About Golden Touch, Inc.

Golden Touch provides relationship-based dog training and placement guidance using the PAWS™ framework (Presence, Awareness, Wisdom, Structure). We focus on calm foundations, nervous-system stability, and long-term success for both dogs and families. Our work includes puppy foundations, service-dog candidate preparation, and guided placement for purpose-bred dogs. When appropriate, we support service-dog foundation training for tasks related to conditions such as diabetes, cardiac or autonomic events (including POTS), and PTSD, as part of a broader training program. Each partnership is individualized based on age, training level, and support needs. This is an application-driven, support-based process rather than a retail or volume program.

Where do I begin? If I could give 10 stars, I would! I thought I was adopting a puppy, but I got SO much more - I got an incredible new friendship too; a welcomed surprise I was not expecting. Jennifer and her husband, John, truly bless others through their special ministry of helping others. The care they show is personal and genuine and they give unconditionally. You may look for a dog but you will gain two wonderful friends along the way. Jennifer truly puts her heart and soul into the training of these dogs and the PAWS training program. Her years of experience, dedication, commitment and knowledge radiate in her own calm demeanor and personality. She has provided me guidance and encouragement throughout my own journey of finding me my right match. She is truly “The Dog Whisperer”! If you are looking for the perfect dog, there’s no such thing. But Jennifer has the keen ability to match a puppy with the right person. And if you follow her PAWS Training Program, you can get about as close to perfection as one can get! It takes time, hard work and dedication, but it’s worth it! And Jennifer will be there to help along the way.

Cannot recommend Golden Touch Pups enough! From the moment we were connected with them, Jennifer and John were incredibly responsive, helpful, and informative. They made sure we felt fully prepared to bring a puppy into our home and took the time to get to know us so they could match us with the perfect fit for our family. They did an amazing job socializing and raising the puppies during those first crucial weeks, and the puppy we were matched with exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful to Golden Touch Pups and would absolutely work with them again and recommend them to family and friends.

What a blessing it has been to find Jennifer and John and Golden Touch! They both took so much time talking with us and making sure that all our questions were answered during the process of choosing to add a puppy to our family. The after care following her coming home has been invaluable - they are always available for more questions and advice. The work that has been done to lay the foundation for a sweet and very calm puppy is so evident. The care that Golden Touch puts towards their work with dogs is incredible. We've been set up to succeed and feel like we have a partner in the journey of puppyhood and beyond.

We adopted from Golden touch several years ago… And as each day went by our dog got better and better… Wonderful temperament, Great with people, great with kids, easy to train and something dog owners don’t often think about but incredible customer support from Jennifer and John at Golden touch! You can see what a wonderful ecgr “Bunker” is by visiting his instagram site, bunker_the_golfdog !
