Our Mission

At Golden Hour, we believe in fostering harmonious relationships between dogs and their owners through positive reinforcement training. Our mission is to create a welcoming and inclusive environment where dogs of all breeds, ages, and backgrounds can thrive. We uphold a judgment-free philosophy, recognizing that each dog is unique and deserving of patience, respect, and understanding. Through our innovative training methods, we aim to make learning pure fun for both dogs and their owners. We prioritize positive reinforcement techniques due to scientific research proving they’re most effective, with the result of trust, confidence, and cooperation that’s built to last. We ensure every interaction is filled with encouragement and praise, making Golden Hour a loving and safe space everyone can enjoy.
“Golden Hour is dedicated to the golden’s in my life that have shaped and inspired me to do better, BE better, for the sake of all dogs. I’ve never not loved a dog I’ve met, but it’s the goldens in my life that have motivated me to take the steps to become a certified trainer and truly do what I love. My goal is for training sessions to feel like the best hour of your day and to help you see your dog in a “New Light” when you’re done. For Bruno, Macie, Bella, Zoey and Ruby, Golden Hour is for you, for being everything you were and continue to be for me." -Emily Moore, Owner and Trainer behind Golden Hour

Meet The Trainer

  • Emily Moore- Owner of Golden Hour

    “I am the trainer behind Golden Hour, and throughout the site you’ll see my mascots, Bella and Ruby! For them being my world, and for the happiness, comfort and renewal that the golden hour of the day brings, I wanted my business to reflect that. I strive for my dogs to feel safe, happy and excited to train, and aspire to reflect those same devotions to any dog I get the honor to work with.

  • My husband and I have been living in Hastings, NY now for over 8 years and have 3 beautiful children. Outside of my family and working with dogs, I enjoy spending my free time either reading, crafting or hanging out with my friends. I also wrote my first ever children’s book called, To Love A Dog-The Golden Way! You can find more information here!

  • Along with my passion to work with dogs, I do feel just as eager to work with the ones on the other end of the leash! Seeing the bond between a dog and their owner grow stronger through training brings me such immense joy and fulfillment. Its what every family deserves to have!”

  • “I would highly recommend Golden Hour Dog Training to anyone who is looking for a trainer for their furry family members. My doggos have made significant progress in our training goals in just a few sessions and we are looking forward to continuing our learning with Golden Hour. It is clear that Emily is passionate about dogs, her business, and relationship building with clients. 5 + stars!”

    —Ashley

  • “I am so happy that I found Emily at Golden Hour to help us with Pugsy. She has helped us so much with his anxiety and reactivity. Her enthusiasm and knowledge were evident from day 1. Not only has she helped us to help Pugsy, but she has equipped us with strategies to use going forward.”

    —Yvonne

  • “Emily goes above and beyond for our dogs. They always get so excited when she comes. She has the most fun ways of training for us and our dogs. You can tell she truly has a passion for animals and it shows in her work.”

    -Raigan

  • “My daughter took part in a Paws for Safety class, Emily did a great job creating a fun and successful learning experience. My kiddo learned tons of strategies she can recite and practice and she even now wants to be a dog trainer some day! Emily was very engaging and clearly loves what she does!”
