There is a lot to consider when looking for a dog to train as a Service Dog. Structure, health, a strong desire to retrieve, people oriented and confidence. Training time for a good Service Dog is approximately two years. There are so many nice dogs available in the rescue community, it would be beneficial for all if we could use them as Service Dogs. We have found we have to work with ten rescued dogs to find one that can fill the job.

The least expensive and most efficient way to have suitable dogs is to find breeders whose dogs have all the health clearances for their breed, their structure certified as healthy and the strong desire to retrieve. These breeders have donated pups for Puppy Raisers to raise toward their life as a Service Dog. We are eternally grateful.
