How to select a dog to train as your service dog?
Since we help owners train their own dogs as service dogs, the question of how to pick the right dog comes up daily at our training facility. This is not a job for all dogs - it’s a job for the very few who come with the right temperament. The dogs that do the best love to go everywhere with their person. For them, being a service dog is the best life they could ever wish for.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.
