The Qualities of Extraordinary Service Dogs
Service dogs are exceptional due to their breed and DNA, as well as their training. The secret to excellence lies in the combination of good genes and great training. Some of the best breeds for service work include Australian Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Australian Cattle Dogs, Labrador Retrievers, and Golden Retrievers,and German Shepherd Dogs that grow to over 40 pounds. Within a week of birth, our team can identify which puppies will make great service dogs. These puppies are then paired with their owners right after leaving the litter. To ensure successful obedience, owners receive training alongside established dogs to understand prompts. Finally, two training sessions away from the household are timed to each dog’s progression and ability.

That’s why we make sure to provide our furry employees with special chiropractic adjustments, as well as pro-biotics, pre-biotics, extra calcium, and high-protein diets. By fueling them with the nutrients they need, we unleash their innate abilities, just like their wolf ancestors. After all, every pooch deserves the best care possible!
