This experience has been a very positive one and has allowed me to take my dogs on different adventures to help enrich their lives. Very grateful for this group!
Dawn D.Member and Dog Mom to Reggie & Luna
Golden Dog Adventure Company has been a great resource for my family. We have connected to wonderful experts that we may never have met if not for Golden Dog. Traci, Ray, and the crew are very friendly and make every event an amazing experience for both people and pups. We have met so many great people through the events. It really is a community that cares.

The variety of events, the opportunity to talk to experts virtually, and the overall group support has been greatly appreciated. All the events I have attended are very beneficial and very welcoming. I look forward to being able to participate in more of these opportunities in the future.

After joining Golden Dog, my parents and I were inspired to adopt Juniper, a dog who was completely shut down in fear when we first met her. With the support and resources from the Golden Dog community, we felt confident taking on the challenge. Through events, I’ve learned what helps Juniper feel safe and confident, and watching her slowly open up and show her silly side has been incredible. Golden Dog has not only helped Juniper grow—it’s helped me overcome some of my own social anxiety, make friends, and try new things I wouldn’t have otherwise.
Eryn B.Member
Golden Dog has been great for my boys and me. Great social events for my Dane and also exercise activities for my Belgian. Highly recommend getting involved, all the people that attend are fantastic too!

How to Choose a Qualified Dog Trainer: 11 Questions to Ask
Choosing a qualified dog trainer isn’t as simple as finding someone who loves dogs or has years of experience working with them. Dog training is largely an unregulated industry in the United States. There is no single government-mandated education, certification, or licensing standard someone must meet before calling themselves a dog trainer. That means anyone
