Good Dog!
Expert training tips and well-being advice to make life with your dog a walk in the park.
Enrich your dog’s life with Good Dog! – the training and welfare subscription for dogs of all ages.
Good Dog! is delivered straight from the dog training and well-being specialists here at Guide Dogs. It’s the perfect 12-month subscription that supports the relationship between happy, well-behaved dogs and the owners who love them!
We’ll be revealing some of the secrets on what makes our guide dogs so well-behaved, as well as expert advice on building the bond with your dog, in the form of easy-to-follow videos, seasonal information packs through your letterbox and monthly emails. And of course, by subscribing, you’ll be supporting our life-changing work for those living with sight loss along the way.
How does Good Dog! work?
- For just £10 a month you will receive advice and guidance from our expert trainers and dog care specialists, step by step training videos, new ways you can enrich your dog's life and gifts for you and your dog in each mail pack.
- The information you receive will use the same techniques as our world-leading dog training programme that has been evolving over the last 90 years. This is constantly being improved and delivers the highest standards in dog training and welfare producing top class dogs that are ready to change lives with their new skills.
- At Guide Dogs we use reward-based training methods (or positive reinforcement training) and part of that would include the use of a clicker which you will receive in your welcome pack.
What’s included in the subscription?

Good Dog! has been wonderful for Finn. I was so impressed with the packaging and contents when it arrived, but I’m even more impressed at how much Finn has learned in such a short time. I’m so proud of him. I’ve never trained a dog before, but we’ve both really taken to it and Finn is loving every minute!
Is Good Dog! right for my dog?
Good Dog! is suitable for dogs of all ages, whether you’ve welcomed a new puppy into your home, or you have a golden oldie – there’s something in Good Dog! for every owner.

Anica and Lassie
Anica was 11 when she was diagnosed with Cone-Rod-Dystrophy.
Over the following years her sight deteriorated and while she successfully completed her masters and PhD, she found travelling for work was a huge struggle.
But with Lassie by her side, Anica’s regained the independence that’s so important to her. “Having a guide dog changes people’s lives. It might seem like a small thing to go to the shops, but when you can’t see it becomes a big thing. With a guide dog, you can gain independence, you can get a job, you can find a purpose in life again.”
