Your Service Dog's Training Journey: A Timeline of Progress
1 / Get your dog assessed
Before your dog joins our program, we'll assess them to see if they're suitable for service dog training. Based on the assessment, we'll make a custom training plan for your needs. Passing the assessment doesn't guarantee completion because younger dogs might face behavior challenges. If your dog is at least 1 year old and has the right temperament, you can reserve a spot and pick a start date with our trainer. If your puppy isn't old enough yet, ask us about our Service Dog Preparation Program, which includes 5 private sessions for $450.
2 / Your dog stays at our facility and learns to be your service dog
Once your dog arrives at our training facility, we suggest they stay with us for the first couple of weeks to begin their specialized training. If you're nearby, you can visit your dog on weekends or for short breaks. While your dog is with us, you'll get access to our learning platform so you can be involved in their preparation to become your service dog. We'll also create a Facebook page for your dog, where we'll share updates, pictures, and videos of their training progress. This ongoing connection keeps you engaged and informed, strengthening our partnership as we work together to make your dog an outstanding service companion.
3 / You come to Team Training
Once your dog finishes our training program, you'll join us for 10 days of team training at our facility. Here, you'll learn to work together smoothly as a team with your dog, guided by our trainers. After the team training, you'll take the public access test, the last step to getting your ID and certification letter.
4 / You get Continuous support
Once you're back home, we're here to help you along the way. Our trainers are available for support whenever you need it, ensuring you and your dog work together smoothly.
