Why: to cover this website and other group costs
We are a group of folks dedicated to facilitating the Service Dog lifestyle.
We offer training and support for disabled people who choose to increase their independence with the use of Assistance Dogs.
Do you want to know more about training a Service Dog? Join us & meet service dog handlers, trainers, owners, & enthusiasts interested in expanding their knowledge of how dogs can help humans. Share experiences, ideas, or even help someone find a special dog to mitigate their disability.
Interested in Therapy Dogs? We don't certify, but we can get you started with basic training and point you in the right direction.
Not sure if you're interested in Service Dogs or Therapy Dogs? Check out our page describing the difference in our About Us pages.
