From the very beginning our goal has been to operate a first class, high quality breeding and training program. Good Go Ing is a full time, professional sporting dog business that is owned and operated by the Gooding family. We personally care for all aspects of the operation. Errol Gooding began raising Labradors in 1966. With over 40 years experience in raising and training sporting dogs we have the expertise to provide you with a great hunting companion. With the tremendous amount of experience we have had in professional dog training, we are able to objectively evaluate our litters and prospective breeding stock. Only the dogs that pass our standards for natural hunting ability, physical soundness, temperament and conformation are bred.

At Good Go Ing Training Center we are looking forward to another very successful training season. From the very beginning our goal has been to operate a first class, high quality sporting dog training facility. Good Go Ing is a full time, professional sporting dog business. Our approach has always been to tell people what we can do and how we do it. We will give you all the information we can about our services. From there we feel our reputation and the many important aspects of dog training and care we offer will sell themselves.

Good Go Ing Hunting's first goal is to provide a hunting experience that will satisfy ourselves and other avid sportsman. This will be accomplished with quality birds, excellent wildlife habitat and professional management to create an operation and atmosphere members will be proud to be involved with. We are creating a hunting environment for sportsman looking for an enjoyable and realistic outdoor experience. We have chosen to open the club to members only. We will accept up to 50 members. This will help control over crowding and ensure that our members will have a comfortable and safe environment to hunt and to enjoy the outdoors.

 

GOOD GO ING DUSTY

The Labrador is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a versatile sporting dog and an excellent companion. They are good upland flushing dogs and are the best retrievers on land and water. A well bred Labrador has a strong drive for birds and for retrieving, and is evident at a very young age. They are also a joy to train to be obedient around the house or afield.

 

 

 

GOODGOING TOMMY

An English Setter is an excellent choice for anyone looking for the ultimate pointing dog and an excellent companion. They were a trained bird dog in England over 400 years ago. As one of the oldest and most popular sporting breeds their reputation as a top gun dog companion is well established throughout history. A well bred setter has a strong drive for bird work, this is evident at a very young age. They are also a joy to train to be well-mannered around the house or afield.

 

 

ELHEW POWER STROK

Elhew bred English Pointers are sensible, easy handling bird dogs. They are bred for trainability and can be developed into finished shooting dogs at an early age. We have hunted them in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Montana, Iowa, North Dakota and South Dakota. They work well on grouse, woodcock, pheasants, sharptailed grouse, hungarian partridge and quail. They adapt well to different types of birds and terrain.

Spring is a great time to get your young gun dog ready for this fall. We have a good supply of game birds and good cover to develop your young prospect into an experienced hunter. Our Head Start Program is ideal for introducing young dogs, 6 months and older to hunting and obedience. It is also time to start thinking about continued training for experienced dogs through our Gun Dog Program.

This is a great time of the year to get a new puppy. We have a nice crop of Labradors and Setters ready to go this spring. 

King is quickly becoming a standout sire in our Labrador program. He is crossing exceptionally well with Major’s daughters. King currently has litters with Lulu, Crystal and Dallas, all sired by Major.

We have a few male pups available by GGI Tommy. His is producing Setters in our Shooting Dog Line with great natural ability. They are some of the most talent and trainable setters we have seen.
