Service Dog-Sum of the Parts

Section Two: Building Blocks – Service Dog Sum of the Parts

What parts do you need, for the tasks you want your dog to do to mitigate your disability?

Purpose: The purpose of this course is for you to be able to identify, write a plan for, and train each of the parts your dog needs to know to do the work or tasks you want.

Course Information: You will create your own training plan, and plot it forward on the calendar.  Each week, you will be able to choose from a group of tasks those you want your dog to be able to do.  Each week, you will need to choose the parts needed for your dog to be able to do the tasks you want. Be sure to choose the parts you need for the tasks you want, and put them on your calendar.  Before being able to build a task, the dog has to be reliable with the parts needed for that task.
