@Dominic Bommarito In addition to amazing information Tom graciously shares I also follow The Rotty Channel. They have 4 Rotties, ages 6 months to 6 years, and share good info from an owners pov. Lots of what I have gained from both channels can be applied to specific breeds and also strong breed dogs in general. I have rescued pitties for years and recently rescued a husky/pit mix. I thought being a dog owner my whole life and having pitties for 15+ years I could handle any breed but my husky/pit mix is a whole new learning experience. Best of luck with your pup!!!

Wish this would get picked up. Going through each breed would be really interesting. Most don’t do enough research on the what they THINK they want.

Yeah most places are so money hungry they only want people like cesser Millan who mentally and physically abuses the dogs to get them to listen out of fear and putting the dog in situations it can't handle with no knowledge just horrifying corrections.

The breeders in this video are solid. These are the kind of people to get a dog from 👍👌🎯

Who needs a network nowadays? Keep on making these high quality informational and inspirational dog breed documentaries. We are here to watch and support you and soon the big networks and sponsors will come crawling and begging for a piece of this pie. Such a great production, I see nothing but great things coming your way. Keep up the good work my friend.👏👏👏

i just love watching dogs do what they were bred to do. the way they carry themselves completely changes and its just beautiful to look at.

We have a Golden Retriever, and she's been the best dog I've ever had or known. We live on a farm and actually she just kind of adopted being a guardian dog. She's killed several things now to keep her baby's safe. When it's time for bed for her ducks and chickens, she comes back inside. I was surprised that she just knew to bring her kills to me. Her breeder did not breed her dogs for sport like this, so no prior training. She just, is a very smart and sweet dog!

This is exactly whats needed on TV, Dogs doing what they enjoy doing, breeders talking the talk and walking the walk. Love this.

I absolutely loved this. I had a Golden retriever for 11 years and she was my heart. Watching this made her mannerisms make total sense. She was SOO smart, easy to train, perceptive and intuitive.

Totally agree!

This was so good, it is such a shame that it didn't work out. I loved that these breeders worked with the dogs development from such an early age. I would love to see this programming for all major breeds so everyone could see the work that went and still should go into each breeds training. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

If you have more breed episodes I hope you release them! This was wonderful to watch

I have a 20 week Golden Retriever he has gone to Obedience school, our pup was able to ace the class class,but Freddie would get tired and wouldn’t walk he would lay down! This is our third Golden, We are older now and he has so much energy! His breeder didn’t really mess with him.

Obsessed!! Need one for every breed. So we’ll put together!!

very interesting watch, would love a German Shepherd version??

This is like my dream docu series. Please make more!!! How cool would it be to have the same concept applied to a livestock gardian breed, a heeler, a shepherd (border collies but also other types of herding!) or other types of hunting dogs like pointers, flushers or blood trackers (please make one on the standard wire haired dachshund!). You could even do some on sled dogs, like the dogs that run the Iditarod. So many people get huskies for their looks without knowing much about what incredible things the breed can do. I love learning about what jobs popular breeds were bred to do and people really need to learn more about this.

I was raised with goldens. Now as a home owner i adopted my little golden Kevin. he is 5 months old and after watching this i am so far behind in training for the both of us. I knew i wanted him to have a job and ill be trying to help my little dude in following his meaning in life. just need to find something out here in Arizona. great episode though sad it didn't make it to a network.

This has been wonderful, we need more of this in tv. Many owners don't even know what they're bringing home, they just want a cute doggie but not all it carries with. Great job Tom! 💯%

You gotta revive this series!! very cool to see a dog doing what hey love best and to understand what they need as far as exercise and "work" to do especially if they are going to be pets and you understand what they need in order to be happy and a successful relationship and less dogs end up in shelters if people know what type of dog they have and what is required of them to maintain a healthy dog physically and mentally.

Thanks so much for watching, Rachel!

I would binge this show over and over. As a relatively new dog trainer working on continuing my education and slowly building a small business in the field, I'm always looking for stuff just like this to show people and supplement my own training program so people can understand their dogs better. I'd absolutely love to see an episode on Staffordshire Terriers and other pittie breeds.

I get those comment a lot, "why does your dog has to do something for you" , "why can't you just let him be a dog" my answer is always "to prevent my dog for getting bored and distructive and live his live with full potential, dog's are bred to work and they even love it and it's all play and learn to them" Most people will never get it, even iff i answer that.

THIS is fantastic context and concept! Educational and also can change how we value these special creatures. This needs to be picked up!!! A job well done!

Really would have loved to watch episodes like these...

I love this idea because so many people don't understand how much work goes into a hunting dog and how much work a hunting dog needs on a daily basis. If you do another episode, please do an English Springer Spaniel. I'd like for you to emphasize the huge difference between a bench and a working dog. And while the bench looks different, much of the original breeding remains.

You should do this for all dog breeds. At least the more popular ones. I'm sure that there's a huge audience for this.

Best show I have ever seen about the golden retriever.

