What is recall!? Recall is when a a dog returns to their person when called regardless of situation
or distractions. Recall is one of the first commands we emphasize with our dogs and is absolutely critical for their human companion as many of our recipients rely entirely on their service dog to safely walk or get up from a seated position. Successful recall ensures that the service dog can explore or be apart from their companion when appropriate but know it’s time to go back to work when called. Recall is also critical to the safety of the dog so their companion can call them away from a potentially dangerous situation ( traffic, other animals etc.). We teach recall through practice and reward, celebrating the dogs accomplishment when they listen well to their commands. Here is good boy Banks showing us his recall practice!!! 🐾🐾

Penny is looking for her furever home!!!
*****PLEASE SHARE********* Meet Penny!! She is looking for a forever home where she can run, relax, and enjoy her favorite hobby: snuggling. This sweet girl is a senior retired service dog. She is a 6-year-old Great Dane German import with a birthday of 3/14/2018. Penny would be best placed in a local home where she can be the only dog.
Occasionally we place dogs that cannot complete our service dog program or retired service dogs with families as Perfect Pets. Most retired dogs remain with their recipient however on rare occasions they are returned to SDP. Returning a retired dog to SDP is an extremely difficult decision for recipients and we ask that everyone respect that. Many of our recipients live with debilitating and progressive conditions and coming home to SDP is the best decision for the recipient and the dog. We always welcome dogs back regardless of the reason.
Our Perfect Pet program is BY APPLICATION ONLY and you can apply at the link below. Adopters will be vetted and must be able to assume the financial responsibility of caring for a senior dog. We are currently only place perfect pets in New England and New York. Serious inquiries only please. To learn more about our Perfect Pet program please see our post from December. Let’s find Penny her furever home!!!

Great Danes are quick to grow big, but slow to realize they have! Minnie and Mickey haven’t quite figured that out yet!
