🎓 Introducing Our Newest Puppy to Lifeline Program Graduate Team: K9 Lifelines Koa & Kiera! 💛

We are thrilled to officially welcome Koa and Kiera as a newly graduated service dog team through our Puppy to Lifeline Program!

After completing their team training and successfully passing their service dog assessment, Koa has become a Psychiatric and Cardiac Alert Service Dog for Kiera. From the very beginning, it was clear this team was meant to be, Koa’s natural ability to respond, paired with her intuition and sensitivity, makes her an incredible partner.

The bond between Koa and Kiera has grown strong so quickly, and we’re already seeing the positive impact they’re having on each other. We’re beyond proud of what they’ve accomplished and can’t wait to see all that’s ahead.

A heartfelt thank you to Koa’s breeder Fly Goldens, her amazing puppy raising team especially her long-term raisers, Tamara and Julia for giving her the foundation to thrive. Your love and dedication helped shape Koa into the remarkable service dog she is today.

Congratulations, Kiera and K9 Lifelines Koa! Your journey together is just beginning, and we’re honoured to be part of it. 🐾💛

Our Advanced Training dogs get a unique opportunity to work behind a cash register. This environment offers excellent real-world training by helping them practice ignoring distractions like people talking to them, calling their name, and the tempting smell of food. It also sharpens their ability to settle calmly in a fast-paced, busy space where people move around them, step over them, and doors constantly open and close.

Shadow, one of our current service dogs in advanced training, did a phenomenal job yesterday on the register. He remained calm, confident, and focused. He ignored compliments from customers, held both in-sight and out-of-sight down-stays, and even maintained his stay when an apple unexpectedly rolled right up to him.

He also did a fantastic job heeling behind a cart and navigating the grocery store with ease. We’re so proud of the progress he’s making!
