Testimonials from some of our advertisers
"Thinking of advertising your dog friendly business with us? Here's some testimonials we have received from other advertisers.
"The Good Dog Guide is great! I advertised with them from the early days of my dog training career and they have been one of the few resources that have truly been worth the investment. I always found the process of getting ads up and running, and tweaking them occasionally, to be really easy. On top of that, Tiffany and the team are so personable, incredibly well organised and are genuinely keen to help that it make them a pleasure to work with. All in all, it’s a no-brainer for me to recommend them. If you have a dog-related business, I wouldn’t hesitate to give them a try.”

"Over the last couple of years of using The Good Dog Guide 90% of my work now originates from this source. In the past I have found advertising expensive and generally unsuccessful. TGDG is good value for money and the staff always helpful. I recommend them, without hesitation.”
Keith from Keith Rowley Dog Training

"I wanted to say thank you for your great service, my bookings definitely increased from advertising with yourselves.”

"Dear The Good Dog Guide. As a relatively new business in puppy and dog training I have found “The Good Dog Guide” to be a unique and very supportive professional team in regards to online/social media advertising. During Covid 19 restrictions in over 18 months to present day, the team has been innovative and diverse in promoting my business with additional advice via email. Well done team and thank you for your invaluable support! I would certainly recommend!”

"Fantastic!! My sister recommended the Good Dog Guide as a perfect place to tell dog owners about Moorview – my bungalow in Salcombe South Devon. From experience I know it is difficult to find suitable accommodation that welcomes dogs. Two days after placing my ad I had my first response – a booking for 2021! Placing the ad was made so easy and the support from the team excellent. Looking forward to welcoming many more Good Dog Guide supporters.

"Dear Tiffany, I would just like to thank you for your help the other day when you called to see if I was going to renew my listing with you.I must say that I never have any hesitation renewing for another year. I run a Sighthound Home from Home Boarding service and this is the 3rd year in a row that I have advertised through The Good Dog Guide. The annual price for my listing really is very reasonable and I have had a steady flow of enquiries from potential clients throughout the time I have been with you.It's always nice to talk to you. Thank you for your professional service.

"I have used various advertisers for my business but no other comes close to The Good Dog Guide. I would recommend them to anyone who has a dog, wants a dog, knows a dog etc! They are fabulous at customer service, replying straight away to queries and if you want to update your listing then you can do this and it will get sorted very quickly. I have had a lot of enquiries through The Good Dog Guide and I am really grateful for their help and assistance. I would not want to lose this wonderful service. If I want a holiday with my dog I know where to come. Thank you so much. Five stars and more if I could."

"When we started our dog friendly bed and breakfast in Beer, Devon we had no idea about marketing and selling it. My daughter who runs it is a cordon bleu cook and I am retired, so neither of us had a clue!! We started by looking on the internet for other establishments like ours and the name that kept popping up was ‘the good dog guide ‘ so that was my number one choice, we did go with some other companies for a short while but due to the amount of guests we have got via the good dog guide we have gradually given up most of the others.) Once we got some guests who started writing on trip advisor we were away. When I look at the statistics that are available from the good dog guide it is quite clear where are guests are coming from. I especially like the ease of the Twitter connection and am following many useful links and they are following us. An excellent service and well done for targeting our exact customers.
Kind regards Jane Ware"

"I just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you. Sometimes it's hard to know what works and what doesn't with advertising, but this morning you put out a tweet about Scotty's Cartoons at about 8.30am, and by 11am I had a new booking from it! :) The client mentioned your tweet and said that's where she found me, so that's much appreciated, thank you. :)"

"The Good Dog Guide has been an excellent place for me to list my business, so much so that I no longer have room to increase the amount of custom I have. I will still recommend your website to anyone looking for Home Boarding as it gives people valued information and plenty of choice. Advertising on here was well worth my initial investment. Thanks Cath. Canine Comforts Tyldesley "

"Since listing my business on The Good Dog guide, I have received a constant stream of great quality leads for my home boarding service. It has completely negated the need to do any other advertising and I now have bookings for up to a year in advance. I would also like to say a big thank you to the admin team who are always so helpful and responsive. Lorna"

