service dogs

Each of these service dogs has a story. Click on their picture or name for photos!

Kaya, a Golden Retriever, was our first dog we trained. Kaya is working outside of Houston, TX for an 8 year-old girl with special needs. Kaya learned to "save" my wife Stacy as she went in the ocean about 50+ feet from shore. She is a brilliant, loving dog that will serve well. Recently, we learned that Kaya is credited with helping the young girl to learn to walk on her own.

Kleo, the Chocolate Lab, is working near Pismo Beach, CA with a young boy as an emotional support service dog. Kleo has the most energy of any of our dogs and is delighted to join you on the bed or couch at a moments notice. Kleo is a perfect match for her client.

Kota/Kalele, our second Golden, has finished her medical training and has relocated to Visalia, CA. There she is responsible for monitoring life-supporting machines at night for an 11 year-old. Of all of our dogs, Kalele has the most tender heart. She snuggles, comforts and gives kisses 24/7. Her loyalty and love will serve her well.

Fitz, a Labradoodle, has finished his training (07-2019) to work with a college-age student. He is a ball of fur that houses a beautiful and funny personality. He makes us laugh each day. He will made a perfect service dog for his client as senses emotion, medical needs and reacts accordingly. Fitz, is currently working and reports are he is a superstar!

Winston, a Goldendoodle, is just 7 months old (2/24/20). In about three months Winston will be ready to work in Kansas after he completes final medical training. Winston already proves to be, not only a delight, but a very intelligent puppy. Winston knows and responds to: Sit, Down, Wait, Shake, Come, Release, Up (for hugs and kisses), Gentle (while eating treats), Help, Steady, etc.. As with our last three dogs, we hand feed and water for the first several weeks or so to build a strong bond. UPDATE: Winston just turned one year old (June 24th, 2020) and is currently working in Kansas. Reports are he is the perfect service dog for his client.

Daisy, a Labradoodle is currently 13 weeks old (June 25, 2020). She is just starting her training to become a service dog for an 19-year-old in Utah. In three weeks, Daisy has learned; sit, down, wait, ring her doorbell to go out, wait at the sink for water and give kisses on command. Her coloring is chocolate, vanilla and caramel, Daisy is as smart as she sounds delicious! Daisy will be with us until she is about one-year-old.

Take a look at Kaya starring in her own video series. (OK, there are some other dogs in there as well)
