How to Get a Service Dog
Living with a disability is difficult, stressful, and sometimes scary if your condition triggers sudden changes in your physiology.

Emotional Support Dog, Therapy Dog, Facility Dog, or Psychiatric Service Dog. What’s the difference?
Emotional support dogs, therapy dogs, facility dogs, or psychiatric service dogs define very different categories of dogs. Each one serves a different purpose and has different legal rights.
How to Train a Seizure Alert Dog
Dogs can be trained to alert before a seizure occurs. Studies have proved that dogs can smell that a seizure is about to happen.What People Say!
Barnaby has been such a wonderful addition to our family. He is so wonderful with Allie. They spend a lot of time cuddling and he lets us know when he feels she is upset or having a seizure. The training was spot on! Barnaby has been so well behaved. I have already recommended Medical Mutts to several people. Great people! great service!

The best thing medically is the low alerts. Our daughter isn't always aware, but our service dog is! We couldn't ask for better. He is never wrong and never alerts if there isn't a high or low. They are the best. Our dog is very well-trained and well-behaved. The support system is a must and we feel like we are special and important to them.

I had the great pleasure of working with Jennifer to teach my service dog how to help me keep my balance while walking. Having Multiple Sclerosis I need my service dog for mobility assistance. Furthermore, Jennifer also needed to help my dog be more relaxed around other dogs. She thankfully succeeded at both.
Not only is Jennifer extremely professional and knowledgeable but she is also tremendously personable, easy to work with, as well as very understanding of people facing challenges. I definitely would recommend Jennifer to anyone needing help training a service dog!

I have known Dr. Cattet for several years. Her knowledge of dog behavior and training is exceptional. I have been particularly impressed with her ability to train dogs for a wide variety of service dog applications including Diabetic Alerting for Hypoglycemia.
