BEGINNING SERVICE DOGS

BEGINNING SERVICE DOGS complete STAR puppy training, however special focus is given to what his job will be when he is permanently placed. He will get public access training, providing hundreds of hours in opportunities for your pup to experience over 150 different learning environments and situations. Your pup will be a part of our crisis response team while he is training, but on a daily basis, he will experience everything from public and private school classrooms to hospitals and nursing homes. He will visit college campuses and military bases. From birthday parties to individual counseling and therapy sessions, his training will focus on what you need most. We may include some task training related to deep pressure therapy, fetching various items, self-harming interruptions and calming techniques.

BELLA’S BUDDIES INC. DOES NOT TRAIN DOGS FOR SEIZURE ALERT OR BLOOD SUGAR.

RASCAL

Rascal, born 3/21/2024, will be a task-focused dog who will need a job to do. He is motivated and will do well with a schedule. He is dedicated and persistent when learning new things. He is brave and hasn’t met a human or dog he didn’t like. He uses his nose and would do well with training that goes beyond our STAR program. We think he is a perfect PTS, psychiatric or mobility service dog candidate. He will finish his STAR training in January 2025 but our plans are that he will progress to Beginning Service Training. Please inquire if you are interested in Rascal for service to mitigate a disability. Depending on Rascal’s service-related goals, we expect him to be ready for placement May 2025. $22,000
