Kipp working on Place to transition to DPT, Deep Pressure Therapy placement

This is a fun video demonstrating some of the commands used in Therapy Dog Training. We turned them into a routine that we tech our Therapy Dog Students. It is real fun to learn.

Good Job Kipp!

Here is Kipp working on the Chin Rest.

EINSTEIN PARTNERSHIP

As we begin the journey of the Einstein Partnership, feel free to join us. You can be there for each step we take. As we create this wonderful program, you can follow along here. We are hoping to make a difference in someone’s life through the training of Service Dog Tasks, through our Component Program. We will do this one command at a time, based upon the individual’s need. Come with us as we celebrate the achievements and life of a wonderful dog and share his purpose with others. That purpose is to create great Partnerships between Dogs and their Handlers, either through Obedience Training or Component Training. And together we can show all communities, that dogs and their handlers have earned the right to be recognized for their contribution to society as well trained, thoughtful, conscientious pet owners. Don’t forget to pet the dog!
