Service dogs and dogs that are specially trained to provide assistance with specific tasks can greatly enhance the lives of their people. Many times these dogs make the difference between their person being home-bound and getting out into the community and being self-sufficient. We offer limited spaces for service dog coaching, where our trainers will guide you through the training process, design specialized curriculum based on you and your dog's needs, and offer one-on-one training. Very limited spots are available, so contact our trainers if you are interested. Riley's Angels does not train guide dogs (seeing eye dogs) or seizure alert dogs.
