Description
Ch Kawartha's Molly by the sea "Molly".She's a 5 year old Golden retriever from hunting lines in Kawartha lake, Ontario. She's amazing, and I love her to death.
She's my anxiety alert dog, a service dog, she does therapy, agility and a whole bunch of other tricks.
She was certified two years ago, and she has been proven to be outstanding conformation and working wise.
Molly is my amazing dog <3

Can you tell me a bit about her function as an anxiety alert dog?

She alerts me whenever I start to gain anxiety (ex: I have much anxiety when in a room/shop with a lot of people, and I start to panic, and literally break down). Before I break down (cry, shake, panic) she alerts me to leave the room and guides me elsewhere, or when I start to stress out, she nudges on my hand, and I pet her, it helps calm me down.

Same with me...my other goldie was just like yours. They are born with an innate gift to bond with us and know our every mood and feeling. I wish my current goldie was so sensitive. He is...but not like big Zak was.
Is your goldie certified, so she can go with you anywhere you go? If so, where did you have this done?

Most goldens are :3 They are amazing.
She is certified, she has her vest and papers.
I trained her from A to Z (in everything) and she got certified by someone I know who evaluates dogs to see if they are fit to do so.

That is incredible. I wish there were someone in my area who did such things. My goldie has a special gift at least as far as our own relationship is concerned.

Not much of us trainers do it, I'm one of the few who are pretty versatile in training and go in many different categories. One should not train dogs to do this for fun, however. Aww, but all dogs have something that makes them special to your eyes!

My previous golden, Zakary was a Search and Rescue dog. He was amazing. My other goldie Raziel was a field dog, he excelled at anything involving dead things and retrieval lol. My current goldie Razzle, he has this heightened intuitive sense which doesnt fit in with field, obedience or Search and Rescue. He is a more emotionally gifted pup. I always observe my dogs to see what gifts they came with but my town is small and there isnt anything useful here.

That's good! I hope you enjoyed doing SAR with your boy! I know I enjoy it with my dogs, its such a fun thing to do and train dogs in! Field is also very fun, and also pretty easy to teach to a golden P:
It doesn't matter if your town is small, you can always come up with millions of things to train your dogs in! As long as everyone is having fun!

If there were people interested in getting together to DO anything it would be great. This town is primarily old retired folks who really don't want to do much sadly
