Gold star dog training
ABOUT us
Gold Star Dog Training has been in business since 2000. If you don't already own a Gold Star trained dog you have probably met or seen one of our graduates. Gold Star trained dogs can be seen throughout the community fulfilling a variety of roles. They can be found visiting local hospitals, nursing homes and hospice. They are being read to by children in your local libraries and schools or walking in parades and attending fund raisers for local as well as national charities. In addition, to our K-9 graduates being seen in this area our instructors have spoken to audiences about dog training and interaction from local groups to international conferences. Call us if you have a need for a speaker.
Also, if your furry friend has a physical limitation (i.e. blind, deaf or missing limbs) our instructors have experienced these challenges with great success. Let us help you to achieve your goals for your best friend.
