Congratulations Tom and Tucker-newly certified service dog team through Operation SaveAVet SaveAPet program of Franklin County Veterans Affairs.
You have been training, practicing, and working together since Tucker was 2 months old. You recently completed the program with Tucker just being over two years old.
Becoming a certified service dog in our program takes the right temperament plus training. Training in manners, obedience, completing public access, and developing task skills. All this is done over time and after two years of age because maturing for the dog is also important.
A service dog does not have to be certified but all service dogs need a sound, non-reactive temperament, manners, obedience and taught tasks that help their handler.
If you are a veteran in Franklin County and thinking a service dog could benefit you, please contact us.
If you are not a veteran, but feel a service dog might benefit you or have questions about service dogs please contact us. We do not have trained service dogs on the shelf waiting to distribute, but we can work with you to help you find a dog with the right temperament and together we can train.
