Atlas has completed his Assistance Dog Training Program and is ready to be matched with his partner! 🐕🦺 He is a kind and gentle soul who loves to be with people, especially children, and enjoys helping people.
At Bark of Duty, we are passionate about training Assistance Dogs to help those in need. We offer Assistance Dogs for autism, mobility, hearing and seizure assistance. We provide professional service and affordable prices on our assistance dog training.
- Bespoke Services: We take the time to work with you through the entire (& free) application process to make sure that your dog is a good fit and tailored to your specific needs.
- Tailored Handover Process: Assistance dogs trained in large programs usually have an intensive handover process and may even be based at their place of training, ie overseas. We provide a tailored handover process right here in Singapore and ensure it is not overwhelming. We teach you how to work with the dog in an environment that is comfortable and applicable to you, such as your home, school or work place, and are with you every step of the way to help integrate your new Assistance Dog into your life. We also provide annual check-ins after the handover process to help ensure your Assistance Dog maintains its training.
- Guaranteed Training: Unlike other programs in the industry around the world, we raise and train our Assistance Dogs in Singapore from the day it enters the program, and not only when they turn a year old. Our dogs are not only fully adapted to our Singapore environment, they receive thousands of hours of training in novel places to ensure they are reliable in the most demanding environments. As a professional dog training company, we can provide valuable advice and assistance on our Assistance Dog’s training at any time. Dogs that graduate from our Assistance Dog Training Program come with GUARANTEED TRAINING FOR LIFE.

What a weekend! 😮💨
For better or worse, immortalising my furry superstars in a reel. 🤩🐕🦺🐕 In honour of Guaraná, the mixed vizsla / slumdog millionaire / Brazilian Beng / favela rescue, and Baymax, assistance pup in training / @nparks_avs & @purelywoof rescue.
Hopefully they will encourage everyone to always look on the bright side of life! To live life to the fullest! To grab life by the horns! And all the other time-honoured adages.

Teaching techniques which are backed by science are effective with many other types of animals. 🐓 🐴 🫏 🐈 🐐
As part of Highland Canine’s School for Dog Trainers Student Excellence challenge, we honed and demonstrated our training skills by teaching a new behavior to animals such as chicken, cat, donkey, goat and horse.
Through the use of classical conditioning, operant conditioning and successive approximations, this chick was taught to peck at only the blue circle 🔵 when presented with both or either the red and blue circles! 🔴🔵 🐓

Thanks to @luca.thegroodle generous donations, Naomi had a great time picking out her fav toys! 🧸 🥎 🪢
Hope you enjoy the process as much as she did! 🐕
By the way, Naomi is up for adoption! She’s a 4 month old Singapore Special and has been in training with us for 2 months. Unfortunately she did not make the cut to be selected and trained as an assistance dog. Contact @purelywoof if you are interested.

🐶🐾 ❄️ Good tidings and great joy from the Bark of Duty pack! 🎄🎁🐕
Update on the foster puppies!
Nala is ready for adoption and is looking for a family who shares her love of life, fun and adventures! She’s sociable, and enjoys playing and exploring. Due to her desire to keep moving, it’s unlikely she will be happy as an assistance dog as they are required to stay still and wait for long periods of time. However, she will probably do well in dog sports like agility and trailing!
Naomi, on the other hand, is quite timid but calmer than her sister. Maybe because she’s the runt of the little, she prefers to stay in a safe space to observe her surroundings before warming up and working through challenges presented to her. Unfortunately she has a heart condition that requires surgery in a few months time. In the meantime, we will continue her training and see how much she’s able to overcome as she has a sweet personality.

Does your dog love to chase squirrels and birds, or rip and de-fluff that new soft toy you just bought, or look for food to steal, or tug at your clothes? 🐿️ 🐦⬛🧸🥷🏼These behaviours can be part of predation, which is an instinctive and natural behaviour.
Finding appropriate and safe ways to engage their prey drive not only provides a healthy outlet for their instincts, but you can harness that drive and build up their focus on you! 🎾🥏🕵️📦
Nala and Naomi are loving all the interesting ways they receive their meals, from puzzle toys, to snuffle mats, to homemade rip-able feeders like this! It provides both physical and mental stimulation for them. And it just beats eating out of a boring food bowl. 🥣

Overcoming fears and building confidence makes for a resilient and adaptable dog! 🐕
Watch Nala the Singapore Special puppy overcome her fear of flashy and noisy electric firecrackers at her own pace. Because the world is not perfect and you can’t protect your furry companions forever and from everything. Teach them the skills to overcome adversity instead. 🐾
