If it’s a puppy in Basic Foundations Academy, it starts at $40; if it’s a dog with higher needs, for example, reactivity, that can be a little bit higher. It won’t go past $60 for pets.

It generally takes about 3 to 6 months of constant, continuous training outside of sessions to gain public access skills and to be ready in stores. There is no set timeframe for when they are ready for the JIBC testing. Each dog is different.
A trainer will come in free of charge for a consultation and assess your dog to see if it meets the standards for a service dog candidate.

We are a science- based training company,which means we start off with positive reinforcement, trying every positive reinforcement method possible if the dog requires it; then we move into balance as a last approach. We train dogs anywhere from pots, mobility aid, anxiety, PTSD, autism, and a lot more.
