Meet our Pack

Penny, our inspiration and the heart of Penny’s Pals, sparked Taylor’s love for dogs and training. Her unique personality ignited a passion for helping reactive and fearful dogs.

Striker, our loyal and playful golden retriever, who breaks breed stereotypes with his goofball charm. He brings a perfect balance to our pack.

Atlas, our field line golden who shatters expectations with a drive rivalling herding breeds. His determination sets the stage for future disc competitions, service dog training, and more!

Kolt, our unexpected fourth dog was exactly the boy we needed. Taylor met him and instantly knew, it was love at first sight and he has been the perfect addition to our family.

It was during our mission to find a trustworthy caregiver for these guys, especially for our particular and wary dog, Penny, that we faced a constant challenge. Recognizing the scarcity of options that aligned with our principles, including handling reactive behaviour, which inspired the creation of Penny's Pals.