"I had been struggling with my Dog Care websites online presence for sometime and yesterday I took a call from Christine from The Good Dog Guide. Within a couple of minutes I was amazed how knowledgeable she was in this area together with her impressive industry insight. Christine carefully explained the benefits of a Gold Premium listing and took the time and trouble to talk through the issues I had and how The Good Dog Guide could assist me.
In only four and a half HOURS after the call, in the same afternoon, Christine sent links to my new Premium page and WOW I was stunned. My new incredibly presented listing with beautiful photos, all my other social media links fully working, and most importantly to my business, that I was there near the top of the search. I cannot recommend Christine enough, not only was she an absolute delight to talk to, but her passion for the business, her efficiency in product delivery, her helpfulness are all shining examples of a what a ‘true model employee’ should be. Christine, your Manager should be very proud of you and so should you. Rarely do I write such comments but you really do deserve praise and really do thank you for assisting in the way that you have."

"We are so delighted with our gold listing with the good dog guide. Within hours of going live the phone started ringing. I secured two bookings and on going enquiry. As a new business you are concerned that your service is accessible to people, but I was reassured immediately that people interested in dog services really do trust you site. The team were so helpful in helping setting up my page I really can't think of a better place to advertise your business."

"We first advertised on The Good Dog Guide when we were just doing (dog friendly) B&B in 2012 and immediately had bookings from this site. We have subsequently expanded into (dog friendly) Holiday Lettings, as well as still doing B&B, and advertise both of these as well with The Good Dog Guide. We consistently get bookings throughout the year, year on year for all three offerings. It does seem that this is a very popular site for dog people to refer to when looking for accommodation in the UK. The guests we have had, as well as the dogs, have all been lovely! In addition when something needs changing on any of our entries this is done quickly and easily, a real bonus when one is managing entries on a number of different sites - also it is not expensive. I am very happy to recommend this website to any doggy people out there, either to find accommodation or to advertise on, it is really good news."

"Thank you for all your help Simon Fuller has been most helpful and contacted me really quickly relating to any queries I have. He has done an amazing job on my page and I have really noticed a difference in the amount of people calling me to book and lots have recently found me on the good dog guide. Its really helping me and I'm so pleased with the service I have been receiving. Simon is so supportive and always adds photos straight away if I need this. Thank you. Brilliant service and highly recommended."

"May I say a very big 'thank you' for your exemplary service. Efficient, helpful, courteous, easy to use both as an advertiser and a user, it's been a massive bonus to me over the past couple of years. I have had such a lot of business come my way because of the Good Dog Guide, and all at such a great price. So many sites want too much money to advertise, and some an extortionate amount to 'be part of the club', but for me as a small business (that doesn't make a fortune) yours is by far the best. Every dog that has stayed has been extremely well behaved - I have had no problem at all (in fact the only problem I have ever had was with one of my setters that chewed the corner of a leather chair!!). Thanks again to you Tiffany and all the Good Dog Guys - I will definitely use you again on a future venture."

"We have been with The Good Dog Guide for some years now, both for our B&B and for our self catering cottage and holiday loft - it has been a very successful union. We have received bookings every year from The Good Dog Guide and continue to do so and the traffic from their site to our is constantly high. The Team looking after us on their site is excellent and always helpful, even when I am quite demanding! For doggy people this is a great site and for dog friendly accommodation owners well worth the money."

"We'd also like to say that in the couple of days we have been involved with you we have been very impressed with the quality and efficiency of your service as a company. Whoever designed our listing clearly took time to look at other resources to pull together other images and information which we think demonstrates real quality of customer service, they could have simply juggled around the information we had provided (which was what we were expecting) but the service went further than that. Thank you."

"I would like to say that all the money I have paid out for my listings and banner that this has been money well spent as I have had all that money returned to me 3 fold because of your site I have only been with you a very short time and have had so much business from your site as it is so well known. I have also been with yell.com for quite a while and only had 3 grooming jobs and I am paying a lot more to them so I can safely say after my contract is over with then it will be terminated. So from all at Johns Dog Grooming Services To all at The Good Dog Guide a very very BIG THANK YOU"

"Tiffany and the team have created a fantastic advert for a gold listing from the information I sent them. They reacted quickly and professionally to my initial enquiry. I actually got a customer on the first day of it going live!! As a new business I couldn't have asked for any better service or support to help me get my name out there to my potential customers. I would highly recommend any new doggy business to use The Good Dog Guide team to help you promote your business."
