Owner-Assisted Service Dog Program
K-9 CINB Working Service Dogs strives to provide a unique Owner-Assisted service dog and support program. This program is ideal for handlers who are looking to raise and train their service dog within their own home, and have the ability to travel to training once weekly for obedience and public access classes. We have team members on hand that will guide you through understanding your rights as a service dog handler, and assist you in training from puppyhood through to graduation as a Service Dog Team. We have several options for training depending upon your unique needs, how far away you live, and whether you can travel to training. We are there with you along each phase of training during the first two years of your service dogs career.
If you are thinking of purchasing a new prospective puppy K-9 CINB can help by pointing you to approved breeders that have a record of placing service dogs. The Inn will also help you decide what type of dog meets your needs and would provide the best chance of success for you. Training your prospective service dog begins at 12 weeks of age. It is a process that lasts for a period of 2 years and includes proper puppy socialization, basic obedience training, advanced obedience training, task training, and public access training. Full service dog status is given to dogs who are between 18 and 24 months of age with full health clearances (hips, elbows, eyes, and heart) who have passed their Service Dog Public Access Exam.
If you are interested in training a dog you have already purchased, you will be required to come for a temperament evaluation to determine the dogs suitability for service work. Your dog must show confidence and sociability with adults, children, and other dogs, We will look at their age, temperament, health, personality, and work ethic when considering their suitability for service work. Any questionable behaviour will be an automatic failure. The purpose of a service dogs is to aid their handlers and potentially save their life anywhere they go- they must display appropriate behaviour and etiquette when doing so.