I send my Pomeranian into the yard to “hide” and then I’ll tell my husky/lab mix to “go get her!” They both see it as a game and they will take turns hiding and seeking. Sometimes I will hide and they will find me!

Very interesting. I got so into it that when it finished I was like "this is suppose to be a 22 minutes video, what's wrong again with my phone" but it was over. Very dedicated couple and you can see that they LOVE there dogs. Great work guy's and thank you from every golden that is lucky enough to be born in your family. Just wow.

this needs to be picked up. It was amazing to watch the dogs do what they were bred to do. I love goldens and it was great to see them do exactly what they were bred to do.

Just wonderful!

Could not have said it better. Loved this and so well done. Your love for dogs really shines through. More of these types of deep dives into a breed, please 🙏

The working and sporting dog breeds have such a rich history, and the Golden Retriever’s is especially so. From Lord Tweedmouth to Tigathoe, and other important kennels of the ‘40’s and ‘50’s that still influence bloodlines today. Field-bred type Golden Retrievers are almost a separate breed now from the show-bred type golden which most people are more familiar with. I’ve had both and they were all lovely and beloved dogs, but not all were retrievers. Our current Topbrass, field-bred girl is into agility and is an awesome frisbee player. It takes a lifetime of dedication and love of the sport to breed and train these dogs. Great, informative pilot, and I think it would be interesting for people to learn more about their own amazing working, hunting, herding, couch companions.

Its so amazing to see this breed doing what it was bred for and not a couch potato! But i also think working/showline splits are important because of this, some people want a more laid back golden (Showline) but still have the retriever, and some need/want a working line thats go-go-go and bred for the hunt. These are some amazing dogs with great working line genetics!

This Is such an Eye opening video. To see wonderful, caring breeders instead of money hungry breeders. Just, Thank you. I truly wish this show about dog breeds worked out. I believe people have forgotten that dogs are beautiful working animals and not puffy dressed up trophies.

Wait this is so cool. Would’ve been a great show!

I really wish Travel Channel or Discovery Channel would pick this up - its really informative, entertaining, awe inspiring, and great education. I love the concept and idea and would faithfully watch it. Tom, as always - you're amazing (and your team too =) ). Still hope and pray some day we'll meet in person. Sorry I can't afford the $20 a month membership as I said in a reply email, but I still support you as best I can - by word of mouth.

Best video to date!!!!! It's truly amazing to watch a Golden doing what it was bred to do!!!

What a great video reminding me of the drive and purpose my retriever has ingrained in him! Now to think of ways to stimulate him for an even better dog’s life and to stop being a lazy couch potato 😂 ! Thanks Tom!

I had NO IDEA!....These Golden's were actually " Retrievers ". I Loved this vid. It shows what a Golden retriever is really used for, how they were bred and why. I have only seen " pets ". I am very impressed.

You should try again with Disney or Netflix. It’s right up their alley right now

Thanks to the videographer! Great little film.

I so wish this was made into a series. I loved every minute of it. Thank you Tom, Cheers, Muffy from Oz (Australia)

What an outstanding video. These breeders/trainers solid people. Their dogs are incredible. Nothing more beautiful than watching a dog work doing what they were bred to do. It's poetry. I'm in love with these GRs despite being a GSD gal.

My dog wasn’t raised to hunt or anything like that.. and she is a sweetheart but damn since she was a puppy she was so good at retrieving anything. Makes me wonder how good of a hunter she’d be.

AWESOME VIDEO !!!!! I've been raising and working Goldie's for over 40 years, and learned great things here. Thank You !!!

This is one of the best videos dog breeding related I ever seen please do more much love from Portugal

This was great! Maybe you could do one on different breeds - It might just help people make better choices when they understand the breeds better. I see so many dogs with issues because they aren't suited to the lifestyle their owners live. Thank you again!

Would absolutely love to see this type of video featuring the English Mastiff. Hell, there's probably a hundred breeds that I'd love to see featured this way! Great stuff!

I really hope there’s a Yorkie episode! It makes people who just want to sit and cuddle with their dogs look dumb. 😂 Some breeds are meant to do more than just be a couch potato. Love this video, Tom!

working golden retriever breeders, like all working breeders, put less emphasis on conformation and more emphasis on character and function. Thank God for working dogs! This is a great piece. I wish you could do more of these on different working breeds. Obviously the working German Shepherd, Malinois and Dutchie, even Rottweilers Dobermans, Patterdales, the list goes on

I loved this video❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️the golden retrievers are so beautiful , I wished this had been picked up because more people need to know what to expect from the breed before you buy. My son did his homework before getting his Labrador from a specific breeder. Ranger is now trained to be a special needs for my autistic granddaughter

Maaaate you have to turn this into a series. It was amazing

Loved this video!! any on Dobermans? I’d love to see it!

I don't know how this didn't make it. Please make more!

Loved it, amazing watching how they grow and develop from such a young age. Goldens are one of the old time favourites for almost everyone. It is a much to watch to any dog lover who wish to have a golden one day. Thanks Tom!

