Carol Reina
Carol has been teaching all levels of competition obedience classes at Golden Grange since 2011. Her dog training career began in 1994 at Staten Island Companion Dog Training. Her first dog Seine, a chocolate lab, was a real handful, but got her hooked on dog obedience! Carol’s golden retriever Joey has qualified for 3 All Stars (novice, open and utility) and was invited to two AKC Classics in Utility and Masters. Joey presently has his UDX3 and OM3 and recently achieved his OTCH, the highest obedience honor a dog can earn.
Carol is also now competing with her 4-year old golden retriever named Grace. Carol and her husband Charles live in Holmdel with their two golden retrievers.
