Service Dogs
   

  Service dogs can help people with all different types of needs. They can help people who are mobility impaired, blind, deaf, autistic, and many others. A service dog not only performs tasks for these people but also can act as a social bridge.

 

Assistance Dogs for Autism

  We can help train dogs to assists children with autism. We don't have a long waiting lists like most companies. We like to work closely with the family to help focus our training on the individual needs. Common tasks taught are nudging to break stimming, applying pressure, taking a card to get help, tethering, Search and rescue, but a big part of what these dogs do is providing a social bridge that allows children to interact in ways they wouldn't before.

 

Assistance Dogs for the Mobility Impaired

Dogs can be a huge help for people with mobility issues. Everyday tasks can be very challenging if you are bound to a wheel chair. Dogs can help simplfy your life by grabbing dropped objects, opening doors, pulling the wheel chair, turning on lights, getting help, and many other tasks. 

 

How to Get a Service Dog

The first step is to give us a call so we can get the process started. Once you give us a call we will begin a series of conversations going over specific needs. We will need to know what your hobbies are, daily routine, and activities you like to do or would like to do in the future. Next we will begin the puppy selecion process. Sometimes an older dog may be best or we might need to start with a puppy it all depends on your prefences. After we find a dog we will begin training starting off with socialization and basics. When the dog is really solid with the basics we will begin task specific training. The training can take anywhere from 4 months to a year depending on the dog and what tasks we train. During the trainnig we will meet several times so you can see progress and get accustom to the commands. Lastly, when training is finished we will work together for several days going over all the commands and showing you how to work the training into your life. The costs for training is 650$ per month plus cost of dog and its upkeep. We are working diligently to gain sponsorships so if you are unable to afford training you may be able to qualify for sponsorship. Contact us today to begin the process.