I loved this! I can see so much of my Labrador retriever in everything you’ve show here. From the “watch it” when he’s waiting for me to throw a stick in the water to kicking up birds in the fields we walk in. And he shed hunts with my son a lot, as well. This helps confirm that I’m giving him as close to a working lab experience as I can, thereby keeping him mentally fit, as well as physically. Thank you for sharing this.

We need more of these!

Great video. My family and husband’s family were pheasant and duck hunters. California doesn’t have this going on that I know of anymore. So sad.

Tom you never cease to impress me, yet again i love what you do for our four legged friends. Amazing.

Loved this, should have been a show. I love dog history, love them having real purpose and jobs. Sadly I can't work or compete my dogs because one has issues we're working on but I wanna get them into bite work or fast cat, at the moment we hike every day. I've had people tell me they only walk their dogs like 3 times a week and I feel awful for them dogs, no dog is happy just being indoors sleeping all day.

Thank you for sharing. I hope you're able to do more dog's destiny videos. I love seeing what different breeds are meant to do. My relatives had Springer Spaniels as hunting dogs in northern Minnesota. The dogs were so excited to go out hunting. Positively quivering with happiness. It was like a kid going to Disney.

WoW... this was such an insight into how best to train to retrieve, as well as how early training should start.

Wow!! I absolutely loved watching this!!! I want more of these videos!!!

This is on par with a vice film. We need more professional films, about dogs doing dog things. This is awesome Tom

I would love this show! Networks are idiots! Love all your work Tom.

It is so important to research the breed before getting a dog. Loved the video but it made me a little sad to know what my rescue dog missed as a puppy.

Thanks for working with Thunderstruck. They have an excellent breeding program and have some very impressive dogs.

This was so awesome!! I want more😂

This for sure should have been a show!!!

So very admire EVERY member the group.

im crying because of how beautiful this was!! great job Tom

Incredible and masterful! Thank you for sharing these wonderful, natural scenes!

I absolutely love this, please make this a series. I got an blue heeler mix when I was young and naive and always feel bad she doesn’t get any herding, but now we have picked up frisbee and dock jumping. Our next dog will be a lab since I need a hunting partner and there’s a dog out there that needs a job!

As a person who owns a working Labrador and German shorthaired pointer, this video was awesome to see. great video Tom thanks for sharing☺️

I feel like crying...such a moving video to see these gorgeous animals work. I have a golden and he is lovely but boy do I feel like a crappy dog parent after watching this. I need to DO MORE WORK!

I loved this program. I hope that you can do more like this in the future. I have so much respect for the breeders/ training. They are amazing folks. It takes alot of dedication to train in a Minnesota winter. My husband is an avid pheasant hunter,but retrieves his own foul. He wants a dog for retrieval, but after watching this video I'm not positive we could accomplish that level of training. Well made video!

This was a very powerful video! People get dogs without doing the research and finding out the purpose of the breed. When you take the time to learn the why the breed was created it really makes sense of many behaviors. Dogs need to be doings something they are more like people than you will ever understand. They are living breathing thinking creatures with the need to learn and do something. The more they can learn and do the happier they are. This even applies to breeds like the Chihuahua!

Think I learned about 200 billion things from this and how they train. Truly inspirational, what a brilliant programme. Would be amazing for it to get picked up - why on earth did the network not run with it??!🤦‍♀️

@Veronica Roberts I really enjoy Tom & all the knowledge he shares, as well. I have had dogs my whole life and rescued staffies for the past 15+ years. My most recent rescue is husky/pit mix, Wiley...almost 2 yrs old and he has been incredibly challenging. With you being a fellow strong breed owner and specifically Husky...Do you have any suggestions to better understand and/or train, bond with a Husky? My Husky, Wiley, goes from front door to over 6+foot fence in the blink of an eye and has crazy intense prey drive which I have learned both are normal for the breed. I have gotten creative with keeping him from 'escape' but would love any suggestions you may be able to share. Thanks 😊

Oh man, I miss my Shasta 😥 best buddy I ever had 🐕! Thanks for the video, lots of great memories of our past!

I LOVE THIS! I would love to see longer series maybe starting a pup from the beginning or 6 months later with some of the reactive dogs you worked with. I love this channel and NO BAD DOGS!

Tom! You have so.many good ideas for more series, I cant wait to see what you do with your career, you're so creative! The analysis of dogs at play in the daycare, this series etc. Get it! ❤

What a fabulous episode. What great people these breeders are.

So great to learn about the Golden Retriever breed. I have a Golden Retriever mix. And this has helped me understand my pup.

I hope this will get picked up sometime This would help so much to make all people aware of how to live with dogs

I can wait to see the next one.

Even I'm vegetarian, I loved watching this short film, the little puppies, the effort and love those people put in their work with the dogs. What a sensationell breed the Golden really is! I learned so much about these kind of dogs from this episode, I'm so impressed. Thank you for showing us this film! It was a pleasure to watch 😍🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
