Therapy Dog Certification and Training
Become a certified therapy dog handler and therapy dog team
Whether you already work in an area and would like to bring your dog to work with you, or if you would like to volunteer to bring love, joy and peace to others, or if you would like to find employment as a therapy dog team, this course is for you. It's a 5 day course that teaches your dog all the obedience and skills required to be a successful therapy dog. It also provides temperament testing, placement experience, and delivers across the board therapy dog theory on topics such as insurance, the research behind therapy dogs, how to best use a therapy dog, and more.
High Level Obedience Training
3 Days and a New Dog: Training
The training is based on developing a language with your dog. It takes just three days to do so, and at the end you have a dog that will listen, respond and love you all the more. I've never met a dog I couldn't train. No prior training is required. Your dog needs to be 5 months of age and non-aggressive. Check out the attached brochure to see more information.
