  • We prioritize public access training, ensuring that our service dogs are well-behaved and confident in various public settings. This includes exposure to crowded areas, public transportation, restaurants, and other environments where service dogs are permitted.

  • Our program adheres to the guidelines set forth by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to ensure that our service dogs and their handlers have legal rights of access and protection.

  • Our commitment to you doesn't end after your service dog is fully trained. We provide continued support and guidance throughout the journey, including follow-up training sessions, handling techniques, and access to resources whenever needed.

  • Lauren is an experienced handler and trainer with lived experience of being disabled and training dogs, giving her a unique perspective and the ability to adapt to the needs of fellow disabled individuals. 

Please Note
Service and therapy work isn’t the right fit for every dog, as these roles require specific skills and temperaments. We assess suitability during your dog’s 10-week class and will let you know promptly if we see any red flags. Because we cannot offer refunds, we recommend booking a private evaluation first if you’re unsure—evaluations are available for $60.
