Openings for Match Making and program dogs available: Service Dogs Tailored to Your Needs!
We currently have 7 - 8 openings for our match making program and program dogs available! We carefully select dogs (8 weeks to 2 years old) from humane societies, rescues, and rehoming situations.
Each dog undergoes thorough temperament testing and vet checks to ensure they have the stability, confidence, and work ethic required for service work. We then match each dog with a handler based on their specific needs, budget, and lifestyle.
Our professional training covers:
• Psychiatric alert & response (PTSD, CPTSD, anxiety, autism)
• Medical alert & response (heart rate, blood sugar, blood pressure, seizure)
• Mobility assistance (light and heavy tasks)
• Hearing assistance
• Sighted guide tasks (leading or directional)
• Inquire about other tasks not listed
*Note: We do not currently train guide dogs.*
Choose between three training options:
*Owner training with my assistant virtual or in person
*Started Service Dogs (1-1.5 years): Includes basic/advanced obedience, socializing, exposure, potty/crate training, public access, and task foundations. Comes with 1 week of handler training, go home bag, and service dog in training vest.
*Fully Trained Service Dogs (2-3 years): Customized to handler needs, covering all aspects from obedience to comprehensive task training. Includes 2 weeks of handler training, go home bag, and a service dog vest.
Program dogs are those whose handler fell through no fault of their own. They have passed temperament testing and are working on basics, potty training, crate training, and socializing/exposure while awaiting a new handler, as every dog is specifically trained to their handler's needs. Note: Program dogs are limited and may not be available often.
To ensure accessibility, we offer flexible payment plans after an initial deposit, especially for individuals on disability, Social Security, veterans, teachers, first responders, EMTs, low income, students, and more.
Each dog placed through our program includes:
• Careful temperament testing and selection
• Veterinary checks
• Professional training foundations
• Lifetime trainer support
• 1-2 weeks of in-person handler training
We also provide transportation options across the U.S. Pick up your dog in person or arrange to meet halfway if requested.
📍 Located in Oklahoma, we place dogs throughout the U.S. We are open to exploring placements in Canada or outside the U.S. (not guaranteed).
