Empowering Veterans Through the Love of Dogs

We believe pets are family.

That’s not just our philosophy, it’s how we live our lives.

We believe it’s pretty simple, companionship makes us better people.

It helps us lead healthier and happier lives.

And the unconditional love, loyalty, and support between a rescued dog
and their new parent is one of the best bonds around.

But being a new pet parent often comes with a lot of questions and not many easily available answers. That’s why we focused on ways to make building that bond fun and effective.

Everything is paperless!

Never worry about searching for your bud’s adoption records, shot info, or that slip of paper you wrote the next grooming appointment on.

Resources at your fingertips!

From the best local service providers to new products, great dog parks, and a marketplace of over 9,000 quality items for your bud, we’ve taken the guesswork out of what to do.

Community of pet lovers!

Engage with your fellow pet parents and experience a supportive community there to share achievements and encourage growth

GOLD LEASH K9 started on one simple idea: more dogs like our amazing Rook need help finding their forever home.

Resources and support make all the difference in saving and changing lives. That belief is what has driven us to build out the complete circle of care. We re-envisioning how to give pet parents what they need to lead their team and live a thriving life together with their best bud. And from that, we created The Pawsitive Path Program.

The Pawsitive Path Program is offered through our exclusive partnership with Sierra Delta, a veteran-centric organization utilizing a strengths-based approach to assist veterans as they obtain their life buddy and work to empower themselves.

“The hours of training, learning how each other operates, and taking steps into the world together have all been completely worth it. Leland has truly helped me get back into the 'normal' world, and has been my tether to healing and moving forward. There is no doubt in my mind that we were meant to be together from day one."
