Service Dog Training
Purpose-Driven Training for Life-Changing Partnerships
We offer comprehensive service dog training for individuals seeking reliable, task-trained dogs to help assist with daily life. Whether you're starting with a puppy or refining an adult dog's public access skills, our program is structured to support each step of your service dog journey with clarity, compassion, and real-world experience.
​
Our training focuses on:
​
*Foundational Obedience - Solid manners at home and in public.
*Task Training - Custom tasks based on your specific needs. (e.g. medical alert, mobility support, hearing alert, interruption response, scent response and alerts)
*Public Access Readiness - Confidence and reliability in distracting environments.
*Handler Education - Empowering you with the tools to advocate for, reinforce, and maintain your dog's skills.
*Preparing for the AKC Canine Good Citizen tests. (This is not a requirement for service work but strongly reccomended.)
​
We understand how vital a well-tained service dog is - not just in function, but in trust and daily partnership. Our program emphasizes ethical training, legal compliance, and a personalized approach for each handler-dog team.
​
This isn't just training a dog. It's building a working relationship that supports your independence, safety, and peace of mind.

​We offer a range of group classes, including:
​
*Puppy Foundations - Socialization, early obedience, and confidence-building.
