Service Dog Certification
Service dogs increase freedom and independence by providing assistance in everyday life. Service dogs can improve the lives of people with a wide range of disabilities, whether physical, neurological, or psychiatric. If you already own a dog that you would like to be service trained, we will evaluate him or her to determine suitability.
Many dogs have the temperament and trainability for service, but others do not. This is a very interactive program covering on/off leash obedience, AKC canine good citizen certificate, and public training with handlers/owners performing specific service skills and behaviors.
